If you're worried about price/performance, get a Rossi 92 in .44 Magnum.
.44 Magnum and .357 Mag in a rifle length barrel I understand gain a whole lot over a pistol. 9mm, .40, and .45 do not. Unfortunately, im looking for semi-automatic although I do like lever guns. If there existed an AR in .44 Magnum, Id be all over it. Or in a similar caliber just as common. They made a Ruger .44 Semi-auto carbine for awhile. But, sadly they only hold 3-4 rounds and theyre hard to find.
What do you mean Q Circle10 doesn't state their policies?
They don't say if they'll ship to Maryland.
I have a 9mm AR. At 100 yrds it drops a foot. Good if you want to practice long distance shooting but you dont have a 600-1000yrd range.
How does it compare to .22 LR ballistics trajectory-wise?
I have the CX4 Storm and the Sub2000. They are plenty durable. Not trying to talk you out of the AR though.
Im sure they are. I just prefer metal over plastic, even though some metals like soft aluminum can be more fragile due to being brittle. Just seems a lot of the PCC's like CX4 and Sub 2K have pistol ergonomics. Im more familiar with rifles, so an AR in 9mm would be more familiar to me.
