Im looking for a tatical carbine. I allready have a sks. I have 500-600 bucks and im looking for something in a .223, 7.62x39, 30-06 or 308. I want something tactical. What would you buy?
The Cetme and HK clones are short and reliable. (from what I've heard)
TACTICAL? AR of course. You can hook all kinds of shuff on the carry handle and front handguard. Flashlites, lasers. Aim Point sights, bayonet, night scopes, highbeams for night varmints, a clock for timed rapid fire, can opener and a back scratcher.
CETME isn't being made anymore - the parts kits have run out. Prices are climbing, and build quality was spotty. I'd go with a good solid AK then accessorize it.
Yeah, I don't really see a Cetme/G3 being a "tactical" weapon, meaning I wouldn't want to go house to house with that. I'd stick with either an Arsenal AK(used should be had for that price) or build an AR. Or maybe a MAK-90, those are some nice AK's.
Tactical means, "I want picatanny rails EVERYWHERE, I want it super short, with an LED Light, Lasersight, Compact Scope, Aimpoint, BatteryStorage Stock, Vertical foregrip, Bayonet, Bipod, Tactical Sling, Magazine holder, and to top it all off, a camo paint job." Well that's what "tactical" means to me. If I was you, which I obviously am not, I would start looking at used RockRiver Midlength CAR's. Find something with a 6-position stock, and an A3 Upper in a Midlength Gas system. If it doesn't have a rear sight, buy one, of any sort: Flip up, fixed, a carry handle, whatever. Have some sort of back up sighting system. Also, MAKE SURE that the barrel is chrome lined. Unchromed barrels tend to be significantly less reliable and accurate. If however it is a stainless barrel, you won't have to worry about it.
Another possiblity for less would be to get, (I would never, but for your price range) get a DPMS M4gery. Spending less on a DPMS means less quallity, but not always significant. I figure, I'm spending 3/4 of a thousand dollars, why not pay two hundred more and get something that will rarely missfire.

Ok, I just want to know where you can get a RRA or DPMS AR for $500-$600? Cause when I find this place I'm going to take out a loan to buy them up and then sell them for $800-$900.

RRA is not the same price, I didn't mean that, I said Used RRA/DPMS.
