I’ve only gotten into guns in the past couple of years, and when I had a little more money I bought a pistol to carry and a shotgun for a couple of things. While I’m not planning on buying anything right now, I’m still planning on buying a rifle sometime soon, but what I am debating is if I should buy a 5.56 or a 7.62. From the research I’ve done, if I bought a 5.56 I would want a fairly standard AR model, though I don’t know much at all about the thousands of different variations that exist there. On the other hand, if I went with 7.62 depending on how much I could spend I would either go with a Springfield M1A or a good condition SKS. What would you recommend? Why? Help inform my decision making a bit.
