Which one do you use primarily for WROL purposes? I will talk to this data in the upcoming reviews. I think I know the answer. Mine btw is AR15, sometimes AR10. 

Also state in your comment how prepped up this gun choice of yours is. A "5" rating would mean ready to go: all lighting, optics, slings, VGs, mags, and LBE totally setup [and gun is zeroed ready to fight SB style]. A "2.5" rating would mean your gun is a a work in progress. "1" would mean still in box nothing done with it yet. "0" would mean you have nothing for this!

Feds posing at Nutn trying to see what we are working with. 😂

The Nutnfancy Project

It wouldn't change much but I have no doubt there's FED lurkers with ALL gun content producers...we live in a evil country apparently. I hope you are well btw David, thanks for your support

David Gaines

Hey, I still clicked AR15. I’m not afraid to let them know ;)

Drake Tilson

I’d rate my rifle as 5. 100% ready to go. Here’s my AR set up: Daniel Defense DDM4V7 in 5.56 with: -Cloud Defensive REIN 3.0 -SureFire SOCOM556 Mini2 -EOTech EXPS3-0 -EOTech G45 -Magpul MBUS Pro flip up sights -Geissele SSA-E trigger -all Forward Controls Design lower receiver parts.

Cody Harring

4, have it all the necessities just always wanting to upgrade. Don't think it is a 5 unless you have nightvision or thermal.... which I don't. 😔

S

3.8 on rifle, No LBE yet😞

ChillTheNerd

5, including a variety of digital comms to other parties or the house if needed. 5.56 is relitively light weight for rifle ammo and you can hold a ton with just a few mags. I'm well trained on AR drills so the platform is very natural and reflexive. Comms because I'm defending a neighborhood and my home alongside others and you don't want to fall to FF.

Andrew Baldwin

5. Sling, bayonet and lots of en blocs. No provisions for scopes, lights, IR or anything on a Garand

Gilbert Cuzdey Jr

5, optic, zeroed, shot out to 600 to confirm, sling, light, buis, plate carrier, battle belt, assault pack etc staged.

Rob Miller

5 Actually just added 3x Magnifier Just used it in a competition last week. Got 5 hits on steel plate at 320 yards in 4.6 seconds. No where near first place but ok for a 57 year old with a 3X red dot.

Zambini

Always have one AR is “5” status, then another two that are progressively around 2.5

Joshua Pulliam

4.5- Century Arms RAS-47. Magpul furniture, Vortex Strikefire II red dot in Midwest Industries mount, Blue Force Gear sling, Streamlight TLR-1, 12+ mags ready to go. Need to zero the dot. Had to pull it off to install a new pic rail.

Todd Strelka

I'd give myself a 4 to 4.5 rating. The rifle is zeroed and tested with an optic (Vortex Strike Eagle 1-8x24) and light mounted. I also have a asking on it with plenty of mags and a couple of LBE chest rigs. Points taken off because I have not purchased armor plates.

Kyle Jay

2, but I’m working on making it better. Focusing on ammo acquisitions as well.

Seeker Keyl

Same. Rifle is fine, but no LBE...

John Krywy

5… 5.56mm 11.5” AR SBR, AA piston with my Griffin Bushwhacker 46.

Robert Plested

Ar15 with 18 inch barrel and Wylde chamber. Scope bipod zero at 100 yds. A 2 or 2.5 on custom stuff.

JoMama

4 but ready to rock!

Joe Neyman

3.5 light, optic, backup irons, sling, NJ lame mags, zeroed @100yds. got no LBE or standard cap mags. hence the self 3.5 rating

Hunter Moronie

5, Riley defense RAK-47 with 9 pmags and 10 more mags in 2x m60 pouch in the backpack. Bag also has a group trauma bag, BVM, and I've got a sleep roll I can attach easily, all DMR radios I'm solid Irons out to 250m, plan to be in an urban/city environment working on foot, overwatch, or drones from various positions overlooking the AO. Mag is established.

Blizzak454

Tough choice between VEPR AK and AR. I'd say I'm at a 3 or 4. All have lights, slings, mags. AR has 1-6 LPVO. AK is irons, but gonna put 3x Primary Arms prism on that one. I have an AR micro rig staged and ready at all times. Probably should make a duplicate for the AK.

Bill The Broken

AR is the only way to go - ammo availability to spare parts its the no brainer.

WILLIAM MEYER

Don't have, can't use, a carbine as my eyes are old and I just can't see like I used to. Consequently, I have a rifled slug barrel, and matching loads, for my Mosberg 12ga. This gives me a little room for eyesight error. I can't see them at 400 yards but I can cut them in half at 100.

Younggun995

If I were to start over I'd go sapr. But at the time I started buying, ar10s sucked lol

Jesse A Johns

Mine is an AK at 2.5. I have the optics, light, sling, and mags, But it is only laser bore sighted. The ranges around me don't allow steel cased ammo, so it's been tough to get to the range to sight this in.

Roarke O'BRIEN

My ar is at 4.5 all set up. Zeroed. Only hit I give myself is it's in the window to change battery on the holoson red dot and I haven't yet.

Casey Jones

I’m at 2.5. Zeroed, sling, optics, LBE, war stock of ammo and mags, gtg for daytime ops. I am woefully unprepared for night ops. No weapon light, no nv capabilities.

Firearms Fuel&Fabrication

I actually picked bullpup. It was a toss up between that and the ar15. But I went bullpup because 16" velocities. But cqb maneuverability.... I have both. And either way they are at a 5

Kody Agnoli

5. My tavor is zeroed, and ready to mount my thermal clip on. Also have a white light I could quick attach, but it's heavy enough with the thermal.

MrSottobanco

5. It took a while. It is ready to go.

Steve Dutton

2.5, a strong 2.5. Operator not in SB condition.

Chris Kalla

4. Can go, but might tweak.

Justin Spears

I like to think I’m a solid 4 on my AR’s these days. I don’t have a good mag carrier, I’d be sticking them in my pockets lol. Also don’t have any specialty scope options…just the regular 1x4 and 3x9

Nick Clements

5 BCM AR-15! For the price and the quality you can not beat BCM! Currently getting an AR-10 set up as well.

David G

I would say my setup is between 3.5-4. Sling is currently unattached and all my LBE: plate carrier, chest rig, placards, belt rig and pack are currently being setup and sized. I’m also currently saving to acquire new footwear and proper clothing. Rifle and handgun are squared away, less the aforementioned sling. Optics, mags and ammunition are all set. Per Nutn’s many reviews over the years.

Japheth Aos

or my PSA KS-47 7.62 by 39...

Daniel Herb

4.5 My AR15 has a NITECORE CI7 (white/IR light) with the ATN scope for day/night options. I only have soft pistol rated ballistic plates in my carrier though so probably need to upgrade that.

Robert W Posey

5 on a ar15/556 kit because it's on a plate carrier, but a 4 on an ar10 kit too that's just lbe.

GarageJim_RMB

2.275, I have shot it and zeroed for iron sights, mags and ammo. Have LBV but is not dedicated for the AR-15, multi use.

Jacob Danger

I’m a 5 on ar15 5.56. Ready to go with all necessary gear. I’ve been fortunate enough to attend multiple classes for tactical training and marksmanship

Steven Salina

My WROL AR is ready to go, along with a fully prepped plate carrier and ballistic helmet. Since it also has an NV capable Olight and laser does that make it a 5.5? lol Also, have an AR10 that's ready to go, but my gear is prepped for 5.56.

The Nutnfancy Project

Nice setup Dan! That Thor is still a great option and I have C17 also. Great combo. I have some NV stuff coming incl IR illuminators.

B05T0N22

4 - I’m not sure I’m ever convinced I’m done optimizing the systems

DuginIN

5 AR15. Shotgun if appropriate 5. May want to limit range.

Conrad

No SUB2000? No lever action .375mag? Haha just kidding

tim hanley

I'll go with 3.0 (maybe 3.5?). Rifle (AR), red dot, irons, mags/ammo all gtg. No WML, no LBE. Sidearm/duty belt is squared away. Functional on comms. Zero community support in place.

Mark MacBayne

I have a mini-14 and love it, but wrol it's an AR15 all the way. I'd rate my set up as a 4. I have the sling, lpvo 1-4 (should upgrade), light, mags, lbe w/plates. I'm running my sidearm horizontal on my lbe, but considering a battle belt. Would appreciate any thoughts from the community. Rate myself a 4 due to no NV capability.

Txgunner69

4 just need small tweeking to be a 5

Brievet

Reverted to 2.5 because I haven’t updated zero after upgrading optic.

Todd Rutherford

Maybe 3.5 on the 15; more like 3 (optimistically) on the AR-10. I'm thankful to one of my sons who is in LE for pushing me to get suppressors and optics more squared away - still need work on LBE, spare parts, etc. Of course, I never feel like I have enough rounds or mags, but I'm betting most here feel that way.

kylenor

So my AR is my wrol choice, however it's about a 3.0 right now. I want to put an lpvo on it. It currently has a Primary Arms red dot. My Sig Spear LT in 7.62x39 is a 4.0 right now. But it would not be my wrol gun because of the caliber.

Cheesewell

Currently only at a 3. Running my FNAR baby! Everyone else with me probably be running a AR or AK, possibly a shotgun or two.

TheOlsonOutfit

4, I guess. Rifles are squared away, zeroed, and thoroughly tested. Lack of LBE is an issue though.

Guy Actual

5, lol. I have multiples setup for specific needs all completed. DMR, SPR, CQB, MBR, LR, and one that uses hand loads that will shoot inside a dime at 100 yards. (Largest investment with lots of post work and a custom sized bolt to match the barrel/extension.) FYI, if anyone has not checked it out the new Arken LVPO is Amazing!!!! Got mine the other day, and it's the second best LVPO I have ever used, with the Viper HD 1-10 being the best. On the Viper, the bezel just disappears when looking through it. The Arken can get close, but not all the way. But, the Arken is sub $300 and HIGHLY recommended.

Andrew Koch

5, However I would like to eventually get into night vision and add an IR laser, it's just so expensive. Trying to stock more ammo up before the next election instead of jumping into the night vision world.

Joseph

My first go to is a 16” AUG NATO. Goal is to have it set up as a general purpose rifle. Currently have a ACOG fiber version and a Streamlight. I would say it’s 2 out of 5 because I want a suppressor, IR laser and it’s not sighted in. I chose the AUG because I want a gun that suppressed is the same length and a collapsed m4 carbine. Chose the 4x ACOG because it’s a lot of clarity and magnification for the weight and size especially being space limited in a bullpup. I’m actually running irons on this gun which surprised me that they were doable. Matech rear sight with magpul pro front. After I get my night vision setup for this gun I’m running a LED battery powered ACOG so I can put a RMR forward on the optic for passive aiming through nods. Suppressor, going with the Surefire RC2 micro. Currently I have surefire warden on it with surefire muzzle break. I also have 4 AR’s for parts commonality. M16A4, colt M4 carbine, BCM recce and a DPMS fixed carry handle

Jordan Gelinas

4, several setups at 4 level, I never feel like anything is finished or “5”. I’m always swapping or upgrading things.

Lee Harrell [W5GCF]

I’ve got many AR-15s rated 5. Four are dedicated for each family member and twi for backup and/or trusted friends. All in, I’ve probably got two dozen or more that are rated 5, but these six are always ready to go for WROL along with ready-to-go armored chest rigs with IFAKs, loaded magazines, knives, lighting, gloves, etc. Two battle rifles are also dedicated to WORL readiness. I’m way overboard and know it, but we are fortunate enough to be able to afford it, so we don’t compromise.

T Reik

What about SCAR 17 (or 16)? 5

Mike

3.5 on an AR15. Got a reliable light and a sling mounted, lots of ammo, spare mags and chest rig. Own a 1-6 illuminated scope but need to get it mounted and zeroed, and then get to training more.

Bluegill097

Got my CMMG Mutant in tip-top shape and just finished all my accessories (literally this week) to it so I’m giving myself a 5. Olight, sling, vortex 1-6, lots of loaded mags, and a new muzzle device plus flash can. I just need a better way to carry my mags.

Guy B

4.5 no sling as my wife is not familiar with its usage so it may get in her way.

Rothk

LR-308 - it’s a 5.

Colostomybag

I have ak’s for certain home defense niches but for wrol it’s ar all day. I’ve got multiples of the same gun. Over a hundred mags, 7-8k rounds. Multiple chest rigs, no body armor cause I will just never be fit enough to run with it, mags, and a load out but it’s ok cause I ain’t bugging out with out a vehicle.

Jeff

Gun is 5 but no LBE setup currently

Colostomybag

Honestly I’m comfortable giving myself a 5

Jody Whitaker

I'll give my setup a 3.5. I am mostly squared away and have secondary/alternate setups as well and feel good about each but need to field test my LBE setups more and really I don't think I'll ever give myself a 5/5 just due to the unknown factor 🤷‍♂️. Thanks for helping me learn though the years my friend; keep all the awesome content coming.

Hugh Amlett

AR15, red dot, light, sling, let's call it a 4.

Adam Y

AR-15 rating 5. Want to try to switch to a sapr/ar10 but she heavy, need to hit the gym more apparently 😂😂

Alex H

I have 4 ar's all are fully set up for intended use. 1 is a 8.5" with a red dot sling, light. 1 is a 16" 3-9 scope light sling bipod. 1 is a 50 beowulf (super fun gun to shoot) 1-4 scope with sling and an ar10 6.5 creedmoor with a 5-22 scope sling and bipod. I also have a silencer that fits on all but the 50 beowulf. All are set up have multiple mags ect. Next year I'll probably eventually buy an AK I just don't know what caliber I want it in. I'm tempted to just keep it in 223. Just so I don't have to invest in a new round. Otherwise I'll probably go with 7.62X39 but ammo is getting expensive and difficult to find at times these days.

Derek Morin

AR-15 rating 4.8 (gotta dial it in with a certain load)

Aaron K

18" 6.5 Grendel AR-15, Fixed 3x Prism. Rating still at 2.5, I hope to be at 5, after Black Friday.

Paul Cabbie

5 since it is a necessity of my profession.

A Nominal Snowman

AK is outdated, overpriced, ergos suck, ammo isn't cheap, mags don't carry well, NV incompatible. Mini-14 is overpriced, mags are costly, mediocre ergos, again NV issues. Boutique guns have obvious issues. AR10 is rounds limited, heavy excluding SFAR Ruger, lower mag capacity, and overkill for carrying it around. Nylon for AR10 is somewhat lacking. But easily 2nd place. WWII battle rifles are either woefully outdated like the G3 or are all the issues of the AR10 while still being inferior to an AR10. Bullpups have the issues the boutique rifles have with limited rail space, difficult ergos, and usually heavy. All that being said, nearly anything is funner to shoot than some perfected AR-15. For messing around in the woods I'd rather be shooting the AUG or FAL or really anything else.

A Nominal Snowman

The only answer is the AR-15 for an actual combat rifle if you want the best option available. One General purpose 5.56 rifle setup with a pencil barrel, no forward assist, light handguard, lpvo, mounted light, and a sling. Maybe tack on a holosun LS/LE117IR for some NV capability. And then a second AR-15 SBR in 5.56 12.5 barrel, direct thread suppressed, sling, EOtech exps3, and dbal D2. That's my no nonsense AR setups. One for NV if you can afford it and one GP carbine. Both of these rifles are setup exactly like listed so I'd rate 5. LBE and NV squared away. I just don't have an IR laser on my GP rifle to save weight. I might add it one day but they get heavy quick. After years of testing and wasting money experimenting I'm locked dead set on my set up. Nothing I've tried has beat either of these setups.

Ryan Jones

3.9. Gun is squared away with all the slings, sights, lights, and at least 1 can full of pre loaded magazines with a bunch of loose ammo and mags on reserve. No lbe or armor. So that is the downside I suppose. I have soft armor around and also am known for only wearing tac lite 511s so I guess I would be a little more grey man then most if it came to that.

A Nominal Snowman

I keep a CI7 on my NV setup 300 blk suppressed AR. The flood it does under IR obscures the view past 50-100 yards due to it lighting up grass and the dirt right in front of you. It auto gates my pvs14 which washes my red dot out. Snow makes it nearly impossible to use. But for a 300blk that only ever shoots subs it works in close range like that. But an IR laser is a necessity. I wouldn't buy the CI7 again seeing as how as far as I know, they discontinued the tape switch for it. At least for combat rifle use. Hunting or night time NV use in friendly territory like NV hiking it's awesome.

Kirk Fickert

5. Along with plate carrier, belt and mags loaded and ready.

HairyPost

We still need more mini 14 vids!!

A Nominal Snowman

I really dislike running a pistol on a plate carrier personally. Takes up too much space and it always is awkward to use. But I like thin and light plate carriers. I don't run plates personally either. I'd go battle belt with a drop leg holster. For me the battle belt isn't the first go to gear I'd throw on in an emergency. With the quick attach/detach plate carrier cummerbund clasps I can put on a plate carrier faster than a belt and have more rifle centric gear while still having my CCW pistol in my pocket/belt. Plus battle belts not secured to your pants belt don't like to stay in place. Fastening belt keepers is slow. A battle belt is a second stage of gear when I would have time to equip it. Then a pack as a third line. Just the way I run things. If I'm going to the battle belt the EDC CCW pistol is getting left behind.

Brian Driver

I would say 4. Weapon is squared away, zeroed for 50 yards ( because at 100 yards, I believe a gunfight can be avoided). Plate carrier good to go. And most importantly, I've been getting in shape and can drop and give you 50 pushups.

David Hudson

5 rating. Lbe III+ plates extra mags, Scope, sling, adjustable stock. Flashlight w/pressure switch, foregrip, mbus, just the mission necessities nothing more or extra k.i.s.s 8.8lbs😎👊🏼👍🏼

Brian Driver

Feds should know that we are law-abiding people, but ready, nonetheless.

Scott Dunn

Probably a 4. Need lights and a better way to carry extra mags. Thanks for all you do Nutn!

Joseph

Minimum for a rifle would be. Sling, light and irons

Chris Kales

3.5: Gun is good to go - running a suppressed 16" Tavor SAR with Primary Arms SLx 3X prism optic (green reticle), Inforce White/IR weapon light and Sniper sling. Gear is available but still working on the configuration - steel body armor w/ plate carrier, single NOD w/ Team Wendy bump helmet, HSGI battle belt w/ holster. Also thinking seriously about trading in the steel armor for ceramic to reduce weight and will jump at a phantom hill CTF-2 laser module...if they ever come back in stock.

TechNeck

As a canadian... ar15 is out, it was never a good option before they fully banned it either. I picked other because my ar181 (7.62x39 ar180) would be my go to right now...5 for 5 its wearing a elcan os4x lots of mags and ammo.. zeroed and doped to 500m but if i was expecting worl to last long term... honestly a sks... it will out last me. It can be feed with pulled projectiles from any .30 cal ammo with projectiles over 90 and under 168 grains. Good enough for engagments out to 300m, 400m with an optic that can be quickly mounted in either a sadle mount or a rear site replacemnt optics mount. With the irons on, i can roll down a hill with it or drop it out of a tree stand and its still zeroed. I cant say the same of any of my scoped modern guns. It doesnt require bulky mags to feed (and lose), but is vey quick to reload with striper clips. Which you can tuck a few conceled into a jacket pocket. Not wearing a big overt LBV helps keep a target off your back. Andin canadain winters.. compressing your winter jacket with a LBV is a good way to get cold quick. There is a reason our military parkas have mag pounches in the outer pockets built in to carry 4 extra mags.

Bernal

AR-15. I could be out the front door and ready for a zombie attack in 5 minutes, loaded LBE and gear prepared.

david rockwell

Multiple calibers, multiple systems; all a 5. You are a primary causal reason my number is so high. Do not just spend your way to a plateau. Design a system, then go out and refine/train. Tools last forever unused. Practice, get dirty, look for failure points. Pay someone to train you for expert feedback.

Mike Flyer

5. AR is dialed, has a light, can, EOTech (ARO is suburban area) and is zeroed. Plate carrier is FMC at all times with a full load out. Have thermal and NGV’s for night use.

Mike10

4.5, no NVG or thermal capabilities. Working towards that now, feel like if you don’t have that ability your behind the curve.

Vernon Gartee

Gear is at a 5. My physique 1.5 to carry all this.

Kav02

I’d give my rifle a 4. It is almost gtg, all it needs is a laser aiming module to make it usable with my nods. As for other equipment, maybe a 2. Need more ammo, better plate carrier and helmet, coms, and medical supplies.

kenneth davenport

For me its a AR15, and my back up is a AR15, and the back up to the back up is…an AR15.

Anthony Schaad

BCM 16”, 1-8 lpvo all setup and zeroed. I would say it’s a 5 but some would knock it a point cause I don’t run night vision. But full combat load out , plate carrier, battle belt, DMR /essentials backpack. Multiple rifles setup this way/with one MPVO 2-12 ! Ammo and mags for all … could use a little more 556, I’ve taken 3 DMR rifle classes and multiple full kit DMR ruck matches I’m running a little low lol. Gear, Physique, Mindset gtg lol!!!

Rick Grad

418” fluted Wilson Combat barrel with BCM furniture. Optic zeroed and and ready to go with IMI 77g loaded in 30 mags in the safe, only 3 on LBE. I shot it monthly. More when I can get the IMI ammo at reasonable prices. Have a few cases stashed away, but the 77g stuff is pricey these days.

Chris Marchi

It's always the AR, then maybe a shotgun and some 308 or long range gun.

Chris Marchi

my eyes aren't that great anymore so maybe not even anything beyond the AR. Having said that I do have a good 30-30 lever action and a Chinese Ak 56.

Chris Marchi

Iron sights so I go down shooting with the original OG.

Andrettski

4.3, no night viz, my LBE needs work. Colt AR15, Aimpoint w/3x magnifier, AFG2, light, sling with loaded mag also bunch of extra loaded mags.

Brandon conley

4.5. I’d say 5 but one of my two setups lacks a light still. Others would judge my setups maybe more harshly, but I’m a nonconformist, and I’m ok with that.

IndianaBen

4 rating. Deduction for missing plates. But the carrier and rest of gear is complete and setup well, minus the plates. And the weapon system is complete. Phenomenal actually, canned 11.5” SBR runs beautifully and does get run a lot; excellent weight and good ammo and mag stockpile.

ThisWe'llDefend

5 rating for red dot mounted 14.5" pinned barrel MSR. There's a 20" barreled scoped option for longer ranges. A .308 SAPR is set up for hog work, but could be pressed into duty if called upon. I pray to God these won't be needed, or when they do, I'll be long gone by then.

PTL SCIENCE

2.5 readyness. WROL situation would mean a 3 street guard mission where I live. One man at the end of each street = 6 complete and zeroed AR15s with 7 full mags each, III+ armor, LBE, comms, and all weather uniforms. I have 3, need 3 more, so 2.5

Iowa Dave

Do I get a 6 because it is suppressed?

Murphy

AR 15. Has sling, light, red dot and chest rig set up. Zeroed and ready to go.

JK

I have three 5's and two 4's (rifle is complete/zeroed, no accompanying gear)

Josh

5

Justin Golden

So, I have an AR based on your SPR build, with scope and back-up irons. I'd put that at a 3; it's ready to rock, but would benefit from a sling. I have a lightweight 16" build that I haven't finished parting out, so that's at a 0.

DSK76

4

Nigel USA

3,5 rating. assembled from the add-ons of a different gun - needs more range time to figure best ammo and reliability

Paul Kainz

I have two ARs that are a 5, one thats a 4 (only because it doesn't have a light on it).

Elijah Ballard

4 rating. I’m zeroed, sling, lights and magnification I deem necessary for my area. I have 3 seperate AR builds. Two are complete and one is still in the works.

Jeff Freeman

AR-15, probably a 2 rating. I need to get it all kitted up but I'm lazy.

Matthew Sinn

I'm a solid 1 or maybe 2. I have a couple things that could qualify just from my practical use (KS7, RDB-S) that are set up well, and a couple things that could qualify that I haven't fully fleshed out yet (SFAR, P50 SBR). I'd employ any of them in an emergency and have ammo and magazines stored for all of them to one degree or another. Just not the full system accouterments. I do have LBE and a "duty belt" in some stage of readiness, but not prepared. But I'm a bit ashamed to say I haven't squared away anything for WROL other than the guns in my BOK system - Henry AR7 and KelTec P17, loaded mags and 370-ish rounds of .22LR CCI MiniMag, and holster/containers all together under 12 lbs. I should probably put a post in the member messages about it. And for Nutn - yes, I have several hundred rounds through both the AR7 and the P17 and I'm confident in their reliability at least to the same level as I'm confident in the ammo reliability. I know you were put off the AR7 in the past.

rediius

4 - accessories are attached and functional, and I'm slowly upgrading from budget tier to duty grade items and testing them appropriately.

4 - AR15 it's all setup and I have a PC w/ plates and belt setup to run it. I dinged myself a point for not having all the magazines loaded, and my stockpile of non-steel case is lacking.

Matthew Sinn

Now that's honesty right there.

5. When my ex-wife and I separated back last December, I found out exactly which one rifle I would grab if sh!t went sideways: my Savage MSR 10. Mine is decked out, and optimized for urban/suburban Saint Louis. Leupold VX-R Patrol 1.25-4x, Streamlight rifle kit, offset XS sights, Precision Armament EFAB (the best combination flash hider/comp/brake.) Unlike your review sample, mine came with a wonderful trigger; easily the best trigger of all of my rifles. My rifle most recently was taken out to a training facility my agency is affiliated with and used (as configured) to engage targets off hand to 475 meters. I've got some pics I wish I could upload...

Matt P

Suppressed SBR. In 5.56. Sling, light optics and lbe good to go. I'll go to 2.5 cause I'm still working out my nvg setup. Working on basic setups for rest of family though. Glock/AR system for all etc.

Patrick Brichta

5. Rolled my own odin works, lpvo, light, All the trimmings, plenty of ammo etc for the ride.

I gave myself a 3.5. Only 1 AR -15 has a sling. This one with the sling is sighted in, but has 18 inch barrel and more 3 gun style set up. I have 3 magazines set to go in chest rig with soft body armor. 3 Glock mags already in chest rig and Glock 17 is in fast access safe next to bed stand. Only because of this pull, I need to buy another light and sling for a lighter AR-15 I have that is not sighted in and load up 5 more magazines of 223/556. I shoot trap for fun on a regular basis, but have not shot an AR-15 in years. Have shot 22 LR and 9MM AR-15's maybe in last 9 months. Taking a 20 year old to the range in 6 days and showing him how to shoot a hand gun for the first time. Will take 9mm AR-15 to get a little practice in, plus he will think it's cool.

Kel Tek SU16A with a 50yd zero using a fixed 2.5 scope and wearing a free floating hand guard. While I regularly get 2” 100yd groups, it did almost that with the stock hand guard and excellent peep sights it came with. Lost the front sight in the installation of the hand guard. If I get a second SU16A, I’ll leave it stock and mount one of the little 3 or 4 power prism sights as you can really feel the bolt carrier bottom with SS109. I like to feed it the milder bulk ammo. Lots of pmags that conform to free and combloc states. Next step is to attach a light, but plenty of space and mounting options. My Ruger LCP custom has an aftermarket trigger, really good open sights and a few spare magazines. Quite a difference from my 6.5” .357 Blackhawk, but shooting it well enough to rely on and the fluted solids are just about optimal by FBI criteria.

The AR-10T set up with Arken FFP optic, at a 5, at the home base. I spend WAY too much time in my truck commute to/from work, where you find the SUB2K GL15 packed with G41, G30 EDC, and an 887 NitroMag Turkey-Tactical I created(all 5s). My primary AR-15 is a 6920 which I'm just re-dialing now with a Mepro RDS-Pro and AAC 77gr.. 1st world problems; the WROL tool of choice is just wherever I happen to be. I voted with the 10-T as that is what I have the most ammo for, w/o needing to risk anything for re-supply, and THAT ArmaLite is an insanely dependable tank. Now, I'm just dipping into the deeper AK waters beyond the GF3, looking at the Romy GF5s......

5 for the gun 12.5 ar eotech dead air sandman s paired with a staccato P but still need a plate carrier and nods

Put your pics in a post in the member posts section here. Or can you not post them for policy reasons?

I do need a sling, and a GTW holster for my handgun. Pretty much where I'm sitting. I hate slings. but they are a necessary evil.

Willie Everett

4.5, I want to upgrade my light and optic but I would be fine as it sits. I also have a two 4s and a 3.

Tim Reilly

Check out SOE Tactical’s Bungee Sling, they are Tremendous I have their 2 point on my rifles and a single point on my string trimmer

Shadeslinger

5. Ar15 16”, light, sling, can, optic, optic wrench & spare batt in the grip

TireManTim

The only GTW rifle I have. Yes I am a converted FUD. But it is a 2.5, slinged, LBE, 12 Ruger mags. i plan on drilling the stock for a light mount the winter. And ammo, not sure how much after the last range trip, enough for home invading Communist chipmunks, not enough for Fallugh

David

Should have added points for being in shape for actually going through a wrol situation.

David Elkins

AR because it’s accurate, reliable, ergonomic, but primarily because of familiarity. The guys with bullpups are onto something though. I wish they had caught fire 20 years ago. Think what awesomeness would be available today if they had.

darby shaw

3.5 sling and red dot.

Reid

As much as I would like to say my APC9 PRO, I gotta go with AR here. And I would say 3.5 on the readiness scale. Weapon is ready as is but I would probably add an offset red dot to go with LPVO along with armour and better chest rig.

Gregory Hines

Patriot Ordinance P415 with an EoTech red dot, with a visual laser sight, weapon light, and Silencerco suppressor.

JIMY

I’m shocked more people aren’t using an MCX!

Daniel Goodrich

PSA AR-15 & Glock G34. I have the sights, mags, and lights. And 1100 rds of 9mm. Next on the to get list is the 1000 rds of .223 and a Mossberg 500. Things are getting better for me but I'm still a tight budget.

Plumber Angelo

Keltec su-16 (5) because it’s a “featureless” rifle in CA. I would never have a full “featured” ar-15 in my god forsaken state! That would be a crime and I’m just a law abiding citizen!

“Milk Man” Matt Moore

AK guy in the minority. My G2W rifle is setup exactly the way I need it to be and I’ve got everything I need. Solid 5. I don’t know if I can say that about any other firearm I own, but that one is ready.

Nathan Simms aka Darkpriest

AR15/4 I don't like lights on my guns, but I have the attachment for an IR light on my 6.5 Grendel with a nightscope. All of my rifles are zeroed and ready to go and set up the way I like them.

Chris carr

Ar15, my sapr is an ar in 224 Valkyrie. Ready to rock. But giving it a 4 because the 224 Valkyrie has to heavy of a barrel and neither I have no ir

Dillon durham

Depends on what's happening and where, for holdin the home down and traveling ak for sure, anything else probably the 20" ar with a 2-10x

Ross Layman

My go to setup is a 16in AR-15 in 5.56mm, dual fuel stream light (takes AA or CR123), sling, and aimpoint Red dot. Being based on the north east in a heavily wooded and population dense area I’m more setup for a CQB. That being said I to do also have a 20” model And a AR pistol (7in 5.56, live to hate it but hate loving it), but they won’t be my first choice.

Dafartknockah

5, 16” Bcm with Acog + top dot, buis, m300 scout light , ferro slingster and a good flash hider

Clint Raby

AR 3.5 - At thisoment in time, you caught me with no sling and I don't have any IR. Chest rig is not ready to go either. I need to get what I have squared away.

Jesse (Sphinx)

4 for my AR10. Run a slick plate carrier (with plates) with a placard for 3 AR10 mags. Have a sling, 1-8x Nightforce, muzzle brake, supressor, and offset Trijicon RMR. The NF is zeroed at 100 but I still need to zero RMR at 25. I do have a light but want to change it to a better one. I've also hiked miles with it on sling to see how it carries...not bad but she's heavy loaded. Worth it in WROL. I can outreach most other common calibers and defeat most body armor.

HappyFrancisMacomber

One 5, one 4, and many good old fashioned 3s iron sights / hunting rigs. No shotgun love? Will give those 4 because they just work.
