Forty-one percent of surveyed hunters used an AR-platform rifle at some time for hunting, according to the findings of research conducted by Responsive Management for the Outdoor Stewards of Conservation Foundation.
If you’d like to have something more traditionally configured with a buttstock and no separate pistol grip, yet retain most of the benefits of an AR-style rifle, the FightLite SCR is worth a close look.
