OK, I know there are other threads asking this question, but I wanted to do one with some specific parameters.

Say you have $2000.00
You want a general purpose battle rifle.
Only rifle you will own. It can be a bolt action, but it still be the only rifle you will own.

So, quality, reliability, capability, portability... any other important ility I may have not thought of.

Mainly thinking:
7.62x39
Folding stock
Accessory capable (as in front rail or other method)

That's my base parameters, but those are not absolute "must haves" so if you have strong recommendation for something else, please state it.


Some that are similar to what match the parameters:

SAM7SF
KV-13
SLR107-31
SGL21-94
or just save all that money and get an  O-PAP

TIA,

O-PAPs look really nice and are getting good reviews. I'd get that, a ton of ammo and a bunch of mags. Have $ left over for pop tarts and beer, or pistol or something.

If I was thinking long term I'm thinking chrome lined barrel is a must. Get an arsenal sgl21 the stock option is up to you. Stock up on mags as ammo continues to drop in price and availability is getting better. Soon enough we will be seeing the 5$ a box deals w free shipping. Hit those sales hard.

SGL-21 or SLR-107, like mentioned before, you could instead get a base model without the side folding stock and save some money to buy a different folding stock that will fit the tang, it will give you more options down the road
