Hi everybody! Just wondering if anyone had any info, thoughts, comments or experience with this rifle? Possibly as a 'bug-out' rifle...??

It's a great rifle, perfect to stick in a backpack and take to the trails. They are dependable, lightweight, obviously collapsible and take AR magazines.
Unfortunately, some people try and make them into AR type rifles or tactical them out with rails and all sorts of geegaws.
I had one(SU16CA) and enjoyed it immensely. It's a great Get Out Of Dodge rifle, handy as all get out and will serve you well. Just remember to use it as it was designed and not to try and make it into something else.
If you want to transform it into something more tactical, just spend the extra money and buy or build an AR. __________________ Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) - a system of government where those least capable of leadership are elected by those least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to succeed or provide for themselves are rewarded with goods and services paid for by wealth confiscated from a diminishing number of people who actually work and produce.

I agree with CA357. It is not a sustained fire battle carbine, but makes an outstanding "grab and go". __________________ NRA-Life

Thanks guys! That was the impression I got when looking at it, and thats exactly what I'm looking for - super practical, good performer, easy to carry bug out rifle ! __________________ If we take the generally accepted definition of bravery as a quality which knows no fear, I have never seen a brave man.
