[QUOTE="APH Tactical, post: 2911448, member: 40946"] If I may... Why not? SOCOM's been doing it since 'nam. SWAT does it. HRT, SRT, and many other teams and operators in 3-letter agencies use them as well, because they understand its purpose and know what they will be using the weapon system for. In the hills of freakin' Afghaniraq yeah... give me that few extra FPS and flatter trajectory, but if (God forbid) anyone on this board every needed to use a rifle in some sort of civil war or zombie apocalypse/ economic collapse, what engagement distances are you realistically going to see unless you make very specific plans to do otherwise (until your position is blown after your first 2 or 3 rounds, and then you fall back to your CQB Basics anyways!) An SBR, much like a Sniper Rifle, is a tool. A tool specifically designed to perform a certain task. Just like working on your car, you need to determine the task before you can choose your tools. Though many of you may be fortunate enough to live out in the country, I would tend to assume that the majority of this post's readers could implement an SBR into their Defense Design quite successfully.
