Making a decision on my first rifle and have it narrowed down to these 2.

I'm leaning toward the Rugar but I really like the reliability Springfield is known for.

Yes I know good luck finding them but when I do I am buying it.

I would like to mention that I am a beginner but not a novice when it comes to firearms. I have shot plenty of times and have been trained in gun safety, but never owned my own.

Thanks for anyone taking the time to answer.

i have not noticed. Here in Miami, things seem normal. No protest , Blm, Antifa. Places are packed , restaurants and bars. some mask people. But over all majority not wearing mask.

best line of defense is the 9m with extended clip. I carry. Sig. P320 M18.

Enjoy it. You dont know what a shitshow it is living in a blue state. However i'm sure you will be feeling the ZOG boot as soon as the mandates come down from harris and biden. Then you will understand, like i did why owning a gun is so important.

Hopefully u can learn from my mistake of putting off buying a gun before that happens to you and your home.

I have 5000 rounds of 9m ammo. not worried. I have 2x that for my AR. I have full tactical lay out on the AR. however , it sits in the closet - not practical to carry. Range shooting is a waste of time and they only allow limited ammo for range use. Soon. there will be no ammo.

Good, you were smarter than me haha. But wouldn't it be wise to shoot your AR just to shake off the aim 'rust' and keep your gun functional? You dont have to go crazy just shoot a few rounds.

And yes the ammo shortage is really concerning. A Biden presidency is really terrifying. Who knows what bullshit a dem majority congress will pass to limit gun/ammo production.
