Which one?
I have a couple of ARs. An HK-91, Garand, .30-40 Krag, 1903-A3, a couple of SKSs, AK, M91/38, a couple of M95s, M44, and that's off the top of my head.

Sweet! Every time I have the money for an FAL, I can't find one I like. When I'm broke, they're everywhere.
The worst part about WTSHTF is deciding what to take. LOL!!
It'll probably be the suppressed Wilson Combat AR9 though.
Believe it or not, the 9mm Wilson is more accurate [inside 100 yards] than all the others combined, and that FN FNAR Competition ain't no slouch.
Handloads, 124g Hornady XTP and I can get .700 for ten rounds at 50. YES, 10 rounds. 3 and 5 round groups tell lies.
I haven't chronographed the AA #7 loads yet but AA#5 shows real promise too. I am almost in the single digits for standard deviation and WELL under an inch for 10 rounds at 50 yards. 1375 FPS for a 124g JHP ain't nothing to sneeze at. I could go further but I am hesitant to push past listed max even though Wilson says this thing will eat +P all day long. I paid too much for this thing to play dumb games. Instead I am starting to work with slower powders to capitalize on the 16 inch barrel.
Some may scoff at the humble 9mm but minute of angle at 50 yards is .525 and my best so far is .700 I'm almost minute of angle and I WILL be with more load development. Best groups at 100 yards has been 1.25 inches for 10 rounds.
When dealing with islam one should always ask themselves: "What would Leonidas do?"
That's pretty sporty!

Here is another of my favorite battle rifles. An 1898 Krag made in 1901.

Beautiful Krag, skeet1. I'm a bit green.
