    I believe that you should get the most power with a budget in mind. I have ordered a MAS but have not seen it yet. It is high power, but ammo is expensive. I have a CETME parts gun from Fed. Arms and it is alot of fun, ammo is cheap, and prices are coming down. I also have a Mak90 cheap ammo but not as much power nor as accurate. The sights on my CETME seem to be misaligned, but I really haven't had time to fool with it. I would vote for the CETME. There is a chat forum at milsurpshooter.net on French rifles and a lot of talk about the MAS.[This message has been edited by oneshy (edited 10-24-2001).]

    Oneshy, you or someone recently listed the milsurpshooter site on another post. I took a look, and it is really not my thing, but I also looked at their links, and at one of the dealers found a rifle I have been looking for, for most of a year. It is on the way. So, thanks to you or the other kind soul who originally posted that site! [This message has been edited by He Dog (edited 10-24-2001).]
