So thought I'd ask here for some advice.....needs to cost effective and sensible .....

TIA

I purchased one of the 1st Ruger 'All American' Compact .223's when they arrived in NZ. Extremely accurate with a Konus 3-12x44 scope and bespoke Gunworks suppressor. Definitely not heavy (haven't weighed it) but have carried it for hours with no problems. Have had no issues with the 'Plastic' stock - Worth a look I think and at a good price.
