Feets / Collection / My build Non-prohibited “Night fighting” gun setups?

I recently acquired a PVS14 and was curious what rifle setups people are running right now. I realize most decent rifles are prohibited but I was looking for some recommendations with the current market. Thanks!

I find that funny how many poeple underestimate .22lr. Most people talk about it as if it were a bb gun. I mean sure it is not anywhere near a .223 or 7.62 but it is still a very deadly round under 100yds.

Not saying the 22 is the better choice for self defence just saying a lot of people treat it almost like a toy. Most bb guns will barely break skin unless shot in really soft spots. Most .22 out of a rifle will make it to the vitals. The only thing lacking it the stopping power. Lethality is still there. A .22 hits almost the same as a single pellet of 00 Buck
