I couldn’t find one so I bought a BAR in 30-06, which is also a beautiful firearm - but there is just something about THIS gun as a scout platform…sexy as fuck.

The BAR was a great choice, and absolutely a beautiful rifle! I'm hoping Ruger will start back up their original scout line, seeing how popular they were. I tried the American gen 2, and although really nice as well, I still preferred the feel of the original

Which BAR? Mk3? Mk4? Or one of the older ones?

Oh ok so one of the good ones. Ever since they started making their guns in portugal they've been overpriced garbage rods.
