Buy recommendations Getting into Semi's
Hey guys, I've got me a nice hunting rifle and a good shotgun, a Tikka t3x, and a mossberg 590, looking to get into semi autos and just looking for recommendations from anybody who's shot the specific models and what they would recommend? I fired the SKS and the Citadel, was wondering about the akdas and Henry homesteader, any advice would be nice

I just picked up a homesteader last week. And just got back in from my first day out with it.
I loved the thing. Its my first 9mm rifle, so i dont have much of an educated opinion, but its an absolute blast to shoot. The ammo is dirt cheap compared to other center fire rounds. And its crazy accurate/reliable out of the box.
Not a single issue during the whole day today, and I burned through 400 rds.
Compared to your other non pistol caliber rifles here though, its a different ball game entirely. If you want something with a bit more kick than a .22 and cheap ammo, go with the homesteader. If you want longer range and dont mind a bit more cost for ammo then go with one of your other options.
Keep in mind the 2 new semis coming to the market too. Theyre pricy, but they're nice haha.
