    I agree, they're absolutely wonderful shooters, even with the goofy eccentric front sight.

    The FR8 was what I replaced with the Winchester 94.

    Rolling blocks are interesting. Never shot one, but I have owned or shot a lot of their competition. .43 Spanish is a good round.

    Not sure how well I can edc a musket though...haha. Seriously, though, some very nice guns popping up on here!

    @Witch Doctor- ...why are you wearing your bowie backwards???? But, you know, a pumpgun does make more sense as a mare's leg...

    I love these threads that bring out all the personal firearms expert opinions but that is exactly what they are, nobody here really expects they'll win the lottery and you'll pick their gun, it's just a fun target to shoot at. You'll end up with whatever fancies you at the moment and it'll do you just fine. There is no single gun that meets everyone's criteria, so go with what you know or go with what you want, the whole point is to find something that meets your needs, my personal choice for a truck gun is a mounted 1919A4.

    Zimmy Wait, I'm not ready!

    Sounds like you need an FN PS90 SBR. Not 30 cal, but it fits most of the other parameters you requested

    I like the 300 BLK AR pistol. Springfield Armory just released their AR pistol in that caliber and it looks pretty nice.
    Add a suppressor down the road if wanted. Ammo is easily found nowadays in sub- and super-sonic loads, even at Walmart.
    Also, it carries pretty easily on a single-point sling - a trench coat may even conceal it :^)

    .30 cal truck gun? This one is my favorite
    1919a-600x408.
    Or you might consider a AR in 7.62x39mm. I love the ones I have, fills all your listed needs. Cheap ammo if you don't happen to reload and a small package.
