A world without AK's and AR's

[TreyG-20]

So if neither one existed what would be your go to semi auto carbine or rifle? Why?
The reason I ask? I have both. Love both. But I'm bored of both. I need something new to love. Under 1500. < gunshow tomorrow

....... Nm, it's a bolt with a mag not semi

M1 Carbine. Light, handy, low recoil, just an all-around good rifle.

Vz.58. Nothing like the AK mechanically, but same caliber, similar handling.

SKS. A decent rifle in 7.62x39mm

Lee Enfield. Not semi-auto, but can be fired very rapidly with some practice. The next best thing, really. Can be had in .308 if you get an Ishapore 2A.

You know, me too. So I picked up one of these yesterday ...

We'll see how long this one keeps me interested.

Not much for under $1500 can compare to an AR or AK... If you can find one, a Steyr AUG (unlikely) or a MSAR STG-556 (more likely) is a good rifle.
