All,

While few could argue that house to house combat is THE place for a shotgun, the question at hand was, �what�s the best infantry RIFLE.� For some unknown reason (I figure it�s cost), the military has never used (that I know of) the best combat shotgun, Ithaca M37.

For best infantry rifle, I still hold to the Valmet M62/76. They�re better in the house to house scenario than the M16 and they�ll reach out a touch beyond 500 yards with better accuracy than an M14�Just don�t see anything not to like about them (except they�re uglier than the leading lineup at the LPGA)
