So I am currently in the market to pick up a AR-15. I have been given a bunch of advice on what to buy but have come to a crossroads. One person suggested getting a rifle chambered in 5.45x39 because the ammo is so cheap. Another suggested getting a 5.56 gas piston.
I was looking at the S&W M&P15R (5.45) and the Stag Model 8 (gas piston)
Is there a rifle that will do both? Should I stay away from the 5.45 because of the corrosive nature? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
