Default RE: "tactical"

I'd think a "tactical" rifle should be basic lightweight and easily carried. Adding all sorts of accessories takes that away. 100rnd mags, yeah that aids "tactical" mobilty. Presenation finish? Sorry, not picking on you personally, just generalizing and you've chosen the usual, common accessories here.
Of course, most others would have a 3-20x-50 illuminated rectical scope, a laser rangefinder, a handgaurd mounted illumination device (can't call them flashlights, doesn't sound as cool) a night vision optical device, a "grenade launcher with it's own illumination device, a bayonet and flash hider attatched to a fluted bbl. Gotta look cool ya know.
Get a kick how "tactical" has become synonomous with "let's see how many things we can hang off a black gun". Even as a multi-purpose one, I'd still want fairly basic, After all, these AR styles worked for a number of years without all the crap hangin' off them.

Do think you choose a very good model. I've heard nothing but positive remarks about he JP rifles.
