What if you could only have one rifle? What would it be? What if you need the ability to engage very fast up close and then also shoot out to medium distance? This is where is a Hybrid Carbine shines.
A Hybrid Carbine is a very accurate 16 in AR in 5.56 with a 1-6 or 1-8 variable power scope with mil hash marks and a daytime visible red dot.
Why the Hybrid Carbine? This setup is about as close as it gets to the one rifle that will do it all. It won’t do anything the best, but it will do a lot of things very well. With this setup you can make all of your rifle standards at close and medium range, then you can dial the power up on your glass and shoot out to 600-700 yards.
Here is what my Hybrid Carbine looks like:
