Really need some advice on what to get based on my personal requirements.
1: I hunt a lot of doves locally because they are absolutely delicious, I will eat other small birds as well.
2: I need to be able to conceal the gun in a backpack so as not to freak out locals while moving about. It must be very quiet so probably need a moderator or something quite out of the box.
3: I need to be able to take somewhat larger stuff from time to time such as nutria rats.
4: what is a decent scope for long range bird hunting on somewhat of a budget?
5: What is recommended for somewhat larger game as I will probably buy a second gun for the purpose.
I have been looking at Taipan Veteran, Leshiy 2, AEA backpacker or SS, Marauder pistol, and various other bullpups but still can't decide even after lurking on this form for a while.
Left to my own devices I'm probably just going to get an Akela, some compact AEA gun or Kral punch breaker. I'm looking for extreme reliability and ease of maintenance since I will be shooting it a whole lot as well as mid or low range in pricing unless someone somehow convinces me I absolutely need an Leshiy 2.
