Manufacturers are getting more innovative, they're becoming more powerful, and the best part is that there’s a whole heap of different types of guns to choose from. Which ones belong in your gun cabinet, if any. Let's find out. The 9 Best Semi-Automatic Rifles These semi-automatic rifles are some of the best. At least that's what gun owners think. What do you think? 1. Colt LE6920 The LE6920 is a formidable tactical semi-auto rifle. It has a muzzle compensator to reduce the sound of the muzzle blast, and a 16.1 chrome-lined barrel for powerful shots. It also comes with a direct gas system for easy and dependable feeding. The Colt has a collapsible stock and detachable carry, making it mobile-ready. But perhaps the most outstanding feature of this semi-automatic weapon is its 30-round Magpul magazine. This powerful shotgun is typically for military and law enforcement agencies -- and it’s obvious why. This 6.9-pound rifle has a price between $1,000 and $1,300, depending on where you buy it. 2. Remington R-25 The Remington R-25 is 39 inches long with a 20-inch barrel. This 7.63-pound semi-automatic rifle is not only sleek and reliable, but it's also perfect for a 6.8 mm round. In terms of performance, it is fast, accurate, and has a very impressive follow-up recoil which is reduced by its SuperCell recoil pad. Dual ejectors ensure reliable ammunition recycling, and the Hogue pistol grip gives you better control. You can own this .308 Winchester Remington for $1,200 to $1,400. 3. Armalite AR-10 A2 The Armalite AR-10 A2 is a semi-automatic rifle suitable for both competitive shooting and tactical requirements. Its gas operated system propels the projectile through a tube, delivering a real kick.

Wilson Combat HAM’R Ultimate Hunter Bill Wilson, one of the best gun innovators of all time, has done it again.

The tactical pistol grip makes firing this rifle comfortable, as does the closed shoulder buttstock with limbsaver pad. You can own the HAM'R for a whopping $3,000 to $3,300. You also have the option of adding accessories to this impressive weapon. 5. AP4 LR-308 For a price of $1,200 to $1,400, the AP4 LR-308 will certainly give you a lot of value for your money. The AP4 is an exciting panther version of the long-range .308 assault rifle. It has a smaller, faster, and lighter carbine that packs a mean punch. Its unique A3 height receiver and A2 front fixed sight will make your shots pretty accurate. At 8.5 pounds, it's heavier than most semi-automatic rifles on this list, and the 34.25 to 37.25-inch length may prove a challenge for some to handle. But, if you can handle the weight, this military-grade weapon just might be the one for you. 6. Ruger Pistol Caliber Carbine The Ruger Pistol Caliber Carbine is a fairly light rifle (under seven pounds) that is easy and fun to use.

The Ruger can be yours for $500 to $700, depending on where you choose to purchase it for yourself. 7. Barret REC7 DI Although it’s one of the pricier guns on the list at $2,450 to $2,650, the Barret REC7 DI is also the most innovative 22 rifle. It has a short stroke gas piston system that runs more efficiently than the conventional direct gas impingement system. It is 36 inches long and weighs just over 6 pounds, making it easily portable and easy to handle. With its 10 to 30 round capacity, and Magpul six-position stock, and iron sights, this is a powerful gun. 8.
