your one of the few I know that used the stryker. once your out of ammo on that your screwed, the reload time is longer than a light machine gun. have you tried the AA-12? that gun is great and if you unlock extended mags and you throw on scavanger, 16 rounds of rapid fire shotgun goodness in each mag. the ranger is so worth it if you like to run around like a crazy person, they are nasty at close range and the reload time isn't too bad on them. it only takes maybe a match or 2 to get the dual wield shotguns.
