Like others have said, at 2k, you have plenty of great options. Along with what others have said, take a look at some of spikes tactical's offers. Mid length is a procen and reliable system that doesnr beat the gun up like a carbine length does. Also, im going to be the "build your own" guy if your a habitual tinker like I am and with your budget you could build one hell of a rifle with the exact parts or features you want. Happy hunting.
