What AR-10?

[Red Leader]

Thinking about getting rid of the semi-exotic weapons I have and going strictly with the AR10 and 15 platforms. Any AR10 show up better than the others? A better question is are there any to stay away from?

 

[DAVE_M]

How much do you want to spend?

 

[Red Leader]

Hadnt thought of that. Cap at $2500 maybe.

 

[DAVE_M]

Stay away from companies like DPMS & Bushmaster.

Armalite, Seekins Precision, Black Rain, Aero Precision, and POF are all within your budget (to name a few).

If you spend a little more, you can look at Daniel Defense.

Or buy the DD that this guy is selling and be done:

There ant nothing wrong with DPMS. If you want to give your money away I will be happy to take from you. I have two DPMS Lr-308’s and they are every thing and do everything I want to do with them. I only use mine to Deer hunt with so nothing special.

DPMS LR-308 20" Rifle


DPMS LR-308 16" Carbine home built

To each his own, but I have had 2 dpms lr308's and have been nothing but reliable and very accurate!!! I wouldn't doubt them for a min!!!

Pretty nice rifle for the money, Ambidextrous, adjustable gas for suppressed shooters, and comes with a 3.5 lb trigger.

The new dpms g2 AR-10 style rifles are really great,worlds better than the original dpms AR-10's. If all you are looking for is a hunting rifle the old dpms's will do fine but with the g2 recon coming in at ~$1200 there is really no reason to go with an older model. If you want to bring your budget up a little bit you could get the Wilson Combat .308 Super Sniper.

I've got a Dpms Ar/15. Changed out the hand guard with a 12 quad rail. Aim point red dot for close quarters and a Leopold 3x9x50 for long range. Shoots 3/4" groups at 300 yard all day.

There is a Larue OBR with 250 rounds through it at Arms Merchant in Covington.

How much are you willing to wager on this claim? I'm willing to throw some cash down.

LOL

What he means is... it is gonna take him all day to put two rounds at 3/4" at 300 yards.

I had one that I shot one 3/4 group with at 300 at Palo Alto, but that could've been a fluke. Chaser saw it

Maybe he meant 3 or 4" groups all day?

Or maybe 34" groups all day?

I've got enough cash to put some on you too Joe. You ready? 5 shots, 300 yards, 0.750 inches or less center to center with an AR-10 platform. Group will be measured by taking the maximum linear distance from the outside edge of the one hole to the outside edge of the furthest hole and subtracting bullet diameter. One 5 round string to be fired ONLY! First 5 rounds of the day period. Group will be fired by the shooter, not a device operating the trigger for you, from the prone position with only the aid of a bipod and 1 rear bag. I'm willing to bet $10,000 cash. LET ME KNOW!!! If your 5 round group is equal to or less than 0.750 inches I pay you. If it is over you pay me. Show somebody the cash and Ill make the trip on a weekend. I'm sure Mickey would be willing to open up Palo Alto for us to make it happen.
