EVERYONE I talk to says the SAME thing. I am a cunt hair away from buying one too. Only problem is the only ones that are around here are the ones with the basic, smooth side upper receiver, as opposed to the A3 one with the forward assist and dust cover. Called DPMS and its an 8 month wait to custom order one like I want it :shock:Robpiat said:I am very pleased with my 24" Stainless DPMS.
Yeah, $3.5K on a rifle would officially land me in divorce court. Thanks for opening my eyes to one more thing I want and cant have though :mrgreen:skyugo said:doesnt' noveske make some 7.62 cal stuff now? $$$ of course. but i doubt it would disappoint.

Im gonna check out the fun show this weekend. Hopefully Ill find one in the A3 like I like.
Of course get what you like. I will say I have one with the smooth side upper and never had a need for a forward assist or dust cover. I bought mine when they first came out and have one of the first 200 built. Only upgrade was a RRA 2 stage trigger.thirdeye said:EVERYONE I talk to says the SAME thing.

Yeah, I like the M14s and Im sure they are indeed more accurate than the AR platform. This go around though, I want something with a pistol grip. Im just really itchin for an AR right now.JimM44 said:I will say newguy has a point you should get the M1A first before the AR10 I have both and I would pick the M1A over the AR10 also.
Just saying I saw a regular at the plate shoots 2 years ago who had an Armalite AR10, stainless bbl, ran fine on one surp and refused to chamber on the other. Forget whether he was trading SA for Port or the other way, but it was rude.....armakraut said:The two experienced AR smiths I've talked to re: "Armalite vs DPMS" said the same thing, there is no difference between the level of performance and reliability they could get out of the guns.
My experience with Armalite was that the quality control on assembly was lacking and your rifle may not run out of the box on NATO ammo (or "plinking" ammo as they call it).

All of Noveske's stuff is Armalite AR10 specs.skyugo said:doesnt' noveske make some 7.62 cal stuff now? $$$ of course. but i doubt it would disappoint.
