I know I read the answer to this here someplace. I am starting the build of my DPMS 308 stripped lower. I understand most of the parts interchange with the AR 15 and I have assembled an AR lower before. Questions: Is there any reason to prefer one LPK over another. It looks like RRA has them in stock and DPMS does not.
Also, remind me how the 308 build differs. I recall that there are 1 or 2 differences. But I can't find the posts on this board. Thanks. |
| .308 uses a set screw instead of a split pin for the bolt catch. .308 spring & detent for the rear takedown pin go in a hole under the hand grip instead of going in from the rear where the buttstock attaches. .308 has a trigger guard machined into the lower already. All of this is specific to the DPMS .308 lowers....not sure about other brands. |
