Hello,
I am seriously considering purchasing a LR 308 DPMS. This will be my first AR-10 and I'm not too knowledgeable about them so I would appreciate any advice. One of my concerns with this rifle is the barrel is a 4140. I've read that a 4140 could create a problem with mulitple firings. Is this true and should I stay away from this or would I be okay. This will be my MBR. Also, would I be better off if I built my own? If so, where do I buy the uppers/lowers, etc.? Thanks for the help, Joe |

Building your own will actually cost you more ,but you can build it with what you want . Type of upper,lower ,bbl, hand guard ,those kind of things .
I don't see a problem with the bbl. material if kept clean & all bbl's have a service life. Be careful using the AR 10 wording in the same sentence as DPMS, we all know what you are referring to , others take offence to comparing the two ,even though they are both AR 308's. |
