Have ar10 mags been standardized?? Never considered one over an m14 clone...... But the price on AR10's bow is very tempting.

What it offers, is the Wilson Combat name on a .308 AR. Something no other rifle can claim.
There's room for them at the top.... but I don't see any quick change clasps on the side... they definitely add something to the rifle. |

Just like the 3000 dollar 1911's that have been sent back and have been told. "You are gripping it wrong or just shoot these bullets". Wow! |

Those 'sub standard' barrels are shooting pretty well. Especially since LT has been shipping 'good' ones on their rifles for a while now. And if JP is the Aston Martin of rifles, then LT is Lamborgini, and KAC is McLaren.

No. The industry works on patents and intellectual property to determine who makes what so that if you want something from one manufacturer, another substandard company cannot come in and trick you into thinking you are getting the other's product.
