Quoted: Tell us more!! What are the DPMS uppers like? Any 20" models?
|
JIM', I don't have any insider info, I'm just sharing what I'm getting from the Arne's postings, BUUUT... I read somewhere earlier today (I'll be darned if I can find it now) that Arne stated they will be offering a 20" tactical model this year once the 14.5" and 16" uppers start shipping. I haven't seen anything yet on the DPMS specs - although I did ask Arne for them myself.
The ammo arrangement with Wolf sure does seem to be the holy-grail of solutions. The mags sure sound promising too. 25 round stainless steel with CS springs and MP followers!! HK's stainless AR mags are, what, $55 or so now? Check out what Arne posted in regards to the new Grendel mags:
(snip)..."However, dont be a twit, CP products is offering a SHOT order special for $22.95 each... Go to their website and order them,,, the special is over Sunday. If you cancel your order with CSS.com, I wont be offended,,, take advantage of the manufacturer giving a launch deal.

I have been busy making the rounds of other booths. People are very excited about the 6.5 Grendel expansion with multiple key manufacturers, high capacity magazines and of course, the Wolf ammo which will be hard for the "other" cartridge to compete against. Even if someone made the "other" ammo for $12.00 a box, the Wolf ammo will be 50% less in cost... it price competitive with low cost .223 Rem."At that price, I just bought several. After Sunday, I'm thinking I'd be sorry I didn't!
