Just purchased my first ar15.. DPMS A-15 model. Have been shopping around for a good starter and came across this weapon at a good price. Any complaints or problems I should be on the watch for? Honest input is appreciated.

Welcome to arfcom...congrats on the new rifle.

You'll need some thick skin to make it here in general discussion.  Go to the AR section and start doing some reading.  Stay out of the picture threads, they'll make your credit card cry.

What's the intended use of your new firearm?

No pics.

New dudes are supposed to post pics of their wives or girlfriends.  Then we will answer your questions.  Sorry.  It's tradition.

Thanks! Thick skin, I have. Haha. Just purchased the firearm for general defense and range fun.

See what I was saying with that thick skin thing!  

Yes, one of the many unwritten rules here is you must post pics of a new firearm.

Hi there.
2/4/2014 6:03:32 PM EDT
[#14]
First I would say welcome.
 I own a DPMS 16 lite and have been pleased with it. It eats whatever I feed it without complaint and tolerates my neglecting to  keep it sparkling clean. Foe general use they make a fine gun. I am not sure I would trust it to competition or the rigors of combat but that is not what I got it for anyway. Don't let the "tier 1" snobs get to you.

You poor man. The General Discussion forum is not for new guys. Stick with the "AR Discussions" forum to get your feet wet with the technical stuff. Come play over here when your skin is hardened.

Welcome to the class of 2014.  You've already bought it, so it's really too late for good or bad opinions.  Just go shoot it.  If there's a problem, you'll find it.

Don't feed it crap ammo.

Agreed. Money is tight at ARFCOM since Phillip Seymour Hoffman shuffled off this mortal coil and increased the supply.
