| 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? |
|
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. |
|
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. |

Welcome to Arfcom!! Have fun!! Think about paying the $24.00 to become a Team member. You can do this in the Arfcom Store. Again, welcome! Agreed. Money is tight at ARFCOM since Phillip Seymour Hoffman shuffled off this mortal coil and increased the supply. |
