Just wondering if any one has seen these or owns one, An what were thought of them. Not much info on the net about them yet. My LGS got one in and I put it on layaway the day it came in. Been wanting a AR in 308 for a while and for the price with all the goodies on it didnt seem like to bad a deal. Thanks fellas.

I saw one and thought it looked nice . how about you give us a detailed range report when you get the rifle.

I have one, and I really like it.  But there are a few issues.  It is VERY heavy for a 16" rifle.  The trigger sucks, and should be the first thing you replace.  It also has a commercial buffer tube, and I put a new extended recoil pad on, but now the stock won't close all of the way because it is the commercial version of the MOE stock.  It is nice that they include a decent sling mount to start out with, but you will probably want to get better set-up.  Don't get me wrong though, it is a great rifle out of the box, it just needs a little work.

Thanks Maverick, It did seem a bit heavy. But the fit n finish looked very good. How is the recoil with it, Ive never shot a 308 AR before just kind of curious. Do you have an optic on yours? What kind of ammo do you use in it? Im still trying to justify the purchase, I keep running back n forth between and just telling them to take it off layaway, but I cant make myself call

I do reload, but do you think it would be ok to use like some Wolf or silver bear as blasting ammo in it. I dont use steel case in my 223/5.56 AR's but 308 is a bit more pricey. Any of you guys with the DPMS 308's use Wolf, silver bear or similar?

I saw a picture of one in a magazine over the weekend - looks great. Keep us posted as I may be interested in getting one myself...here's a pic below for those who haven't seen it.
