I am considering jumping into the 308 game and came across a LGS that has a used Armalite B model with 3 mags and case for $995.00.  All of my (limited) knowledge is on the AR-15 platform so I've been doing my research and trying to catch up.  The gun looks brand new and I was told it has only had about 20 rounds through it before the guy lost his job and had to sell it.  

From what I understand the B model uses the proprietary steel mags and isn't compatible with the more common P-Mag type.

My research says this is a good to fair deal but I thought I would ask people with far more knowledge.

Good to fair?  I'd jump on that deal!



I wouldn't worry about the magazine situation.  You can get the gen 2 magazines for $26.xx in 5-, 10-, and 20- rounds.  The 25-round magazines tends to be about $10 more.  Yeah, that's a little more expensive than PMags, but not enough to really matter.

Thanks for the replies.  If it is still available on Monday I am going to pick it up.

I believe there are some aftermarket mags available now but not sure what brand...

I have an Armalite AR-10B, with 20 inch barrel and A2 stock. It's a very nice gun, with Federal match 168's it will shoot 1.5 to 1.75 at 200 yards, if I do my part.
