You mean the AR10?
A couple of board members have them

Yes, but I have seen them variously designated, according to manufacturer, OA-10 for instance.

If I could shoot often enough it would have been my choice for a centrefire rifle that would do pretty much everything.

Anyone have pics of one? Do they look similar to the AR15's?

They're quite big and heavy and can have problems as like the .223 AR, there's no primary extraction.

I personally think that for the UK, a bolt gun is better

Think AR15 for someone with large hands!

I think SGC have a couple. Last I heard they were about £1700 ish. Although they aren't on his website anymore. I think there's someone on the PR circuit selling a 16" carbine version as well.

Shot a mates AR-10 in the pre-ban days. A bit lighter than my SLR, looked like the AR-15 on steriods IIRC. Can't much more than that.

found this, DPMS

We're in the wrong country, er no it's our laws that are wrong

They are too heavy, too expensive, and can't do anything better than a good bolt gun at half the price.

Some would say that about our AR-15's (but not me)

Hmmm. Perhaps I just need to batter my T4 with a hammer until it accepts M14 mags.
