Ok I have been doing alot of reading up on different types of assault rifles and have decided to buy an ar before the end of the year, so sometime in the next 6 months. I want to buy it in that time in case we have another ban with a new president. Anyways which brand should I buy few of the cops I talk to around here are saying DPMS or RRA but that is just a few narrowed opinions because one of them has his FFL and those are the brands he deals in mostly. I wan a bigger picture of what more people think also between those two the major difference I see is RRA is a lifetime warranty and DPMS is 3 years I believe it was 3 anyways just a few years compared to lifetime. So what are yall's opinions???

 

My AR is a Colt, but I've been looking at DPMS for a new upper.

The platform is so versital, you just need to start with a quality lower. Both the Rock River and the DPMS are great!

Grab a Ciener kit, and blast away with 22's. It's the most fun you can have with your clothes on!!!!!

 

I love the Rock River, hands down the best, granted I am waiting for the MASADA for my next purchase.

 

I have a DPMS and have been very pleased. Quality product with fair price.

 

check out http://www.POF-USA.com They make a quality AR piston driven alot cleanier and all the guts are heat treated and coated Its gonna be my next gun.

 

I prefer RRA or Aramalite. RRA is a smaller company, but makes a very quality product.

 

Everyone and their sister has an AR clone, be different and get yourself a Styer Aug, or the American made copy.

Of course if your a lefty, you gotta put out the extra $200 for the left eject bolt, unless you like the smell of hot brass and burning nose hair!
Great reliable little rifle, and if you can find a good used Austrian AUG, you will be the only kid on the block that's got one.

 

If your heart is really set on an AR, look at Armalite, the AR180 is a quality weapon at a really great price, I think it's around $850 msrp. Course if you look at Armalite, don't pass up the AR10's, that is a real AR battle rifle.

 

I agree. If I could afford an AR10T I would have one. But I can't, so I dont.

 

I get all dewy eyed over the AR10B, I can't help it, I like the wood furniture, it makes it look like a high brow, giant Matel toy. But I just can't find it in myself to pony up the pesos. And it's $500 less than the 10T, so I just put wood on my G3
