DPMS Extruded Upper 7029 T6 A3 Flattop Alum. 16" Stainless Teflon Coated Barrel 1/10 Twist Custom 308 stainless steel Muzzle Break 5/8-24 DPMS Free Float Tube Light Weight Quad Rail LR-308 Rifle Length Magpul ACS Stock Ergo pistol Grip Nikon 3-9 x 50 BDC Can't wait to go shoot it.

Sweet...I've got a DPMS AR10 and love it. It will drive tacks with that scope. Quite a bit heavier than you 15 huh?

My 15 has a bull barrel & steel quad rail making it quite heavy. This DPMS feels a few ounces lighter thanks to S & J sourcing the lightest parts they could find. Or it could just be perception...maybe I'll weigh them & see.

Bartender, bring me anything except brake fluid, cause I don't plan on stopping!

Yep, you have a fine, generous, wise wife!

very nice setup there. would be interested in weight too. Just weighed it. It's 11 lbs., 2 oz. fully loaded. Heavy compared to bolt gun standards, but not too bad for a AR10 with a bull barrel.
