Ok here we go, I have just put in for and should be getting my Armalite lower in a few days(L10PCB)and to top this cake off i am looking real hard at the Armalite 243 upper (U10A4243BF)since it is a good round for deer hunting in V.A. but the thing i need from you more seasoned AR10 owners is a good run down of what i will and will not love about this upper.

All comments welcome and please help me make a decision that will justify the butt chewing my old lady is sure to give me for bringing yet another gun in to this house. ;)

The 243 upper sounds pretty good. I have a 10T in caliber 260 Rem and it is GREAT! It is sooooooooooo accurate I can't miss!

Just out of curiosity did you build yours from parts or get the full build?

I bought it whole from Armalite. I already had a AR-10B so I new the quality was there.


Make sure to get the "Match" trigger.

I got the lower built and it has the tac trigger in it but as the money comes in i will be adding the NM trigger.

As i have the tools for a trigger job i will fine tune the tac trigger and all i can do from there is hope it is enough to hold me over till i can upgrade it.

How bad could it be? Every 243 I have ever fired has been very accurate. Go for it! Recoil will be close to zero.

As of now i am 90% sure i will be getting the 243 upper but the local shop said i had a week wait for my lower and i am now starting my forth week of waiting, he takes much longer an i will have enough cash saved up for the AR10 Super S.A.S.S. RIFLE. LOL

I wish i could say yes but that ain't the case here, 33 days in to my wait and my head is about to pop.

On the bright side the shop owner must feel my pain as i call him every few days to remind him he told me about a week wait. lol

Side note: pics and post will be up when i get my paws on it.;)
