Buddy picked up an AR10A at the local gun show today. Under $1,500. Very nice rifle. If and when the weather gets better it will be great to see how the 16", CR-MO, CL 1:11.25 barrel performs.

I'll suggest that he joins. He has a couple AR-15's but this is his first .308. He looked at an AR10B at a show in the fall but didn't buy. He's had buyer's remorse and was itching to get one. Couldn't believe the price so he jumped all over the A. He would have liked a T but we haven't seen one in our area for over six months.

I don't think .308 AR prices have quite seen the jump that AR15 prices have. At any rate, I hope your bud decides to join the forum as well.

The dealer said PMags and DPMS mags would fit the AR-10A. Armalite states the PMags will fit but doesn't say anything about the DPMS .308 mags. Anyone have experience with them yet?

sometimes there is confusion on the whole "A" series / "B" series thing.

A quick way to determine is the serial number... The "A" series serial number will start with an A also...

If you look at the ArmaLite factory thread... there are differences listed to help in that too.

No but it makes sense they would, although the DPMS ones were reporting some reliability issues a while back. They may have solved that since.
