Hello was created by stevec5ws6
My name is Steve... I have been shooting for years, owned various AR 15's. and have started longing for a 308 AR I've shot a lot of pistol in USPSA and IDPA. Reloaded for that done some limited rifle reloading.

I have read some great reviews of SOME ar's and not so great of others.

I've built a few AR 15's but it seems the 308's are pretty different animals.

I'm debating about building my own, or buying a DPMS LR308 looking for upb moa accuracy and a bbl length that is managble, eventually I may add a suppressor. I plan to pick up one for my 300 blackout in the next year or so.

Also thought I would add that my signup experience was long and difficult, more so than most forums. .

but in a nut shell that's me, and I hope to learn a lot here.

Welcome Steve, the signup will be well worth it B) we have some of the most knowledgeable people in the world right here :clap: Sounds like you will also have a lot to offer :thumbs: Personally I would not count out the ArmaLite's they are coming out with a lot of new models, pleas take a look at there web site. But then again nothing beats building your own, for the personal satisfaction :cowboy:

Thanks for the welcome, Armalite is the origiona, and possibly the best. but I just can't see paying the 3-500 more for anything out there... nice support of the sponsor though :)

Glad you found us! :welcome:
Consider putting an Armalite together from parts. They had their 10B upper assemblies on sale recently. You can find the matching lower on other websites for a bit less than Armalite's. If you've assembled the AR15 variants then you will have no trouble with the .308.

Welcome Steve. Since I got into the 308 platform, my 5.56's are becoming more and more safe queens.Just a more capable rifle.
