O K YOU GOT ME

I am retired military and did my last tour as an infantry soilder in Iraq. I carried an M4 carbine and really liked it but after my return really had no interest in owning a Black Gun. Well the more I keep watching the junk comming out of the candidates for president it dawned on me that if I think I might ever want one now might be the time to get one. Well I went into my local shop the other day and he had 1 complete DPMS lower and 5 stripped lowers. The stripped lowers were in consecutive serial numbers. Needless to say I walked out with all 6. Now my goal is to have at least 20 lowers before the new president takes office and to have at least 1 complete AR-10 and 5 AR-10 lowers. Wish me luck.

Thank you sir, for your service !

Have fun with all those and Good Luck !

I wish I could afford to make a purchase like that. I just assembled my first AR last week, really enjoyed it. Started with a stripped DPMS lower and the rest was a Del-Ton rifle kit ( mid-length version) it went together well and I pleased with the results.

I think you made a wise decision to get after the AR at this time, I only hope it was'nt "necessary" as some of feel it is.

Is 165.00 a good price for an Eagle Arms (by Armalite)Stripped lower AR-10 308 Win caliber stripped lower receiver?

Enjoy your purchases. Hope you never have to use them for anything but hunting and fun. Better to have them and not need them than to need them and not have them. Good shooting.

Wow i wish I could do that. It would take me about 9 months to do that with the stupid one gun a month plus 7 bus day waiting period (which starts AFTER the paper work comes back) where I live.
