    DPMS purchase TODAY Sunday the 13th???

    So, at my LGS, I spotted a DPMS upper for $450

    16' flattop , w/BCG & charging handle , 1:9 twist , no sights.

    I do like this configuration.

    I also have a complete DMPS lower hanging around right now.


    A Midway deal was brougth to my attention. Appeared to be the same upper plus a Free LPK all for $350... Limited time last month, no longer available...


    Question is: in light of the current environment, to I grab this Upper at $450?

    Or, do I wait...?

    Your thoughts....

      If your in Sac County, grab it. That's a deal up in that area.
      Been gone too long. It's been 15 to 20 years since i had to shelf my guns. Those early years sucked.
      I really miss the good old Pomona Gun Shows.

        Yeah, I'm in the sac area.

        So far that's two for a GO.

        I appreciate your feedback.

        Would be nice to complete that lower...

            16 foot! That's huge.

              16' gives that tiny little 55gr pill time to pick up speed.
              For me it depends what BCG is included w\the upper..

                What LGS is this? I need an upper, this would fit the bill.

                  Gun vault , Rocklin.

                  The BCG is one of those "lighter" ones where the rear underside had been shaved off some for weight.

                  Not sure how desirable that is...

                  I'm still meditating...

                  If you beat me to it, congrats.

                    Thanks for the info. I'm helping my buddy piece together two rifles for Christmas , one for him and one for his son. Got everything but the uppers at this point. I forwarded the info to him to see if he might want to go with it. Now we play the waiting game.

                      If you're not in a hurry, Captrix Arms has the DPMS upper for $410 with free shipping.

                        I believe Turners has a complete AR from DPMS for a mere $429 til the end of the Xmas season.

                        I looked at it before I bought the Anderson Mfg. Upper they were selling for $259 sans BCG and CH which I picked up from a fellow CGer.

                          Why not just build one?

                          $450 is high for just an upper.. Unless
                          You want t built by the manufacture
