    $1399 for a brand spanking DPMS AR15

    Bloody hell that's cheap. Finding it hard to justify what it's going to cost me to get a SL8.

    Probably two parts on the extreme end of a tolerance range.

    I told her I was willing to buy her an engagement AR. She said AR better stand for "another ring"

    Told my wife I didn't believe in the guy only having to shell out for an engagement ring crap and would only buy her an engagement ring if she bought me an engagement surfboard , She still has the ring I snapped my board in Fiji 15 years ago .

    I think an engagement AR is the perfect gift for yourself get it engraved and keep it forever .

    Good to hear Digit.
    I gave up on my DPMS LR308 build after Brownells brought in the rip off US $250 blanket export fee and the NZ peso took a dive for the worse.
    Was going to cost me the same as buying one from Reloaders.
