dang. nice ...

what is it exactly

Bindernut · 05-04-2012, 01:24 AM

I see a DPMS AR sitting on the chair.
What model and what pricetag if you don't mind me asking?

jbmid1 · 05-04-2012, 02:09 AM

DPMS Sportical, .308.
My local Sportsman's Warehouse had it marked down to $899.
I had the extra Bushnell scope hanging around at home. It'll work
for break-in. If it works well, I'll keep it that way.

And at that price, it came with a semi-hard plastic case and 2 20 rd mags.

thought the mag was too big for .223 Cool !!!

Nice jbmid1! and in .308...!
Looking forward to a range report with your new DPMS!

Very nice rifle,and that was a great price. A friend of mine has one of those and it's nearly unbearably fun to shoot. Great purchase! I need to make a trip to sportsmans tonight, might have to see if that sale is here too...

If Federal doesn't have one, check out the store in Yelm. We used to hit up their sales when we lived in Graham.

jbmid1 · 05-06-2012, 12:44 AM

Just ordered some bulk ammo too!
