Armalite AR-10 .308 Lower receiver....$239

[PhysicsGuy]

Then there is a AR10 .308 clone that uses G3 mags to confuse the issue even more

Yeah that is the LAR8 IIRC, I've heard that there are quite a few problems with the loading dynamics from a magazine designed for a totally different operation.

By the way, when I checked yesterday, Armalite had 24" AR-10T uppers in stock for around $1080, so if you could find a tube/buffer/stock, and LPK, then you could have a complete AR-10 with this lower right now pretty much... Which is much better than waiting 6 months to a year for armalite to produce a rifle for you.

That's pretty much how I built mine, The AR15A2 tube and buttstock are the same parts so you just need the AR10 buffer and spring.

The AR15 LPK is the same except the Pivot pin, Take down pin, Bolt stop catch, and the Magazine catch

That's how long it took for me to get the lowers

Oh geez, I was lucky and got my complete rifle within a month of ordering...

To answer the original question, the only uppers that will fit this one are the ARMALITE AR-10 uppers (or ones that specify ARMALITE format).

DPMS, POF, Knights, etc. all will not work as they are a different format.

Well, duh... but that is not the point...

 

[coctailer]

You won't have to wait 6+ months for these ones.

Thanks, you reminded me to stop my "subscription" to this particular thread. (Mustn't be tempted to spend scarce green rectangles you know).

Don't let that stop you.

 

[ZeroRing]

Don't let that stop you.

It usually doesn't... until I run out of them. (Not everyone here has the budget of... oh... a "penguin").

 

[coctailer]

Maybe that means you need to wiggle it a little bit and drop the price a smidge...

WHAT am I saying!!!??
