Basically DPMS is way below and I should stay away.



10 yrs ago DPMS made a respectable product ... not the best, but affordable with decent quality

in 2007 they sold out to Cerberus (Freedom Group) . Within the last 5-6 yrs, many other companies have passed up DPMS by focusing on "quality not quantity" . Cerberus Capitol is basically a bunch of bean counters looking to turn profit.

This = truth.

I have an "AR10" made by DPMS before the Cerberus acquisition. It's the most accurate .308 I have ever shot.

But there's no way I'd buy a DPMS today. The comments about them in this thread mirror the experiences noted by folks on the arf.com and M4.com boards.
