Finally bought 1. A DPMS. It has a flat top with rails, but no sights, so first thing I need is sights. I plan to put a scope on it, and I have a VX-1Leopold I got off someone in trade, so would really like to mount it if possible. I understand I need a riser to work with flip up or stationary sights, but don't know crap about putting all the stuff together properly. Hell I don't know much about any of this, just how the danged AR rifles basically work and how to strip and clean them. LOL
I also have a stripped 5.56 lower and want to get a lower parts kit and assemble it. Again- no experience with that either. I am wanting to do an AR pistol with it. Eventually.
Sooo, let's start with the sights- something affordable, what brand, where to buy online? I was looking at Sportsman's Guide and Midway and there's cheap, a couple mid priced, and some $$ stuff. I am wanting to buy from an online dealer I can also score some .308 at for a good price. I bought a box of 20 when I bought the rifle in case I want to run out to my land ASAP and do a live fire check.
