    This is good timing as I've been looking at these too.

    Anyone ever used a Black Rain? An old friend (in arkansas) got a fairly pricey one late last year (though pre sandy hook) but he doesn't have anything else to compare it to.

    I assembled a CMMG lower with a Fulton Armory upper. Other than feeding issues with metal mags no other problems whatsoever. I just use PMags instead :)

    Well I guess I'll find out for myself. My M&P10 has been delivered to my FFL Dealer. Might pick up tonight or tomorrow. Just wanted thoughts before I done the Transfer, instead of reselling it.

    I have G. A. Precision's GAP-10, built off of an Armalite lower. I absolutely love it. A little pricey but fantastic rifle. ( not sure what happened here but I uploaded the photo from my iPad and can't get it flipped back around)

    Is the M&P10 not a regulated firearm, or did you start the paperwork a while ago?

    Sorry I was suppose to go and pick and do the transfer just past Saturday. Do to family illness plans got changed. Hopefully I am off the next three days, I will make it down to my FFL and do the Transfer.
    Yes, I will post pics as soon as I get a chance. Won't be able to shoot it until I get my AR projects taking care of first. Got 3 AR builds to test fire down at my In laws in Fredrick first. Then I can take the Big Brother down and see how it shoots. I will keep this thread posted. Thanks

    That's is what I am looking for. Suitable Sights that would look decent. If not it's going to be a Scope only Rifle. I just didn't know what the Gas Block Rail look like from the Factory Pics.

    Well, duh. Anything from George's shop is top flight. For a factory rifle, I'd go for an LMT.

    Anyone got a line on where I can pick-up or order any of these? Seems lowers, especially in .308, are really hard to find.

    How does the Colt LE901 play into these comparisons? ~$2300 online currently is about in the same ballpark. Is its 308 upper compatible w/ others 308 lowers?

    it uses LR25 Pmags if that helps.

    Same as a couple other brands

    not sure if that makes them compatible. I don't know how the modularity using the mag well adapter with standard 5.56 uppers affects it's compatibility. I have one BTW.
