I was all set to buy a DPMS LR-308 AP4 when I ran across the Rock River Arms LAR-8. Like whoa! Nice rifle!
I see that DPMS offers more configuration options, while the Rock comes stock with a match trigger and Houge grip(and is about $100 less expensive) What are the other pros and cons here?

Good luck finding a LAR8. There's a waiting list a mile and a half long for them...They are currently shipping the flat top midlength. I'm on the list for a flat top rifle length. The appeal for me was the fact that they use FAL magazines instead of a proprietary mag.

Actually Scottysan and I found one in a gunstore last week. It was hanging on the wall with the other black rifles when I saw the FAL mag in the well. It was sweet. Also found a Bushmaster chambered in .450 too.

So did they actually get them running right? I read somewhere that someone tried to make an AR-10 that took FAL mags, but they couldn't get the mags to line up right or something...

I want a semi-auto 308 that does a 10" or less at 1000yrds. I looked at fulton armory but they only offer 22", DPMS has 24" and I can't afford a knight Industries.
RR seams nice but not as accurate (spec wise) Cobb is another option, but hard to find

Is the DPMS or the Fulton capable of that kind of accuracy?

I have been eyeballing the Armalite AR-10 SuperSASS http://www.armalite.com/ItemForm.asp...0-49488ec48776
I am not sure anymore, I just might wind up with a M1A. |

How accurate is the Rock River LAR 8 with the 16" barrel?
