      I had a buddy call me at work telling me that the local shooting range had an AR they just got in. So he called them and had them hold it for me. It's not a top of the line by any means but it was cheap. It's a DPMS Oracle. It was brand new and I got it at 740.00. I believe that was the price before everyone got scared of the ban. So I figure I for sure didn't get hurt regardless. I don't think. I'll post a pic when I get a chance.

      they should be going down on price now within months due to the senate dropping the bill to ban assault weapons

      They won't go cheaper than that. That was the price before they went up. Or at least from my research. What's going to happen is all these guys that went out and bought all the ARs up to begin with, are going to be stuck with what they bought as the prices get back to normal, and they will be unloading them like crazy. I'm glad I didn't jump on that bandwagon. It sure will be nice to see the ammo back on the shelves.

      That's mainly from the people running out and buying up the ammo to re-sale...half of them don't even shoot. Very irritating!! I've got 2 boxes of .223, but that's all. I think once all of this scare is over with, the ammo will come back too. I can remember quite a few years ago, I guess around the Clinton bans, the same thing happened. It will just take some patience at the moment.

      Yeah, I have read quite a bit on it now. There are guys out there that think they aren't good, but those mostly seem to be the ones that think if it's not 1500.00, it's not a good one. I have read quite a few reviews talking about it's accuracy and dependency. With me just plinking around, I don't think I'll have any issues.

      Guys here wait in line for the doors to open on the days the trucks get here, and they rush in like it's Christmas. 25000 rounds of ammo gone by lunch at Gander EVERY time it comes from what I've been told. It's crazy.

      DPSM is not bad, I have a DPMS panther lite and enjoy shooting it as much as my tricked out custom AR.

      only thing I would change on it is the trigger. get a custom drop in and it will shoot just like like the expensive RRA or bushys. CDDN has mags for $24 in stock. have not found any .223 or 5.56.

      my panther is a 1x9 barrel twist as well and shoots lighter 55 gr rounds the best, cant tell a dif until you get out to 150+ yards with the heavier stuff

      congrats and welcome to the AR club

      Any recommendations on trigger? Nice! I looked at CDDN but didn't see any Dark Earth mags....that's what I would rather have.

      What about optics? The Oracle comes with no sights and I want a red dot. I watched a review video of a BSA (I believe it was) from Gander and got a good review...only 39.00
