most AR-10s ive seen are around 850-1000

Solid ice lower 🤔

That’s not too bad tho?

Thought $850-$1000 was normal for a gun.

Just didn’t wanna drop more than 2k on something if I can avoid it but the FN FAL is prolly gonna be more than that. It’s understandable tho it’s a good gun.

@Bean Drinker go shoot your AR a bit before deciding what’s next

The biggest issue with AR10 rifles is the lack of interchangeability of parts between manufacturers

Also you should think about _why_ you want a .308 rifle.

(Not saying that they are necessarily bad, but don’t just buy one because someone on the web said that you should buy one after you buy an AR)

On the upside, you can run 7.62 NATO through a .308 rifle with no issues because 7.62 NATO is a lighter load than .308

But it might short stroke in semi autos

Rarely

Depends on the rifle

Most are over gassed so you should be fine

Surplus runs in my chinkshit M14 fine

My friend's Garand only really likes 168gr 308, but we ain't shooting that at the range so we make due with the constant failure to feeds

But that's a special case I think

My PSA10 hates 7.62 NATO

But I don't think it's a special case

I think it's a special case in that the Garand was generally rather particular with 30-06 loads, it's likely to be the same with 308

I would expect civilian AR-10s to be made for 308, so they're not like lighter 7.62, but idk about the civilian M1as and stuff like that, is the gas system modified to like 308?

By "stuff like that" I mean rifles originally chambered for 7.62x51

I want the .308 rifle because the first fully auto rifle I fired was an M240 so .308 took my auto cherry and it’s also what I bagged my first deer with.

M1s can be damaged with commercial 30-06 as it can bend the op rod. Some modern replacement parts can reduce damage to the system though

That's the only reason why my Granda didnt buy an M1.
That and Garand thumb because he could easily solve problem 1 by reloading

cause he loads his own shit

You want a modern prod and gas system anyway

True but some people just getting their rifle don't know better

My best friend had that problem but luckily I found out what was going on and stopped him

Tfw you let your brother in law use your levergat to hunt with, and he loses half the parts because he decides to clean it in the woods

Oof

this is why you dont let people use your guns unless you're with them

@shock.advised
nigger
**WHAT**

@shock.advised yeah, really

**W H A T**

Lowkey might trade my USP for another CAI HK93

Imagine trading a good gun for a shit one

Imagine letting anyone touch your gun

My local pawn shop has a cetme .308 for sale, are they worth a shit?

Its a Spanish G3 (sort of, the cetme was made first). Basically the two models in common circulation are the B and C, you can tell them apart by the handguard ( b metal c wood).

Some were made in Spain for the US civ market. If it's marked "Mars" and "Made In Spain" its worth some thing beyond just shooting. The rest are just parts kits assembled either by Century Arms 💩 or some random guy (probably 💩)
