I'm thinking about building a .308 flat top ar with 20" barrel.... Trying to get ideas for it and want input and even pictures and price and parts list.... Ok Nj forums community, lets see em!!!!

ok so back in july i posted a topic asking about scopes for a .308 rock river lar-8 i had on order. the rifle was order and was to have been in this month. however my dealer called rock river and it is now pushed back until at least january because rock river is waiting on barrels... so now my advice i need is... do i wait? and when it comes in, it comes in? or do i try to get a different brand, sooner?? but here is the catch: i do not want a short barrel, i want 20" barrel, i want a flat top, optics ready type rifle, and i want it to have a forward assist and the dust cover (ejection port cover). so it must have: - 20" barrel - flat top, optics ready - forward assist - ejection port cover thank you, Joey

just a thought.. i didnt have time to read all these posts, so someone may have mentioned this, but why spend all that money on a .22, when you can buy a rugar 10-22 for about half the price and never have a problem??

i second this!!

niceeeee... but where is optics for sale forum? i see marketplace

thanks guys.. im gonna keep browsing and researching because i have time, but if something comes around on sale then maybe i'll jump

yes, i do believe im getting a good deal, so im happy, and yes the anticipation is killing me but i already bought 2 other rifles in the mean time to help ease the pain of waiting hahahahah it'll be more or recreation and target shooting rifle.. im not a competition shooter or anything, and i rarely go to a rifle range, the kinda shooting we do is farms and gravel pits hahahahaha but i'll start to do some research on Vortex scopes.. the thing that was nice about the Nikon M-308 is that it comes with the rings and mount, so thats a positive

well if you must know why the waiting, im saving alot of money by buying the rifle from my friend.. his father owns a range/store and im getting it at cost, and i worked the cost off by topsoiling thier front yard and grading it.. so it didnt cost me but a few hours of my time and some topsoil...not to mention i got some options from rra added to it, so technically its not a shelf rifle.... so it was an easy trade as for my budget, im thinkinig $500+-

hey i know this is off topic, but what brand is you flip up rear sight??? thank you

well first off, im loving this site, and im ashamed i've never heard of it, or been a part of it before the past month or two, but you guys (and possibly girls) are great with your comments and suggestions, help and even pictures!!!! anyways..... i have a Rock River Arms lar-8 .308 on order, this is a flat top AR rifle with a 20" barrel... now im asking people that have something similar (or the same) to suggest scopes... im leaning towards a Nikon M-308 BDC (bullet drop compensator) 4-16x42, but im open to ideas because i have months to do research, since Rock River Arms gave me a "5 month" backorder when i ordered it in May. Thanks, Joey

wow you guys are great thanks for the input now i know what to look for and which direction to start....

well ive never bought a DPMS, im more of a rock river/ bushmaster guy myself, but if you must know, my good friends dad owns a gun store and they're giving me a knock out price on a brand new oracle, pretty much buying it cause of price... im not a compition shooter or anything.. if i send 500 rds thru it a year, thats alot for me... ok back to the thread.. thanks for that info i will look for front "gas block" sights..... but next question, do you recommend buying them seperate? or is there kits with front gas block and rear rail?? thanks

i will be buying a DPMS oracle, it is a flat top rifle with a rail on the top of receiver and a rail on top of the gas block. i will be mounting flip up sights on it.. however the height of the rail on the gas block is less then that of the rail on top of the receiver.. my question to you guys is, does any companies make flip up sights to adjust for this difference in height???? thanks, joey
