Say for $1000 or less is this worth it? Appreciate any insight, brand new to this.

I say no. You are going to spend money making it jersey compliant. The DPMS oracle is a lower end AR. save your money

Eh, not terrible.  But you can probably get as good of a deal if not better from a vendor.  AR's are back to reality pricing wise.

I equate their use of "tricked out custom" in the headline to be on par with someone telling you their 1998 nissan altima is "race ready" because they have shiny rims and a spoiler.

Plus watch the price jump in the last few minutes of that auction...it'll go for way more than its worth.

People dog the DPMS. The company itself is a pretty good brand. However like others said here, definitely stay away from the Oracle and Sport Tactical models.

Realistically the tricked outness of it is a $29 red dot, a $20 bipod, $30 rail and a $30 light. Minus 4 mags...

The one I linked to has been going around and around with no bids...

Its the import tuner of AR's. NOS stickers are the only thing missing

I meant the OP.  His has 24 bids and if it goes the way GB does.  Will have a flurry of bids in the last couple of minutes

Can you guys give me some tips of what to look for? So far all I really know is chrome lined barrels are more durable and reliable.

 

I'm looking for something cool looking (not ashamed to admit it), in 5.56/223, around $1000 or less, I really like the look of the Ruger SR556 (I think it's the uniqueness of the shroud around the barrel).

In that price range right now you are looking at M&P 15, Stag, Windham Weaponry, etc...

 

AR styled rifles are like legos for adults. In ten minutes you could have your quad rail installed, then you will have your coolness. Don't let a set of standard set of glacier guards turn you off.

 

The "shroud" is actually a foregrip or hand guard. Shroud would be a heat shield for a shotgun, machine gun, etc. Not busting, just some info.

Good info rhanks
