New M4, DPMS

Just got my new DPMS M4. It is beautiful, now just can't wait to go to the range and shoot it. I got it with a Target Sports sporting scope with gree/red reticle lights, along with the detachable carrying handle. Got it all for $1000. Hope it was a good deal. Don't know much about DPMS but, I saw it and had to have it. It has the 16in barrel and collapsable stock. Cant wait to break it in!!!!

Sounds like a good deal to me, especially with optics. DPMS is a good solid brand.

Congratulations, you're going to LOVE it!

With DPMS, if you're going to reload, make sure you get a small base re-sizer die or use Redding Body Dies (very tight chambers). In my experience you can expect close to 1 MOA groups out of that puppy--they are truly outstanding rifles.

M-4 type AR's are handy little carbines. Enjoy your new gun.

I've had a DPMS AR-15 for several years now with about 2K rounds through it. Very accurate and reliable piece...you'll like it. The only malfunction I've ever had was some reloads I bought at a gun show...they wouldn't run in a friend of mines AR either. Needless to say I pitched the rest of the reloads...

Congrats. Just make sure you follow the break-in procedure in your owner's manual, and stay away from corrosive or steel-cased ammo. Either one will void your warranty. Have fun!
