Actually, I would tend to think you do need to defend your position. If you stand up to same something, like you did, especially if it's a bit controversial, then you should be prepared to defend what you said. That's how it works.

And I am not saying that all of them are good, it is just that most all of the ones I have shot are great. I am not saying that all rifles that shoot minute of wash tube are good underneath, but I would bet a good 60% are.
I have bought a couple of rifles that the folks that owned them swore were junk (an M1A and two ARS) And I bought them cheap. The M1A had a steady diet of M80 ball ammo made in Venezuela and both ARs were JUNK after they "couldn't get good groups with TWO different ammos Wolf and Monarch...and some of those were the heavy match bullets"......Outstanding!
BTW did any of these 3-4 rifle owners call DPMS? I know Randy Luth quite well, and I guaranty he would make them right if he knew about them.

Why call DPMS? You are going to get another DPMS barrel to replace it. Better off getting a quality Kreiger or other barrel.
Yeah, a half minute Krieger barrel is always soooo much better than a half minute DPMS barrel, because it costs soooo much more. Everyone knows that if they both shoot a half inch group at 100 yards, the Krieger will always be more expensiv.....er.....ah..... more accurate, because it's half inch is slightly tighter than the DPMS half inch.
I guess I am not a gear snob. If it is accurate I don't care whose name is on it, but hey your milage and wallet may vary.
BTW I'll take all those bad DPMS barrel you want to screw off, since they are all so bad, I know you wouldn't feel right in selling them! KurtM

I like the JP single stage for my AR...easy installation and adjustment...I think it was about $140.
I went to a buddys house we have a bench set up and a target at 95 yards. longest we could get on his land...Shot my DPMS-308 and my Weatherby 270 of corse the Weatherby was more accurate BUT the DPMS was kickass I will not change the barrel like i was advised to earlier when this post started. The trigger group however needs some work but Im using iron sights for the time being and was getting 1 1/2" groups with hand loads. I would not be worried about long range hunting with this gun now that i have shot it, Im sure once i get the trigger worked on and put a nice scope on it my group will improve. LOVE IT
That's great!! Sounds like you got a good one. I haven't had a chance to shoot mine yet. I'm hoping it shoots tight groups like it should. I agree about the trigger. It sucks bad. Of course my other AR triggers are a Accuracy Speaks and a JP, so pretty much anything is going to feel like crap compared to those. I definitely need to order an adjustable JP for the AR10.
Good deal. Don't call it quits yet on ammo....try some factory stuff out or vary the hand loads in half-grain increments to figure out what YOUR rifle likes, each gun is different. You may be able to squeeze some more accuracy out of it yet.
1 1/2" groups with a stock trigger and iron sights??? Why it,s just your normal "tent stake/just a DPMS barrel"!
Exactly!!! Yank that POS off of there and send it to me. I'll dispose of it for you.
