Frankh252 Posted January 18, 2016 Report Posted January 18, 2016 Looking for compatible replacement parts for my new DPMS Oracle .308 AR. All DPMS receiver kits I find are "Out of Stock" so wondering what other brands (if any) would work well. Specifically looking for the small parts such as the springs, pins, etc that are found in upper & lower receiver parts kits, not things like stocks or barrels. Just want to have replacements on hand in case something breaks or gets lost.
unforgiven Posted January 18, 2016 Report Posted January 18, 2016 https://dsgarms.com/rifle-platforms-ar10-lower-receiver-parts?pagesize=36 , http://www.midwayusa.com/product/877204/dpms-lower-receiver-parts-kit-ar-15 they are good about backorders.http://www.sportsmansguide.com/product/index/dpms-lower-receiver-parts-kit?a=650811 see if this works for ya.
Frankh252 Posted January 24, 2016 Author Report Posted January 24, 2016 Thanks, unforgiven. I got the improved G2 ejector in case the original breaks. I'll keep keeping my eye open for other parts if they become available and backorder when possible.
bubbas4570 Posted January 24, 2016 Report Posted January 24, 2016 You can also give these guys a call...APF ArmoryJust make sure to let them know what generation of DPMS you are needing parts for, as they makee some of the parts for DPMS.
Frankh252 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Posted February 10, 2016 Many thanks bubbas4570DPMS seems to be in the market of selling guns that they don't make parts for. I have contacted them to try to get parts but that has proven about as useful as their website 'store'
Frankh252 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Posted February 10, 2016 Midway has moved pretty much all of their DPMS 308 parts to no backorder available status. According to them they are not receiving replacement parts from the mfgr. All they have available is a buffer & spring. Same as I am seeing at other places such as Brownell's etc.
Frankh252 Posted February 11, 2016 Author Report Posted February 11, 2016 Bubbas4570, I forgot to add that the APF Armory site does have the lower receiver parts kit in stock so will order ASAP and I appreciate the help.
Frankh252 Posted March 2, 2016 Author Report Posted March 2, 2016 I've since obtained a couple LPK's but just had to share DPMS's woeful parts supply debacle aka extreme shortage by sharing that I recently obtained a factory DPMS LR308 LPK BAAAAAWWWWAHHHHMC Hammer can't touch this lolSpeaking of music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3khH9ih2XJg
