Armalite AR-10A4, Is it worth it?

[Dracomeister]

Just found a new Armalite AR-10A4 at my LGS, $999 out the door. I already have a DPMS LR308 with a 16" heavy carbine barrel, SSA-E trigger, and Magpul MOE furniture that shoots great. The AR-10 has a thinner barrel  but with a mid length tube and is also equipped with the Armalite 2 stage trigger and MOE furniture. I thought of buying the AR as my "plinking" toy and then fitting the DPMS with a 20" rifle length system for long range accuracy.  Any thoughts? Is the AR a worthy investment?  Thanks

Can't go wrong with the AR-10.

Dam that sounds like a good price!

  That does sound like a good deal .

Yeah, go for it!

That's a hell of a price on that. I take it from the numbers that it's a B model. Go for it Draco.

Go for it but you might be surprised which rifle ends up being your "plinker".
