bobk538447 Posted June 18, 2017 Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 I recently got a AR10 DPMS pattern, which is side charged. The only identification markings that I could find on it is a large N on the bottom rear take down. If anyone knows the brand please let me know.

You REALLY need to post pics of what you have, here in this thread. You've just asked the impossible question, if you help no further. Congrats.

bobk538447 Posted June 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 You're right pictures speak a thousand words. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 Looks just like a genuine DPMS slick-side upper. Also looks like it's got an index clip stuck in the top picatinny rail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survivalshop Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 Looks like its been converted to a side charing Upper . I will look at mine to see if any markings on them . Photo's can show details , that may not be noticed by all . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue109 Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 Agree it looks like a factory upper that has been machined. Additionally, appears to be DPMS "High" Rail height for the sake of finding the proper handguard to fit it. Measure to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survivalshop Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 From my DPMS Upper receiver , this is an old build , my first 308AR many years ago , probably 10-12 years ago . Its before I was at this forum , & maybe before this Forum its self , because its how I met Imschur , who is king $hit here well maybe to himself . My guess is , as said , it may be a Side Charger made or altered by Fulton Armory , but its a DPMS Slick side as 98 noted . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobk538447 Posted June 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 (edited) Thank you guys for all of the help. I saw a picture of a earlier Fulton Armory side charger on the web, but couldn't find any markings. I bought the upper and a stripped POF P308 lower at a gunshow this weekend for $200. Didn't need another one but the price was right. I kind of just stumbled into this forum as I am a .308 AR shooter. I have a KAC SR-25 older match rifle, and a LMT MWS .308. My younger son has one of the DPMS Gen II rifles. Edited June 19, 2017 by bobk538447 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My younger son has one of the DPMS Gen II rifles. The POF & DPMS have different Receiver Pin sizes ( Disassembly & Pivot ) , if memory serves me . Fulton sold DPMS Receivers for a while early on & then supposedly made or had their own made up later . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted June 20, 2017 Report Share Posted June 20, 2017 Damn, I need to check my original DPMS upper receiver and see if it's got that "N" on the lug - not a slick side, but I wonder if it's there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
