acgeorge Posted August 12, 2017 Report Posted August 12, 2017 New to the 308. A recent visit to Camp Perry and the DPMS building, I found my self walking out with a handful of parts to build a 308. When I purchased these parts I had little knowledge of the 308's and the variations from the many manufacturers. All of the parts I purchased at DPMS are compatible, however, I made a stop at the Rock River Arms building where the had tables full of near new 308 handguards, so I picked one up for $75. Seemed like a good deal until I realized the thread difference on the barrel nut. Other than an hand guard, I need the lower, bolt and charging handle to complete the rifle. I'll keep an eye out for the remainder of the components and hopefully complete the build in a few months. Thanks for a great source of information. Andy
