Been outta work for 8 months and need the cash.
This is a DPMS Lo-Pro Classic, your basic no frills "starter" AR15. It has a 16 bull barrel (almost an inch in diameter at the muzzle) and shoots great. I am selling it with a Simmons 3x9x50 scope and a Rock River two stage trigger. It also comes with two ten round magazines and a nylon shoulder strap. The finish is close to perfect on the gun (rate it a conservative 95%). Scope has a couple dings but not bad.
To buy this rig retail would run around $825 (around $650 for gun, $50 for scope, $25 for rings and $100 for trigger). Will take $650 for whole setup from a HM member and buyer pays shipping to FFL. This is/was my favorite calling gun and has accounted for more than a few coyotes. I wouldn't be selling it if not for the hard times.


Here is a couple links to reviews of this gun: http://www.castle-arms.com/dpms/lo-pro-review-page-1.jpg http://www.castle-arms.com/dpms/lo-pro-review-page-2.jpg

I couldn't tell... Does this have forward assist and dust cover?
Oops! Read the review links and had my question answered. [ February 28, 2003, 08:15 AM: Message edited by: Jay Nistetter ]

No forward assist Jay...but for AZ, you'd probably want one with a dust cover.

Hey, is this forward assist necessary? I have a Colt and have never had a failure. Is it that big a deal? A "must have"?
Good hunting. LB

Dawg;sorry to hear about the hard times.Letting go of any gun is hard to do.I've had to do it myself. Leonard the only reason I see a possible need for a foreward assist is forgetting to put one on top leaving the truck.Kinda noisy letting it go full force.Sometimes when easing the bolt closed it wont lock completely without a little help.New topic,the guns you wish you had'nt parted with.
