Re: What to do with a DPMS Oracle?

Well, it's been two months since I acquired this DPMS AR-15 and I couldn't be happier with it! Besides the mods shown in the pictures, I replaced the handguard with Magpul MOE and installed a Magpul AFG, also added a MBUS rear-sight. I've put 1,600 thru it and haven't had a single failure... it just...

GRB Gun Show - May 18

I went to the gun show at the George R Brown with my daughter, BIL and nephew yesterday. My nephew wants to join his HS clays team and is looking for a deal on an O/U shotgun. I haven't been to a gun show in half a year... - first off, looks like they were plenty of ARs, sub $1,000 and over. My impr...

Re: What to do with a DPMS Oracle?

Thanks... very good suggestions! I already see this going as v1.0 (trigger guard, stock, red dot & grip) and a v2.0 (iron sights, handrails, sling plate, light, etc.) :roll: I wish I'd read your post last night... I had settled on the Magpul CTR and ordered already... but out of curiosity, what ...

Settled on a Sightmark Tactical Red Dot... and I'll put an iron sight on the gas block

Re: What to do with a DPMS Oracle?

Looking into: 1. Trigger guard: Magpul enhanced trigger guard... there's one that has the Texas flag engraved :lol: :txflag: 2. Grip: Magpul MOE Plus 3. Stock: Magpul CTR or STR... leaning towards the STR due to the extra cheek rest area... Haven't looked at red dots yet... that's next I knew when I...

Re: What to do with a DPMS Oracle?

I don't intent to mess with the trigger at this point, so the mods I'm planning are simply to make it more ergonomic... and I want to keep it light so my daughters can handle it. Although using it as a backup HD is intriguing and I'll look into perhaps adding a light as MoJo suggested.

Thanks!

What to do with a DPMS Oracle?

Stopped by my LGS today on the way back from the NRA convention... They had a DPMS Oracle RFA3-OC going slightly above MSRP and I pulled the trigger and bought it... it's the black one on this link: http://www.dpmsinc.com/556-ORACLE_ep_135-1.html Not exactly in love with it, so here are a few things...

Re: Hey Stores, I'm going to remember.....I promise!!!

Is $29.95 for the 525 Remington HP's? It was going for $22 about a month ago but they we're out (at least in Spring). Carter's ain't my favorite... unfortunately they're the best supplied 'round here... once things get back to normal, wouldn't mind driving a bit farther to support other shops that s...

22 LR in Houston Area

Anybody having any luck finding 22LR in the Houston area? The Academy in Humble has been out since January and Carter's in Spring used to have (limit one box per day), but I haven't seen any lately. Carter's has 9mm, 40, 223/5.56 on their shelves, in case anyone is looking, but it's limited to a box...
