Thinking of buying AR ? But...

Been thinking of buying a AR , but the problem is the one Im looking at is a used heavy barrel with DPMS lower and the price is the same as what I would pay for a new Windham..... What to do ? New or Used ??? Just useing to yote hunt.... But I like the Heavy Barrel, but don't really know anything about round count and if its made well and the other is factory made with zero rounds... Your thoughts may help ???

Never pay full price fr a pieced together used gun...long or short. Get the new one. Shoot it in your way and run it.

Why the heavy barrel for Yotes? I doubt you'll be heating up the barrel on them unless you're not a proficient shooter and there's a shirt load of Yotes at the same time.

For starters, you'd get more help in the "Lon Gun" forum. This is the classifieds.

DPMS is looked down upon in the AR world. I'd much rather go with Windham(old bushmaster) or PSA. What kind of price is on that DPMS? If it's used and not a factory built gun, I'd wouldn't give no more than $500 for it. Market is saturated right now with AR's.

Nothing replaces the feel of a brand new AR in your hands that you just bought.

I don't think I'll ever buy a used AR unless it's a steal. You can buy or build a new one and have what you want for less than most people ask for their used AR's.

Yep. I will just build my own. The only used ARs I would pay a premium for would be a Noveske or Knight's SR-15.

I have come across a lot of positive feedback from Windham owners so I wouldn't hesitate to get one over the DPMS.

get the windam, it be a lot lighter and easier to carry why hunting. good ammo will destroy a yote from ether.
