It's cute!  Looks like a cut down version of their scout rifle.

Actually, I sold it.  No more M14 battle rifle for me.  I'll probably pick up a new one after the ban expires.  [:)]

I think I'd fork over the $$ for a DPMS Panther 308 (http://www.dpmsinc.com/10browse.asp?Category=FireArms:308+Long+Range+Rifles) before I bought a Bushmaster AR10.  [:)]

The Bushmaster one is just too new, and I have yet to hear a negative opinion on the Panther 308's.

The mags will cost you more than the gun did in the end.  The Bushmaster uses inexpensive FAL mags at $5 to $10 each instead of converted M14 mags at $75 a pop.

I often hear about the "ban" of one type of firearm or the other.  Can someone please explain this situation for me.

thanks!

The "Ban" refers to the 1994 Brady Bill which banned importation and further sales of certain style "Semi-auto assault weapons", plus the sale of high capacity magaines over 10 rounds with new guns.  Any guns or mags mfg prior to the Sept 1994 date are consider "pre-ban" and can have all the evil features that "post-ban guns" cannot, flash hiders, bayonet lugs, folding stocks, etc, etc.  The bill had a 10 year life span which sunsets this year.  I'm sure Paco will add to this.
