dennissinaz you do not have an AR-10, you have something built on a P308 lower. cheechako, you do not have an AR-10 you have something built on a LR-308 lower.

Only Armalite makes the AR-10.

Now dennussinaz, I have no clue who Justin at Quentin Defense is, and while I'm sure he's a nice guy, everyone has opinions and if he is selling billet lowers, then you can be sure he will say they are the best and there is no need for forged receivers.

This is the same thing we find with people who sell piston ARS when they say piston is the only way to go. Or people who sell hammer forged barrels, or people who sell cut barrels or people who sell button-rifled barrels. According to these people their way is the best, their product is the best and the others are not nneded.

If forged was not needed, why does DPMS offer all their AR-15 receivers as forged? I would think the AR-15 shooting the diminutive .223 Rem will certainly not need to deal with stresses greater than an AR-type rifle firing the much larger .308 Win.
