Getting confused on my AR-10 build. I have an Armalite pattern upper and most of the barrels out there are marked "DPMS style". I do not know what that means
I understand that the barrel nut threads are different between Armalite (AR-10) and DPMS but most of the free float handguards that I am looking at come with the correct Armalite thread pattern.
My question is whether the Barrel itself has any difference that would prevent using a "DPMS" barrel in an Armalite upper?
THankt.
P.S. searched this forum and found no answer.
