I want to get a MK12 and I'm not really interested in having an exact copy but I do want a quality rifle. I can lay hands on a DPMS for $50 and shipping less than a High Caliber upper.

What are your thoughts?
 
Re: DPMS MK 12 thoughts?

for the 50$ diff. really bro, go High caliber, do it right the first time.
 
Re: DPMS MK 12 thoughts?

Well there's the $50 difference, plus I have to build the lower for the High Caliber and have to have it shipped in...
 
Re: DPMS MK 12 thoughts?

Are you talking about the mini sass? All the reviews on it seem to be good. Im looking into this as well. I think Im going to try to find as much stuff used as possible and then use the dpms mini sass barrel to complete the upper.

Does a guy used to work at Crane; work at DPMS also? Pay the $50,you'll get your moneys worth.

Pay the extra 50$ and buy a lower and build it up, even if you have to save a little longer, itll be worth it.

Just thought that I would revive this to say that by the end of next week I should have my MK12 up and running. I went with the HC base model. I can't wait!

I just assembled the lower and it's sitting here all lonely...

My .02 is to get what you want the first time. You'll be happier in the end...BTW, i love the MK12. I have an RRA 24" Varmint and am trying to go the MK12/M4 route now..

The difference is more like 500 though.
