Re: need info on SASS DPMS
If anyone tried to take mine they'd have to fight me for it.
You do know that you've opened the can?
Only reliability issue I've had were feed issues but they were due to the magazines. Since I bent the feed lips I haven't had a single failure in over 1K rounds. I'd go so far as to say that of all my rifles my SASS is the easiest of them all to get consistent accuracy from. Machining, fit/finish are as good as anything else IMO. It's hard to find a better bang for the buck.

Re: need info on SASS DPMS
I'm not a fan of DPMS by any means. However, my local DPMS LE dealer has sold a couple LRT-SASS rifles to some agencies, and they have reported back to be getting around 0.5 MOA on the best groups. Not too shabby at all.
Haven't heard anything about reliability. Hopefully DPMS has done better with their LR308 quality control than they have with their AR15 parts.

I have a rifle with a dpms sass upper. Other than DPMS not cutting the feedramps right it shoots fine. Very accurate. Only real downside is that it is a fat pig.

Re: need info on SASS DPMS
They are very accurate, expensive, but reliable.DPMS quality at times may be a little off but it's overall a nice rifle.They are NOT light....
I built an "improved" version of that gun with a DPMS upper and lower I bought a few years ago, I have no regrets.

Re: need info on SASS DPMS
They are a bit heavy, but it makes the recoil even less.

I am surprised the "Use The Search Engine!" Jihadists haven't pounced on this thread.

Re: need info on SASS DPMS
I have a DPMS LR.308B, and I am shooting .75 MOA. regularly. I had an airforce PJ friend who he was shooting the same. It is a heavy, but managable weight. reliability has not been a factor with my rifle.

Re: need info on SASS DPMS
I have not fired that rifle. I have fired other DPMS models and they were accurate. I know of two individuals who own and have fired the SASS and they reported that it was accurate and really liked it.
It is not the cheapest weapon, but it is far from being the most expensive. I believe it only has a 16 match barrel and it gets better accuracy than many longer barreled guns. Probably a good value for the money is my opinion.

Re: need info on SASS DPMS
All of my reliability problems stemmed from the factory mags, I switched to PMAG and have never had an issue since. Rifle is heavy but mine hasnt caused me any issues.

Re: need info on SASS DPMS
Mine shoots like ASM's does now that I have done enough load development for it. Been thinking of selling it but probably won't, it's just too damned cool.
