Will a Larue 308 handguard fit a DPMS style upper?

Getting conflicting stories.

Thanks for the help.

Barrel nut threads are different between the Armalite rifles and the DPMS rifles. Verify with Larue themselves what their handguards will fit before ordering. http://stores.homestead.com/Laruetactical/Page.bok?template=about

I asked LaRue 2 years ago before I bought my DD Lite 12.0 rail for my LR308. LaRue told me no but I've seen guys with the LaRue rail on their DPMS ARs all the time. It's best to contact LaRue. Ask for Alfred.

My mistake.
It's Daniel Defence that has either the DPMS or Armalite barrel nut.

Sorry

Larue at one time DID make a rail for the DPMS style ( I have one)but no longer does.Try asking Wes at MSTN if he has anymore..

Even if you find one of the Larue DPMS LR-308 rails floating around...it won't work well with the new, higher LR-308 receiver rail.

Daniel Defense is the way to go for a railed handguard of similar "type" to the Larue unit. DD has 7", 9" and 12" railed handguards that are made for the DPMS platform.
