[QUOTE="tim_w, post: 1346581, member: 11132"] I know this is an older thread but it could cause people to make a wrong purchase so I thought I should correct it or at least bring what I believe is an error. I maybe wrong guys but I don't think so... The Aero PREcision 308 upper and lowers which they call their M5 series are built on the DPMS internal spec pattern and NOT the Armalite spec. So from what I know of Aero Precison they ARE DPMS compatible and not Armalite. Also CMMG lower parts do not always fit DPMS lower compatible parts so be careful on that one. But understand while they are internal meaning them use all dpms spec internal parts the outside is their own properitary design so while hey may match up and function they will not look good if you mix and match upper and lowers from different companies. When it comes to the AR-10 world its shoudl be a rule to alwasy get matched sets or from the same company and model run that will ensure the best upper lower fitment OK I just double checked the site and as I recall it stated DPMS compatible [URL]https://aeroprecisionusa.com/m5e1-enhanced-upper-receiver.html[/URL] under specifications clearly states the following: For the upper: Feature: .2795 takedown pin holes (DPMS size) Compatibility: Accepts standard DPMS .308 components [URL]https://aeroprecisionusa.com/m5-308-stripped-lower-receiver.html[/URL] For lower: Feature: Works with standard DPMS 308 components and magazines [/QUOTE]
