Does anyone have any info/ specs on this model? I was waiting on a S&W performance center M&P 15 with a 20" SS barrel and two stage trigger. It is still not available and they want to substitute the Predator. I can't find anything about it online. Thanks for any assistance.
 
Curious

I have recently acquired a DPMS 24 inch, stainless steel, fluted barrel upper in 204. I am curious to see what you guys think of the type of firearm he is asking about. Will be very similar to what I have. Trying to decide whether or not to get a dedicated lower for this and what kind of scope to put on it.
 
I wasn't able to find a Predator model on the DPMS site. After speaking to the dealer I found that it is a 20" heavy fluted barrel chambered in 556 with a Magpul pistol grip and stock.
 
Be sure the barrel twist matches the ammo you will use. And, some Magpul products are basic, some are feature-rich, so knowing EXACTLY what Magpul grip and stock would be good. Since all DPMS rifles are built-to-order, only the dealer knows exactly what is on it.
 
Is the dealer going to charge you the same for the DPMS as the S&W PC rifle, or less than the S&W. If less, how much less?

DPMS makes a good .308 platform AR. Their 5.56 / .223 sized rifles leave quite a bit lacking compared to similarly priced competitors' rifles.
