If DPMS made an AR in Camo, I would go that route for sure, but remington and bushmaster are the only ones who do.

the funny thing that almost no one knows is that there are only a couple
manufactures of actual AR/M16/M4 parts. in todays market it is far too expensive to manufacture your own parts than to have someone else do it for you. DPMS doesn't even make all their parts. basically most products
in the AR line have someone else's name on them. Colt, Lewis Machine & Tool, and Oly Arms supply most ALL uppers and lowers. Most AR barrels
are made by either Wilson Tactical or Mossberg.

If you do not stand behind our troops...please stand in front of them....
