PSA has complete AR-10’s for $599 shipped according to MrG&G on FB.. Pretty cheap way to get in to that platform..
I really hate to do what I am about to do, because it will be very painful for you.

Couple hundred in mods, and it'll prolly be pretty good.

Solid rifle for the money. Dad has that same one and it’s been great for 3 years.

It has some different size parts than say dpms pattern Surely someone makes a hand gaurd that replaces the 2 piece plastic. And I would think the barrel O.D. is .750", for an adjustable gad block, no?

If you have something that retains the current barrel nut it’s fine, but if you get a hand guard that has a different barrel nut it may not fit. Also have seen some people say non psa barrel could have issues

Mods I was talking about are; hand guard, gas block, trigger spring kit. Someone might want to cut it down to 16", thread and crown. Bout it.

Dad bought his handguard from a gun show, the vendor had 10 or 12 that would fit it. .750 for the gas block, 5/8x24 thread, everything else is basic AR15 parts.

DPMS (LR-308) free float handguard, the Armalite style will not work. Same for barrels and upper and lower receivers.

My understanding was that the PSA uppers will not fit on a AR-10 or LR308 lower.
It is far more important to be able to hit the target than it is to haggle over who makes a weapon or who pulls a trigger.
