First of all, is the DB-15 a popular beginners rifle? Is it a durable gun? Can it last for awhile? Is it modular? Can you add and remove on it? Can it sell fast? Whats the turn around on it? Do most people turn away from Diamondback because of its poor performance 9mm? or? Last,Would you buy a DB-15 or go with another cheap AR variant?
Thank you

Not sure I'd want a rifle called a "DB".

A friend of mine has a Diamondback AR-15. As far as I know it is like nearly everything else, mil-spec parts, etc. He had a problem with it not cycling properly after a few dozen rounds. I looked it over for him and found that the gas rings on the bolt had worn out. I don't blame that on any brand as I had one that did the same thing after less than a hundred rounds and I built it with a quality LPK. They are a wear part, some last longer than others. Proper lubrication solves a lot of problems with ARs. I haven't shot his rifle but for a budget AR, I think it is fine.

People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf
