That list does not list .308, which is shocking to say the least. I can imagine that he is fond of .308 due to the fact that he doesn't like .223/5.56 like myself. Is it safe to say that you are looking for an AR-10 OP? I personally prefer a .308 in an AR platform.

The metric equivalent to a .308 is 7.62x51, and yes, I know there is a difference between the two. (To you detail sticklers! :rules: )
Quite simply, you cannot use .308 in an AR-15; the magwell isn't long enough. An AR pattern rifle in .308 is an AR-10, which is why it isn't in a list of AR-15 calibers.
I did not notice it was only list ar-15 calibers, but may I remind you that I did not say .308 can fit in an AR-15. A "platform" is a generic term that I use. I only mentioned a .308 chambered AR-10, not all AR styled rifles are the same.

Txdeerhunter, you never did further specify what caliber you were interested in trading for.

*Note: I CAN READ, insulting others does not help to sell guns. I'll head out now. :???:
