No they are ok if you buy on simply price; DPMS are not mil-spec (not refereeing to FA) I am not a hater just pointing out some items I have noticed.
Barrels are generally not chrome lined
Barrels are not MPI inspected
Bolt & carriers are not MPI inspected
Receivers will not fit all mags! (saw a pos dpms that a tango down mag wouldn’t fit)
Carrier interior not chrome lined
Bolt & carriers are not MPI inspected
Gas key screws not staked and improper hardness
Rifles with the M4 stock have a commercial spec tube and are not staked properly
The fit between the upper & lower are pretty lose on the rifles I have handled and worked on, overall there QC is a little week, I have also seen Olympic and Bushmaster with most of the same issues.
