new DPMS .308, what stuff fits it?

[gandalf23]

Last weekend I got a DPMS .308 AR-10 ish rifle. The seller at the gunshow said it was the new Gen II version, but after getting home and looking at it, it is not. It's an LR-308. I had wanted the Gen II version since it accepts almost all AR15 accessories like stocks and triggers and handguards.

Oh well, I should have done more homework, and not just taken "some dude"'s word for it.

I have emailed DPMS, but have not received a reply, and I seem to remember a few people here have DPMS AR10s, so...

What handguards will fit on this rifle? Will a Magpul MOE handguard fit?

Will a surplus A2 fixed stock fit? Obviously I need to swap out the buffer tube, so I guess I should be asking, does a GI Buffer tube fit? And will the DPMS buffer fit in it? Will I need a new buffer since I'd be going from a collapsable stock to a fixed?

Thanks!

Aside from not knowing what will fit, I like it so far. Especially for $800 out the door. Need to find a scope for it, may use my SWFA 1-4x till I find something else.

Proof positive that on the internet it did not happen if there are no pictures.

Never messed with one so can't tell you from experience.

Pretty sure it's off the same machine as the Bushmasters ORC so everything should swap. I have one of the Bushy's and everything so far works.

Borrow some parts from buddies and test fit?
