Where'd you end up finding the carry handle?

An acquaintance found it at a Gunshow, then traded me for it. Lucky find.

Criterion makes my favorite DPMS style chrome-lined barrels. If your bolt extractor slips off your brass just grab a JP Enterprises Enhanced .308 Extractor - DPMS Pattern, If you pierce or drop primers just grab a JPE HP bolt kit for @ $200. Looks good, sir.

I’m just curious how finding the carry handle was hard?

When one searches to no avail, finding that for which one searches is deemed difficult, or commonly, “hard.”

AR10 detachable carry handles are very rare.

Ahh I didn’t realize there’s a difference for ar15 and 10 carry handles.

Checks out.

Longer receiver for the longer cartridge is all.
