A friend of mine just bought an Armalite AR-10 carbine. He'd like to add some things to it, so he came to me for my opinion. I know next to nothing about AR-10's, just a little that I read here the past day or so. So, here are a few questions:
-Can standard AR15 tools, such as a barrel wrench & moaks, be used on an AR10 or are different tools required altogether?
-What rails can be installed on an Armalite? I read here that not all of them are compatible with Armalite, due perhaps to threading differences.
-What optic would you all choose as the best general purpose optic for an AR10 carbine? He wants either an EoTech, Aimpoint, or ACOG, but was also looking at a Leupold. The EoTech was supposed to be drop compensated for a 308. I think it was a model 552.
Anyway, any thoughts or suggestions you have would be appreciated.
Thanks,
