The upper is a DPMS A1. I have changed the upper receiver since with DPMS A3. I like the A3 a lot more!!! I love the classic A1, but if you want decent optics are more choices with iron sights A3 is the only way to go, plus I sold the A1 for more than I payed for the A3. The new A3 does not have a FA or a trap door so it has a much cleaner and smoother look. It makes sense because I never use the FA or the trap door.


The lighting is some really really old stuff that my dad has had for 20 years, he is a pro photographer. We switched out the back lights with the front lights to give it that effect and the camera was a Nikon F4 digital that we are both still getting to know.

I am a lot more comfortable with 35mm and a lot better with it too. I can control everything exactly how I want it with my Nikon F3 and F4 in 35mm, but digital is whole new animal that is a lot harder in may ways. I still don't think that it is as sharp and precise and 35mm, but I understand the appeal. My father the photographer has A LOT of cameras in so many formats and they were pricey, the Nikon he bought was over 5 grand and that was the entry model. When it comes to the high end digitals, you better be a pro or have a lot of spare time because I am learning something new everyday with the Nikon and I have been semi-pro for over ten years. I sit down and talk to my dad about it and the business has changed there is no longer any need for the old school pros like my dad who has been a pro for over 35 years.

Here is a DPMS I put together. It shoots under 1'' at 100 yards.

One for you and two for each of your friends... before you get captured. Or else you "Keep your weed in there."

Honestly, I have no idea. I'd rather stick some matches or some water purification tablets up in there, but it sure looks pretty neat.

BROTHERS! Just put this rig together.

Though it may be difficult to admit, the fact remains... none of y'all are worthy of my greatness.

Your sarcasm has been duly noted. TFL is such an awesome message forum. I wonder where the Original Poster Deseart Heat is, to defend all these accusations of fakery.
