I like my DPMS, I haven't shot a lot of rounds through it but I'm a .308 fan. Decide what you want to do with it, if you want to pick it up and blast away go for the AR platform if you want to shoot long range go for a M14/M1A1 style. Keep this in mind DPMS mags can be expensive make sure you have a aftermarket source to purchase them. I also have a Indian made Enfield chambered in .308. It's a bolt action and looks just like a .303 British Enfield and it'll hurt your shoulder if you're not careful.
Happy shooting.

Didn't know that...pa is strict with legal carry in the car....oh is similar what what I have ready to pa but not quite as strict(just moved to oh ) In,PA without permit the gun and ammo have to be in separate compartments ie gun in car in case or visable ammo in trunk so it is,not easily accessible.

but I think it should be in a case in the glove box that can be readily seen when asked. Should not be hidden under your seat as this would require a conceal weapon permit. Ammo should be in separate compartment.
Which I find absurd.

yeah, your right.
if u have ur ccw license its easier because it just has to be out of sight/concealed.

if u don't have ur ccw license it has to be in something that closes or seals..
like a glove box or center consul with a lid.

But in either case it can be loaded with mag in and one in the chamber. perfectly legal

Here in cali that's illegal for ccw holders. Yep, found that crap out in my class. My friend (none-ccw, and unloaded) has this in his jeep. Depending on vehicle you plan to use I'm sure you can find something similar:

honestly if u don't find anything to buy there all right the glovebox fits all that criteria and that's what I use now for g26 and it sits in a remora rubber holster on top of the owners manual.
it never moves, very snug.
them my XDs sits in a holster in the rear cubby.

also if u wanted u can get a pocket pistol an fabricate something for the dash if u don't have the nav package in there

I'm not familiar with the CCW laws in CA. I took IL/UT/AZ/FL CCW. All of those deem your car a safe haven. You can conceal in your car but have to lock it up when in the parking lot of a restricted carry area.

Thanks for the link. I saw some of those drawers for the jeeps. But I haven't been able to find anything like that for my vehicle. The darn GPS unit is under the drivers seat anyhow. Might have to find something that attaches inside the door pocket, console storage or glove box I guess. Or just a holster for the glove box since that locks.

I would just use my glovebox. Wish I could haha. I bought a clam shell with a cable lock. That's okay... cause its not mounted... just tied to my car

glove box seems to be a good option unless I make something custom for the center console. I'd still like to find a holster for it in the glove box. Prefferably attached so it doesn't bounce around int there.
