A couple of weeks ago I gave an honest review of this rifle I bought a couple of years ago on their website. I guess because it was too harsh of a genuine review they decided not to post it. Consumers are being lied to about the DPMS Sportical 5.56/2.23 modern rifle. The gun comes with no sights, no attachment to install sling, and the gas chamber leaks turning this semi automatic into a bolt action rifle. This gun is garbage stay away from it. Pay the extra hundred and get a Bushmaster or Mossberg.

@raugutcon: I wish admissions would've told me these issues before I spent five hundred dollars on this gun. That's why it's important.

It's the Off Topic Discussion board so users are allowed to post about pretty much anything. Also the point of reviewing items is so that other consumers can make informed decisions. Not posting a review, no matter how positive or negative it is, certainly defeats the purpose.

@gcfreak898 did you contact the company to find out why they didn't post your review?

@gcfreak898: Sell the gun and buy something better. Pawn Shops would be a good start.

I'm just getting it fixed. If I have another issue with it I'll sell it.

Other complaints aside, the Sportical is DPMS's stripped, base AR. If you wanted a rifle that comes with sights or a front sling mount you should have bought a rifle with sights or a front sling mount. Do your research before buying next time.

Maybe if someone left an informative review he could have ;) xD

@goodzorr: what kind of dumbass discovers two years later his gun has no sights mounts ? Never mind, there's at least one.....maybe he missed that CONTACT US link in the page.
