I am looking at which ar to buy for hunting and home defense. Ok an ar for home defense and hunting is alittle over kill, but I want a hog/deer gun for florida, and want an AR so there you go.

I have been looking at the dpms 308s, the issue is the lr308 and lr308b are booth smooth side guns and I want the ejection assist or what ever they call it.

My issue with the lr308l is it is set up for a scope setup and does not have the front sight or the front sight rail setup. When out of hunting season I want to pull the scope and set a of flip up sights, kind of hard to do that without the front sight rail.

Not worried about the front hand guard as it will be pulled off and a quad rail installed for a bipod and/or vertical grip.

The only option I see besides upgrading the lower is to go with the bushmaster 308 orc, but kind of wanted to go dpms but have no issue with bushmaster.
