In this article, we will explore the main differences and compatibilities of AR-15 and AR-10 rifles, which of their parts are different and which are the same, and what you can buy for both rifles to save a buck.

First, a little history. The ArmaLite AR-10 is a 7.62×51mm NATO battle rifle designed by Eugene Stoner in the late 1950s and manufactured by ArmaLite. It failed completely. Armalite didn't win the military contract, but got the notes that they wanted a more compact version, Stoner went back to work with a redesign resulting in the AR15, chambered in 5.56mm NATO, being released the very next year. 

This setback caused the...

There are several manufacturers of 308 caliber AR-family rifles now. Most of them will interchange with one system or another, but it can be tough to keep track of which one is which. While many components are the same, for instance, your 308 standard lower parts kits, the design of DPMS style upper and lower can vary greatly.

Still, the biggest question that I get, is what type of receiver one has. Let's look at the differences between DPMS style 308 uppers.

One simple very generic distinction is that the older, "high profile," upper will have the forward assist all the way at the end. The new, "low profile," resembles an AR-15 slicker design, the forward will be somewhat towards the middle.

The older, "high profile" design will remind you of the bulkier, rectangular build vs. the low profile is slicker, thinner and smoother.

Finally, the pane. The new "low profile " upper receiver has a 1/8" wide top portion where the charging handle is installed while the...

Of all the parts of an AR15, the one part that is not standardized is the buttstock buffer tube.

At first you would think the difference is just the diameter of the tube itself but that's just the first thing give folks trouble when matching up the different tubes and butt stocks.

The commercial tube is 1.17" diameter and the mil. spec. is 1.14" diameter. So even though a "commercial" buttstock will fit on a mil.spec tube, it will be loose and I guess you could even force fit a mil. spec. buttstock onto commercial tube, I wouldn't if I were you.
