King of the Jungle is the only 100% in house U.S.A. manufactured. They never outsource contractor parts for their barrels, upper receivers, lower receivers, fore grips, magazines, lower trigger groups, bolt carriers, locking bolts, recoil buffer tubes, and internal machined parts. The only Armalite’s outsourced stock accessory is the Magpul PRS for the SuperSASS. Armalite’s quality control and customer service is second to none founded by Eugene Stoner’s standards.
Armalite sponsors major long range events and mutable shooting teams, individuals, and the highest numbers of name brand AR platform rifles in competitive long range shooting sports.

To improve function, the ArmaLite AR-10B employs far fewer parts from the AR15/M16 rifles than the SR25 and DPMS 308 AR15 pattern design.
Actually, few parts in the AR10 are identical to AR15 parts compared to SR25 and DPMS 308. It's surprising and one would think that more would be used, but the AR10 were massively engineered and the designers didn't make compromises to use existing parts. The logistics just weren't worth the disadvantages we'd have accepted.”

DPMS 308 is a fine hunting rifle and competitive platform regardless the lack of long range competitive records compared to King of the Jungle, but then again DPMS does not put forth the efforts towards long range competition in comparison. DPMS sponsors no events, one competitive 3gun shooter and a lot of cage fighters for whatever reason.
