I've seen reviews on them saying their the best thing in the world for AR's.

If I remember right nothing like this is available for AR10's though (I was looking for something that'd fit DPMS).

Tom, are you having some sort of issue that would have you wanting to do that?  I believe it would be better just to get a rifle that was built with that in mind.

I have never seen one for an AR-10, nor have I see one for the DPMS/KAC version.  I suppose you could call it an FAL.. :)

I like the ergonomics and take down of the AR. I don't care for the gas system or .223/5.56 , it may be OK for home defense but the .308 is more versatile in my opinion.
