We build our 308 M5 platform to the AR308 pattern, with a DPMS High Profile (.210) Tang rail and 1-7/16 x 16 TPI. Please note that our .308 products are machined to AR .308 specs, which is similar but not the same as DPMS Gen 1. Unfortunately, because there is no set standard, we are unable to guarantee compatibility with any other manufacturer’s products within this platform.

The Aero Precision M5 24in 6.5 Creedmoor SS Complete Upper Receiver is not compatible with Gen 2 DPMS lower receivers. I would recommend using a Gen 1 or matching M5 lower receiver.

I recommend the Aero Precision AR10 bolts listed at the link below. These should work just fine with the Aero Precision M5 24in 6.5 Creedmoor SS Complete Upper Receiver w/ ATLAS S-ONE Handguard.
