Just got it in on April 23. I couldn't be happier!! A+++ I took it out that evening and ran 200 rounds without a problem and it was spot on right out of the box. Looks and feels great! When I go to buy another I will def buy another diamondback db15. You can't beat this value.

Ok deal I suppose, but expect to do some work. My front sight was severely canted to the left, due to bad alignment of front sight mounting pin holes on the underside of the barrel. I have had to monkey around with it a lot, including buying an AR wrench and vise block which I otherwise would not have needed if it wasn't for this rifle's inadequate build quality. I can't believe Diamondback's armorer let a rifle leave the shop like this. What do you expect, though, at this price? Put about 60 rounds through it this weekend, and it will often not blow back the BCG enough to strip another round from the mag, resulting in a dry fire and you having to re-cock the rifle. Would I trust my life to this rifle? Hell no! But the Magpul furniture kit sure is cool-lookin'! It does come with a nice padded case, which is a plus. The lower seems pretty decent, but its pretty hard to mess up an AR lower. Trigger is pretty darn stiff, but breaks clean. Upper seems pretty well built. My suggestion is to buy this if you want a project gun at a pretty cheap base price, and then fix all the inadequacies yourself by swapping parts and upgrading. Might be worth spending a few hundred more if this is your first AR to get something that will be perfect right out of the box, and won't require work. And that's my 2 cents.

Great rifle for the price! I have put well over 200 rounds through mine at the range with absolutely no issues (I have shot wolf gold .223 55grain and Colt .223 62grain). The magpul hand guard allows for many options and you can buy a rail for it for under $10. Overall the rifle quality is great, I did noticed that the rifle bluing was scratched a tiny bit when I received the rifle but nothing bad. I would defiantly suggest this rifle for anyone in the AR15 market, if you are looking at the Smith and Wesson sport rifle this is a great alternative.

After years of carrying an M-4 with the Navy, I committed to purchasing my very own Ar and when it came to ordering this said weapon, I looked no further than Buds. I went with the DB-15 which came with green tiger stripe MAGPUL furniture. First, lets talk about the purchase method. I found it hard to commit myself to throwing a chunk of money down on a weapon so I went with the 180 days to pay and it was the most glorious experience. Second, the rifle shipped Monday morning and I had it in hand by early Wednesday afternoon from my FFL. The rifle shipped in a well constructed and heavily padded hard case with Diamondback stamped across the front. Upon opening the case, the first thing I noticed was the excess amount of grease which was a wonderful thing. I broke the weapon down and all internal parts were well oiled. I immediately took this rifle to the range and she cycled all round without a hitch. I will be purchasing another Diamondback through Buds. You guys rock.
