    DPMS Lo Pro Flat Top "Slickside" 16" Bull Barrel??

    Does anyone have any opinions on these slickside DPMS bull barrel uppers? I've heard from many sources that they are very accurate, but I've never owned a slickside and want to know if there would be any potential problems. For $400 bucks I figured why not try it!
