Description
The AR-10 Assault rifle, 7.62x51 NATO.As battle rifles go, probably the most misunderstood of them all is the AR-10. It almost beat the M-14 in replacing the M1 Garand, and its design was actually copied for the AR-15. Made by Armalite in 1956, when the company was owned by Fairchild Aviation and Eugene Stoner worked there, the Armalite AR-10 has a long and storied history. Fidel Castro even bought some. Today’s AR-10, brought back to life by Armalite Inc., is a more mature rifle than the guns of the ‘50s and ‘60s.
Even though the AR-10 was Eugene Stoner’s original design for a battle rifle and pre-dated the AR-15, today we think of it as a version of the AR-15 beefed up for the 7.62×51 NATO cartridge (.308 Winchester). There are now a number of other .308 versions of the AR-15 out there, but there is only one AR-10 based on the original AR-10 design and it is still made by Armalite.

Alrighty, guys. This is probably my last PMG creation for a while, as I've got some serious case of creativity-clog. I'll try to make something in a couple of days, we'll see how it goes, anyways.

Sorry bro, but there are a few things wrong with this:
1) The mag is still a 5.56, and not the famous waffle pattern
2) The grip isn't correct. The real one has this odd shape unlike any modern pistol grips.
3) The handguard is too long
4) The receiver is too bumpy the AR10's was flat.
5) The AR10 didn't have a forward assist
6) the shape of the charging handle and carry handle are too modern.
7) The AR10's flash hider has closed at the end, and looked nothing like the G36 one that you have attached.
8) The front sight is too beefy, the AR10's was a more thin style.
I'm sure I missed some nitpicky details, so here's a picture of a real, original AR10. ([link] )

Even though there are some faults and whatnot, you clearly see what it's supposed to be; an AR-10!
It's very hard to make an EXACT copy of a weapon not featured in PMG, not to mention time consuming, so you'll just have to accept some imperfections.
In my opinion, this is a great PMG AR-10!

It's good for a beginner. That's an inventive use of the M14 pieces for the handguard. I know it can be difficult, I used to do PMG actively for quite awhile. I found it unfulfilling, so I quit. I just ran out of ideas...

I did my best with the time I had. Next time I'll try to slow down and focus.

I concur on the Mag...But this picture seems to back up some of the other features on this illustration Sir.

Even with your picture, besides the mag, the receiver, front sight, pistol grip, and charging handle are still wrong.

Most of the criticism is correct, I rushed through this one off of memory purely. I'll try making it better than what it is now, but only time will tell.
