New for DPMS for 2011 is the Panther REPR1 (or Rapid Engagement Precision Rifle) chambered in .308 Win. 7.62mm NATO.
This AR-10 style carbine is capable of sub-MOA accuracy from its 18″ barrel. The quad-rail handguard has had all excess metal cut away, almost skeletonized, to decrease weight. The rifle weighs a full two pounds less than the DPMS SASS.
