It came completely MIL spec. The only thing I've changed was to put a Nickel Boron BCG from Palmetto State - $200.
Just a thought.
Another thought...Cabelas routinely sells the Mosin Nagants for around $125. You will be hard pressed to find a better long range rifle cheaper than that (with the exception of the SKS).

Snoots turn their nose up at DPMS, but their bull barrels are amazing. My father has a 24" .308 that shoots 1/2" MOA, and I have a 16" 5.56 that shoots 1/2", and when the day is right it's a 2" gun at 500. Built for under $500.
Their triggers, on the other hand, are complete shit.
