Original "Hollywood Humpback" ArmaLite AR-10 prototype - 7.62x51mm NATO. This is the fourth-type prototype; the earliest ones showed a much more rough design.

The ArmaLite AR-10 is the .308 predecessor of the AR-15. The original AR-10 design (modified and manufactured by the Dutch company Artillerie Inrichtingen) saw limited military use in several countries and a very small number of civilian sales.

Rifles based on the DPMS rifle series are commonly categorized as "AR-10"s, but are actually scaled up versions of the AR-15 which retain its advancements and lack parts compatibility.

The ArmaLite AR-10 and variants can be seen in the following films, television series, video games, and anime used by the following actors:

ArmaLite AR-10, "Portuguese" model - 7.62x51mm NATO

The original version of the AR-10 was designed by Eugene Stoner and manufactured by ArmaLite (then a division of the Fairchild Aircraft Corporation) in 1956. Only four rifles were completed when it was submitted in the competition which aimed to replace the M1 Garand (which was eventually won by the M14). After this an additional 50 or so rifles were built at ArmaLite's Hollywood workshop (which are today referred to as "Hollywood Humpbacks" due to their manufacturing location and the shape of the carry handle) and given to traveling salesmen in order to pitch their new rifle to various countries.

In 1957 ArmaLite awarded a five-year contract to the Dutch company Artillerie Inrichtingen (A.I.), who produced all subsequent examples of the 10,000 or so original AR-10s which were manufactured. There were three primary variants, being the "Sudanese", the "Transitional" and the "Portuguese". There were numerous other variants such as carbine or sniper weapons along with smaller contract weapons such as the "Guatemalan" which is similar to the "Sudanese" but with a perforated barrel shroud. All military variants of the rifle feature a shroud pinned to the forward section of the barrel, to which is welded differing bayonet lugs or grenade launching rings which varies with the variant. Civilian "Sporter" models were also produced which lack this shroud giving them the appearance of having a slimmer barrel, even though the actual barrel is the same.

ArmaLite Inc. AR-10 Models

In the mid-90s, Eagle Arms purchased the ArmaLite company name and trademarks and started production on a series of semi-automatic only weapons called the ArmaLite AR-10B. These rifles bear little mechanical resemblance to the original AR-10 rifles and are in actuality a scaled up version of the Colt AR-15A2. Due to the fact that these weapons were manufactured during the Assault Weapons Ban new high capacity magazines could not be manufactured, so ArmaLite chose to use modified versions of already existing M14 magazines (the only alternative at the time were magazines for the Knight's Armament SR-25 which were in short supply to civilians at the time).

After the Assault Weapons Ban expired and new magazines could be manufactured, ArmaLite introduced the AR-10A series which used the original ArmaLite pattern magazines, which is the standard that Knights chose for their SR-25 series and has since become the de-facto standard for 7.62x51mm AR rifles.

-The AR-10 is the .308 variant of the AR-15, the civilian model of the [[M16 rifle series|M16]]. It uses a 5, 10, or 20-round box magazine and fires in semi-automatic operation (with the exception of the first prototype). The gun is rarely used in movies, though in ''[[Fight Club]]'', [[Edward Norton]] says he will bring an Armalite AR-10 gas-operated semi-automatic rifle into work to threaten his boss. The gun is a well known target rifle and hunting rifle.

-The original Eugene Stoner prototype model of the AR-10. This model was built before the original M16 models based on using the 7.62x51mm NATO rounds used in the M14 rifle of that time. Unlike the AR-15 and later AR-10 models, this model is fully-automatic. It was used as an all purpose weapon able to be carried as an infantry rifle, a belt fed machine gun, a sniper rifle, or a grenade launcher. It is most easily identified by its top mounted charging handle under the carry handle. Later models would incorporate the M16 type charging handle.
