First AR, Del-Ton Rifle Kit

[bamthetrashman]

Hi All,

This is my first AR. I got the Del-Ton Midlength rifle kit and put it on a RRA lower. I was suprised how easy the lower went together, well, except for the pivot pin, I had some trouble with that one.

I think the Del-Ton looks good on the RRA lower. I haven't shot it yet, so I don't know how well it will function or how accurate it is, but so far I am pretty pleased with Del-Ton.

Planning on picking up a detachable carry handle and some ammo at the 1500 in a few weeks. Anyone know of a good table to get these items at?

I know..



but I can't figure out how to post pics on here. I tried the link in the Forum Rules section, but the link does not go anywhere. Any help would be appreciated.

That looks a lot like the 16" Middy I built a few years ago. I was really pleased with the Del-Ton upper and LPK. My rifle shoots very well, and I'm sure your's will be the same.

Looks great!!

Looks like you need a rear sight. Maybe I can help you with that?

Looks really nice. Del-Ton customer service is top notch.

Yeah I like del ton I ordered a trigger kit from there and had it 3 days later during the holidays.

Tha'ts how my last build started out. it ended up a bit modified.... i was very happy with the customer service from Del Ton as well as the rifle itself. With Hornady TAP ammo, it was shooting 3/4" @ 100 yards for me. Pretty darned good for a budget built 16" gun!

Also, when mine was new, I put about 700 rounds of Wolf steel cased ammo as well as some other brass cased stuff, probably near a thousand rounds before giving it a cleaning and it ran fine from brand new. I'm sure you'll be happy with it!

How long was the turnaround time on your order? I'm ready to build one and have been very interested in Del-Ton. Thanks!

Cam,

It took about 5 - 6 business days. It was really quick. So far I have been very pleased with the rifle kit and Del-Ton. Plan on taking it out tomorrow, will post on here how it goes.

Del ton is the best bang for your buck. Every black Friday they give 15 percent off. Cant be beat!

I've got a Del-Ton 20" heavy barrel that I really like. These folks are a first class operation. I'm sure you'll enjoy your new build.
