del-ton rifle kits

[86k10]

i ordered a del-ton 16" car kit today for my dpms lower. the kit was only $485 shipped. i have a couple of questions. i have had read reviews on del-ton and they were good.

1. has any one had any experience with del-ton?
2. i didnt order the m4 feed ramps for $25. its not to late the delivery time is 8-16 weeks. but what is your experience with m4 feed ramps and uppers without feed ramps?

i had a dpms classic 16" and do not remember if they had m4 feed ramps. any help would be great. thanks

I have 2 of them. super accurate...ask the 4 prairie dogs I got with 4 shots of my reloads at 250 yards

Very good quality. you won't be dissappointed and they have about the best customer service of anybody out there.

Was gonna say, they are one of the best companies you can deal with...AND you wont get gouged regardless of what other companies are doing. Some of the best BEST prices for uppers and lowers as well as kits. Here is a pic of my delton upper kit with a spikes tactical lower.

Like others stated... Del-Ton.. good stuff... Great guys.
M4 feed ramps are designed to improve reliable feeding in full auto operation... not necessary in semi-auto rifle. Some of the "Mil-Spec" only guys have to have them because anything not "Mil-Spec" is junk. But don't believe the hype.

Quick couple general questions (not necessarily related to del-ton):

I noticed the rifle in the previous pic, the handguards look really short, is that a CAR kit or M4 kit (i thought the gas block on CAR's were longer than M4's)?

Secondly, does a "standard A2 front sight" interfere with potential optics? Again, after looking at the previous pic, it would appear that is an OK option, or would a flip up be better?

Thanks in advance,
Tim

its an m4 in the pic.....as for the site..they are in the sight picture but do not bother me...if you thought they might bother you, you might be better paying the little bit extra for the flip up front site
