I've used a couple Del Ton uppers and some parts, they were all fine, the uppers were all in spec and had T marks. If your going for a budget build with a couple of after market parts it's a real good start. Make sure your careful to comply with state law though, as that upper is NOT legal to assemble into a rife in MA without having the bayo lug removed, and the flash hider replaced with a comp / break and permanently attached.

Palmetto state armory has some quality kits at nice prices. Some members have issues with PSAs policies but they're an option to consider.

Many of the kits are out-of-stock but they come back regularly

Not if it's a flash hider, which it looks like it is. You'd have to get a compensator or thread protector pinned/welded.

has Lou done any pin/weld's on any brakes on here?..

 

[JCV]

yup he did mine. i was quoted a week had it back in a few days. i can't remember what it cost though.

Also, if your using a non pre ban lower you will also either have to use a fixed stock, or have your collapsable stock permanently blind pinned so that it is a fixed stock.

There are other options for permanently attaching a break, silver solder may be easier for you if you lack the tools to pin and weld and have trouble finding someone to do it for you.
