That is about what I paid for mine a few years ago, good deal.

Not me, I missed them, but the flippers will easily double their money if these really were NOS sets and not NIW rights paired with banged up lefts like you usually see.
Was there a photo in the ad before they sold out? |
|

That's not the real thing. Those are the ones with the snap in heat shields.
At least that is what the picture is showing, who knows what they were actually selling. |

Listed as "A1 Triangle Handguards New Military Surplus New Old Stock Not Reproductions ** Fits Retro Builds Perfectly*"
Then I think it said something about being manufactured 20? years ago and are overruns from then. Not sure about that since I cannot see the original add and my invoice does not have that extra language. |

I’m still waiting on my c7 uppers from them . View Quote I was just told by our purchasing team that we will not get them in until the end of the week. To be honest, I'm not too sure when we will actually get those in. TJ M. CS Rep. |

I'd order nothing from DTT, shady/lying sons of bitches. Contact Shark Arms Customs, tell him Arfcom sent you. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/416992/rs_w-1614_h-807_cg-true-691262.jpg View Quote ETA: other than the uppers, I mean. |

So they are selling reproductions as real milsurp? View Quote My one and only order was advertised as "NOS Colt M4 stock kits". What I received NEVER was Colt anything. Cheap ass Chicrap, Amazon sells better quality junk kits. Their "Colt SOCOM over run bbls"- not Colt. Nitrided and 1-8 twist. 16" and "no markings other than twist rate ".....total sham. And to top it off, no CS telephone. It all goes through a third party hired answering service, likely in the same building. Just beware. Maybe 2 out of 10 report good experiences. |

It looks like several folks may have ordered based off it being here. That’s not cool at all if they get cheesy repops

Omega Manufacturing is the third name that they operate under. Couldn't remember earlier.

TNTE, AR15Sport, JSE Surplus, Fulton Armory and Luth AR seem to be selling the same reproduction A1 handguards as the ones pictured above (with the snap in heat shields). TNTE, Fulton Armory and Numrich are also selling carbine versions of these A1 handguards.
I kind of wonder how they compare to the Brownells reproduction A1 handguards. It appears that there are currently three makers of reproduction A1 handguards if you include the ones on the Colt reproduction A1 rifles. |

(Ordered 9/29)
They are all over it: (Today, 10/5) Hello Lexington, I am so sorry for the inconvenience. It looks like we will be receiving those within 5 business days and as soon as we receive them we will be shipping them out.

So, another one of those jokers who take your money and order the merchandise from somebody else.
"within 5 business days" is the classic response. |

Got my HG's today. They are reproductions not 20 year old surplus.
Im sorry I posted this now. I wouldnt mind seeing this company be banned from the site. |
|
Awww man. I’m sorry to hear that. I guess we should have known, since they previously advertised those C7 uppers as “US Military Contract Mfg.” Wait. What?

Have you given any thought to returning them, or is it too much of a PITA for what it's worth? I thought about canceling my order but I've been on the road and let it slip. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I'll keep them, but I will never do business with them ever again. The HG's are nice, but they aren't what I ordered, and I could have bought reproductions cheaper if I was looking for them. View Quote |

As far as reproductions go are they any good? Do you happen to have a set of the Brownells A1 handguards to compare them to? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I have written twice to cancel my order. Even their commitment to have them in 5 (more) business days has gone unfulfilled.
Tough noogies. I'm in the driver's seat. I feel a credit card challenge coming... EDIT: Order has been cancelled and a refund issued. |

Not AR related, but I ordered a slide for Glock 19, the machining is off enough that the characteristic gap between the slide (stainless steel) and the frame (plastic) you could read the newspapers thru the gap. On a factory assembly there is a small gap, this is 3 times that.
Their AR hand guards (railed type) are so very poor quality it's embarrassing to have on loaner or truck guns. |
