I've had a request for a sticky topic to post pics of your DSC/J&T Distributing builds. Once I get back in the shop and get a chance I'll post some pics of some of my better builds.

Here's one that my buddy built....he decided he didn't like AR's....so I bought it off him....This is excellent carbine--I love it. It's the EM4 kit...chrome-lined and a hogue grip. I have NO reservations of purchasing further kits...and recomending them to anyone looking to build an AR platform. Infact, my nieghbor and his son are having me build them AR's they will both be built using J&T kits...

Here is some I built. A few more to come very soon...
 16" AR with a Shaw barrel. Also with a Double Star Lower from J&T.  1911 frame from Double Star Corp. ALl parts fit much better than the Caspian and SA frame I have tried.   |

I have built two J&T kits so far, and have helped my best friend and brother-in-law build theirs this past week!
 Top is my daughter's M4gery and the bottom was my first J&T, a 20" A3.  The Phantom on the M4 was installed by J&T, and the entire rifle looks GREAT! I absolutely adore these AR's, and they went together within 40 minutes. With the directions available here on ARFCOM, it was super-easy, and the parts are all beautiful quality! I've fired it many times with no malfunctions. I look forward to many more J&T kits in the future! NOBAN Update. I had the compensator removed on my A3 and had a standard A2 FH put on in its place. My barrel is now threaded, and with the exception of a bayo mount (will probably get that done later this year), it's as evil as an A3 can get and still look "stock." www.burnerblog.com/images/noban11.jpg |

Jesse,
Thank you so much for all your help and personal attention in getting me exactly what I wanted for my wife. Outstanding service and the kit is awesome, sorry the pics are crap. 14.5" lightweight chrome lined w/Phantom on an A1 Upper w/ A2 sight apperture Here it is as built (First Timer - took approx. 30-45 minutes) from the kit (Except no HG-4 HG's): http://www.geocities.com/nightstalker6_sd/jandtbuild.jpg And here it is as it will actually be used: http://www.geocities.com/nightstalker6_sd/asis.jpg Talk about light (about 5lbs. maybe?), fast and balancing well! The Cav-Arms lower has a J&T Parts kit in it BTW. Thank You! NS6 |

Redbone,
Thanks man, I put a lot of thought into my wife's rifle and now am finding I like it better than my rifle.  To answer your question, it's a 16" chrome lined lightweight kit ($499.95) with a Phantom upgrade (+$20) that's been shortened to 14.5" , threaded, and permanently attached by J&T($60). (Make sure you tell them to use an A2 Apperture on your A1 upper.) The Cav-Arms lower was from their Christmas special a year or two ago so it was $80 from them. $660 total and couldn't be happier. Hope that helps, NS6 |

Built 1st ar using a DPMS forged lower and a J&T varmint kit (16" fluted bull barrel) The finish of both are almost identical. Still working on breaking it in. VERY happy with it. showed it to a friend who is a Marine and pro-Bushy. He was thoroughly impressed. sorry no pics.

Here are mine. A 20" standard and a DS-4.
The M4 has a YHM free float tube. The final configuration will sport an Eotech with a CCH BUIS, Tango Down vertical grip and Surefire G2. Both are on Eagle Arms lowers. They fit perfectly with no slop. ME LIKE

I WILL NEVER BUY ANY MORE KITS FROM J&T.
  THEY MISS SHIPPED THREE KITS . ONE kit was a 24'' fluted all the goods Groups where worst THAN a old beater with $20 a box ammo sent upper back and it still groups suck.   Del ton m4 kits looks class a and m4 kit shoots raged hole at 50 yards with cheap ammo. ps and you did not come back to gunstock in 2004

Very very very happy with J&T. Ordered Saturday night, at my door from the big brown truck on Wednesday. Flat-top 20" on a Lauer lower. First build and went together in 2 hours taking my time and cleaning everything. All parts were there and great quality. Nice trigger for a "service grade rifle". I will buy from J&T again.

20" A3/A4 JT distributing kit on a doublestar lower. I got my kit the same day I ordered it since I'm local. Thanks for the extra pivot/takedown pin spring and detent, it really came in handy since I sent the first one flying. |

I just posted this in the ameetec forum, but I might as well put it here too. It's an Ameetec lower with a J&T kit. This is my third AR, but it's my first build and my first reliable AR. I'm very pleased.

Very happy w/ my DS-4. I upgraded many parts, VLTOR Modstock, Ergo Grip, GG&G BUIS. Was supposed to pick it up at the gunshow in Nashville. Through no fault of anyone in particualr, the upper I had ordered was not brought. No big deal, as I received it today (Sunday was gunshow) well packaged. Great service and I will do business with them again.

Does that barrel have a 1 in 8 or 1 in 7 twist? The last time I checked they did'nt have too much of an option for these twists, just a 1 in 9. I did'n t know if some thing has changed or not. I'd like to know how that this shoots, she looks good though...

Here is my new build. I have another kit on the way here shortly.
 Here is a closeup...  Its a CAR-15 kit on a DoubleStar stripped lower. The optics on this one are a Clonepoint (from 1337 on Ebay) and a Leapers T168 for longer range work. The BUIS is a Yankee Hill unit, also from J&T. C-Products and a few orlites litter the range bag as well. It LOVES 64gr Winchester JSP ammo and eats XM193 and Q3131 all the time. One for in town, one for up at the farm. (along with a Essex Arms 1911) |

JT built the barreled upper i put on the rest, btw you guys put the rail on all jacked up, didn't even have a retaining pin on the bottom rail, which allowed it to come off while shooting. i had to make one.

My company just purchased 70+ DSC M4 type carbines to go down range. 50+ of the guns have had 1-1.5K rounds each through them last month. We have had only one problem with a buffer tube detent coming out. Do have a problem with one barrel but that was a ammo issue and not the firearm. Good job, guys.

Here's my 11.5" pistol that I got in kit form from J&T. I had them replace the A1 aperature with an A2. The quality of this kit is amazing. I can't find a flaw with it.
