Who’s a reputable Colt parts dealer?  I’ve looked at Brownells, Midway, SA, and AU.

I am specifically looking for a barrel nut/delta assembly, a virgin FSB, preferably “F” marked, and a handguard retainer.

New subsidiary of Arms Unlimited. They are waiting for parts to ship from Colt.

Thanks.  I saw that site, wasn’t sure if it was legit or not.

My go to reputable and genuine Colt parts seller had been Specialized Armament since 2005.
YMMV

I placed an order at Specialized Armament last week and I never got an email for the order. Have not received a response to my email either. I’ve used them before and have had no issues.

I was thinking about using coltparts.com but I had a feeling it might be a scam site. Looks like they have the same address listed as Arms Unlimited. Good to know they are legit

That is kind of odd. Usually you will get a confirmation email after the order asking you to send in your credit cards security code. Then after that it can take up to a month to get the parts.

Though Specialized Armament is closed from Oct 24th to Nov 1st and it says on the home page of their site "New/Upgraded Website under Development". So that all might have something to do with it.

I’m glad to see this posted. I stumbled upon this site a couple weeks ago and wondered if they were legit or not. Despite the experience of some I’ve got nothing but great things to say about AU.

I still have not received any confirmation or a reply to my email I sent regarding my order.

I placed an order with coltparts.com and am pleased with the outcome. I will probably be using them moving forward.
