[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Anybody wanna see a Del-Ton Upper Reciever unboxed and up close

Posted: 2/13/2012 5:30:35 PM EDT

Please forgive the misspeaking of the barrel profile, I ordered gov profile 1/9 (midway # 751604). After looking it up I "Believe" this is a Delton # DT1023, which is a heavy profile 1/9....I also noticed what looked like Chrome Lining in the Barrel....anyone have any other way of confirming CL other than visual? I may have gotten a nice upgrade from Midway.

I've been waiting patiently for over two months on the DTI upper I ordered on Black Friday. I ordered a custom upper and the barrel was out of stock. Lately I have been toying around with idea of cancelling the order. I think you may have given me another two or three weeks worth of patience.

So why is that the nicest barrel you have seen? Isn't a Government profile light under the hand guards? I can pull my USGI FN barrel out to compare. Just asking.

Not trying to be a dick but its not a govt profile and should have been very obvious to you if you knew what you were ordering. Please do not post the video on youtube as this is enough miss information out there.

I commend your efforts but you never even checked some of the most important aspects of an upper like gas key staking, barrel nut timimg, FSP pinning and FSP alignment.

The barrel is not chrome lined from what I can tell. The barrel would have a CL stamped right where it says dti 5.56mm NATO on the end of the barrel
