| I finally pulled the trigger and completed my Del-Ton order. M-4 kit(couple extras), Eotech XPS2, Bad Lever, sling plate and an upper vice block. I'll mate it up with an Aero Precision lower that I've had since September. Finishing it off with a single point sling, MI MCTAR 20P and an Adams Arms Piston Kit. I bought some BUIS sites, a tac light and an Osprey vertical grip a couple weeks back. It's my first run at putting together an AR. |
| I had 2000 rounds down the pipe of my Del Ton/Aero Precision build until yesterday. Over the past two days I've put another 500 through the rifle. I completed a basic patrol carbine course at work. I do have video of one section and will post it later. The rifle and I performed well. The rifle shows no abnormal wear. Keep rocking those Del Tons people. |

Quoted: Does your dept use DT's as duty rifles? They have bought Colts and Bushmasters. I will be carrying a Del Ton as will a couple others. They put out a General Order that patrol rifles have to be an AR 15 style in 5.56 NATO. No name brand was ordered and won't be. Officers using personal rifles are responsible for upkeep and serviceability. I guess I'd better get on with getting the video downloaded. |

I'm getting older and slower but still like to shoot. We are shooting at bowling pins not the targets. We started at 45 yards and move down to the 10 yard target that we shoot at with our pistol. The idea was you had a limited number of rounds to hit the targets with the AR15. If you missed with the AR 15 you had to finish off with the pistol. There were mags with rounds at each station. If you didn't use them you picked them up and took them with you. I used iron sites, not the Eotech. Okay, I'm having issues embedding the video. Here is the link. |
