I have also bought from them, and had excellent results. They are good people in my experience. I had them screw up an order and ship me a slick side a1 stripped upper instead of a c7 upper parts kit. One call to customer service and they got me fixed up. I ended up shipping back the wrong part on my dime and they refunded me my shipping and sent me the correct parts. Overall they were quick to fix my problem and I'd order from them again. |
i forgot my rifle already had an a1 front sight post. i saw it, wanted it, and bought it. i hate it when i do that.|
I really like the looks of their retro dissipator carbine "m16" type rifle. Its a frankenstein, but the only time I think I've ever come across an example of a rifle length upper (dissipator) with a CAR stock that doesnt look absolutely awful. I know this is a grim comparison, but It is seemingly identical in configuraration to the rifle used by one of the perps in the north hollywood bank robbery.

Illegal conversion. All of their firearms, including an HK91 and 2 AK types, were illegally converted to either selective fire or full auto. Looks like a professional job, those guys knew what they were doing and had quite the array of weaponry. I know it may be in bad taste, but I just got a bushmaster lower receiver and I'm thinkin my next build may actually be a north hollywood shootout clone, semi auto only of course, but I am considering making a faux sear pin with a center punch. I would post a thread about it, but I don't think it would go very well. Anyway... back to the regularly scheduled Fulton Armory Thread, and yes, they have a nice selection of parts |

im thinking about picking up a C7 upper from them.. Thats why I needed the c7 parts kit. I had ordered a c7 receiver from them and a parts kit and ended up using the sight kit on a cncguns carry handle and the forward assist I gave to a friend who lost one. My C7 upper from them looks good but if I did it again I'd order through bushmaster. I've been told that you can get the bushmaster c7 uppers with m4 feed ramps if you call them. There was a thread about it here a while ago where someone listed the correct part number. Since so many barrels have the m4 feed ramps I figure the upper should as well(yes I know it will run without them). Still not sure what I'm going to do with the c7 upper I have though. I was thinking of throwing a 20 inch gi barrel on it for a nice older style rifle. |

don't know if they still do, but Fulton used to just resell DPMS parts as theirs
and as far as what to do with that C7: from the carbine guide 723 with A2 profile barrel and M203 cut Commonly referred to as a M16A2 Carbine, slang as "CAR-15" or "M4", 8 million serial number range, 1987-?: 
still retro but uses readily available parts |

(and Fulton supplied the upper A1 parts kit) |
