Anyone have experience with the J&T Distributing advertised in Shotgun News? Primarily interested in whether or not their items are as advertised and if they make good on mistakes or poor quality parts without hassles, but any info helpful.

I just bought a used J&T upper on the EE and I'm very happy with it. Several years back I bought a post ban 20 inch kit directly from them and had no problems. I would definately buy from them again...good for the money IMHO.

They have a good reputation overall, you might check out their forum on the Industry forum.

My last two kits were purchased from J&T.  Also a barrel, an upper receiver, and other asst small parts.  Uppers were well assembled.  Nothing but good quality parts and fast service, apparently shipped same day as my online order.

Search what? I want to be sure it's the same J&T, hence the address and mention of where I saw the ad.  Surely there's more than one J&T out there. There's more than one RGUNS. Not that I want to open that can of worms. Besides, not everyone posts a good experience with a dealer. Thanks to those that have replied.

Do business with them all the time.  They take pride in their quality and customer service.

Can't say anything much better than that.

I have bought two of their Expedition 16" upper kits.  Very good quality and good shooters as well.  Thet are great to deal with.

BTW...At Knob Creek they had a sister company selling whole rifles and lowers.  I cannot recall the name...but my brother in law bought a 20" H-bar all chromed lined for $725.  It looked really nice, but I have not shot it yet.

I just bit the bullet and ordered my first AR kit from J&T. I ordered the CAR 16" kit.. I am so excited (I know it sounds gay) to get this together. Its going to be built on a Mega lower.

my first AR was a J&T build. I love that thing...  shoots flawless... has had 1 malfunction in about 1500 rounds which was just a stovepipe caused by what I think was an underpowered wolf round.... but other than that runs like a champ and accurate as all get out... 16 inch EM-4 kit (M4gery)

I have had no quality problems with my J&T kits, but thier website is not current on some prices and products. When I ordered a Colt M4 barrel for 299.00  I got a Colt pencil barrel instead and paid 350.00 !!!! I will not order from them anymore. it was two weeks before I could get my calls returned.

You receive that kit yet? I ordered the same kit a few days ago- called today to find that there is a backlog (couldn't get an expected delivery date).
