Just be aware of one thing. Just about all of their AR15 stuff, except for the lower reciever, are actually DPMS produced pieces. Even the parts kits, which are packaged in a Fulton marked conrtainer, is DPMS.,
So if you're going to order any pieces, check both the Fulton and the DPMS price lists. I have found that on some things Fullton is a tad less expensive than DPMS; and on other items DPMS ius less expensive.

Quoted:
who makes their slick side A1 receiver? I ordered one to put my bushmaster SL barrel on. Found out...DPMS DPMS. Actually, I think DPMS may have disconntenued the slick side piece; so Fulton might have any that are left. Don't know that for sure though. Also, the Fulton/DPMS uppers are pretty black in their color, so don't be surprised ifwhat you get is a not so hot color match w/yoiur lower. |
| Well, I still say they get a plus for actually answering the phone and the service was good as well, but be carefull. Their website doesn't show what's in stock. You get to find out when you open your package (should've called to confirm). I ordered a slightly overpriced part and a slightly underpriced part which was a wash but I was excited to get them both from one place save on shipping. Package arrived this week with a packing list that had the bargin item marked out of stock. I ended up paying a little more for the one part and full shipping. They offered to sell me the out of stock part without shipping which is completely fair but they don't know when it will be back in stock and I may need one before then. |

There is a difference in texture between the upper receiver and lower receiver. The slickside receiver is an excellent piece. I really like it. I wish I had the money to get a couple more.  |

I've had mine for a couple of years now and have run it on my friends M16 Lower many times with zero complaintsQuoted: I have the FA upper receiver installed with a DTI barrel and a Stag lower.Quoted: who makes their slick side A1 receiver?

There's some folks (police officers from the look of the .com site) really ticked at Fulton Armory for really poor customer service and what I might consider criminal product misrepresentation.
I Googled Fulton Armory and found a few unhappy folks, but, here in AR15.COM people are really happy with Fulton's products and service. Tonight I found Fulton somewhat wanting on their customer service skills. If an item is out of stock and backordered then their web-site should indicate that. When a customer orders several items and receives a shipping email with shipment tracking info and the Brown truck delivers that golden package to be opened to find criminally chinzy product and an invoice with half your order (the half you REALLY wanted) hand inked out with a hand written " Item out of stock. Backordered." scribbled over your item line... When you call Fulton and try to find out when the item you REALLY wanted will be back in stock the guy says "If you don't get it in a couple of days call us back." This, after I've read so many good things about Fulton Armory. Anybody else have good or bad dealings??? |
