    i have one of their 16" LW kits that i threw together for my GF and it only ended up costing roughly $700 give or take... the only options i chose were yhm FF and BO tac latch and i got a take-off carry handle here for $30, threw in some JP yellow springs and called it a day. everything fit like it was supposed to and it goes bang when i pull the trigger.

      I was overwhelmed by the research too, so I just bought one complete (not new). If I get a wild hair to build one, I can learn by what I hate or what sucks on my purchased one.

        Del-ton has the best bang for your buck by far. People that own Del-tons say they are great quality. Most people that have anything bad to say about them do not actually own one and base their opinion on lame low price equals low quality argument.

        I can set you up with a new Del-ton complete upper and parts kit for $485 plus $20 shipping. I also have bullet buttons available for $20. All you need to buy is a lower receiver and a 10 round magazine.

          Ive built 10 delton midlength's. every one has been a winner . great price and great customer service. One time i got a lower parts kit from them and it was missing two little but crucial pieces. they answered their email within a day and shipped shortly after no questions asked. my most recent order involved 2 lower parts kits. they forgot to put one in and only shipped one. I sent them an email explaining and without a hassle or bs, they shipped within a day. i love their excellent customer service. don't wait just pick something and go with it. then build another one. youll be happy you did.

            building them can be just as fun as shooting them. buy your parts, put it together. how else will you know whats going on and how to fix things if something were to go wrong.

              what kind of stock is that? What brand LPK? Specs on that Upper? And how much would it be to change out that Bulbuss handguard with a railed one? that's damn cheap btw. i could be done for under $700. Definately interested.

                you really cant beat that deal for a desent AR15.

                Buy the Delton kit for $505 shipped. Buy a Plumcrazy complete lower for about $190 out the door. You then have a spare LPK and Stock parts.

                  The stock is a 6 position stock from Del-ton. The LPK is also from Del-ton. What do you want to change the "Bulbuss front piece" with? I assume you are talking about the front hand guard. I have quad rail front hand guards available from a couple different makers. They cost $45 extra to trade it out.

                    yeah the handguard. I would like to see what you've got and I think we've got a deal. Looking for keeping it slim and square not round able to attach a front grip and light on the side. Going for a red dot optic. Is that a 16" barrel. Specs? Thanks.

                            Yes I do

                            It is in the banners on the top of Calguns web site.
                            The AR-15 accessories are on my web site but the Del-ton parts kit and bullet buttons are not since I only have a few of them.
