Del Ton Shipping Info.

[cookmonsta]

I remember seeing a thread either here or another forum about orders they are shipping out. I ordered March 4, order # 336XX. I remember seeing a thread last month that says they were on December orders. Does anyone have info. on which month they are on, in terms of shipping? Thanks in advance.

They are still about 6 months out....orders from Dec are shipping now.

I placed an order for a kit early May....I'm not expecting it to arrive till late Nov. or early Dec.

I hoping that they are ramping up production and staff but they source parts from other manufacturers as well and have to depend on supply from them.

Here are a couple links to arf.com where they have a Del-Ton specific thread on orders and where reps from Del-Ton regularly post info on status.

I have a 20" plain jane kit on order....I'm going to try and forget about and and hopefully sometime around Christmas I'll get a "surprise" present to myself.

They also said that orders dropped off significantly after January, so things should speed up once they get past that month's orders.

Now they are back ordered on 20" and m4 chrome lined barrels. People who ordered 20" havent received their uppers which were ordered November. I'm glad that I didnt change my m4 from cm to cl.

I gave up and canceled my order with them after 5 months, I ordered from PK and got it 3 or 4 days later for not much more $.

I too have bought uppers from PK, but I ordered a rifle kit from DTI for my first AR build. Since the order, I have made numerous purchases to satisfy my needs. I might as well wait now since you wont find a rifle kit for that price that will arrive within a couple months, since i've been waiting for almost 4 months now. I hope it comes by end of august, perfect for FALL season coyote hunting here in Vegas, so it wont be to hot.

I ordered a 20" kit from them in November. They are backordered for the 20" barrels and told me that they aren't going to give me an ETA since they don't know when they will get the 20" barrels.

DTI is now manufacturing their own 20" barrels with new machines they have now. The info was in one of these links
