IMO the M&P's are a slightly higher quality weapon over the Delton's. OP you could by two if you were prepared to lay down a grand or buy one sport and get yourself a red dot. Oh and don't purchase two AR's at the same time, otherwise you get put on the WH's "special list" for the border states.

 

Yea just that this isn't the CA version but I'm kinda swaying away from the Delton Either way in experiences with this AR? Never heard of that "special list" lol

 

Not the CA version so it has no BB? The list goes to DHS for anyone in a border state that buys two more more AR's or AK's in a single transaction. All stores are required to report you so the WH can watch for straw buyers. No one advertises the fact though...

 

Crazy didn't know that. So I'd assume the time would be longer for you to receive it?

 

no its still 10 days for your DROS to clear

 

hmm interesting nice to know, but barely getting into ARs so just want one at the moment

 

If you have the urge to shoot NOW, go to the range and rent one.

 

OP, you live in Cali? Oops, sorry...linked the wrong rifle.

Try this one: Colt LE6920CA with BB installed. http://www.gandrtactical.com/cgi-bin/commerce.cgi?preadd=action&key=6920CA

 

So I walked out of turners paying $500 for a delton sport, I think it was good?

 

Good buy, there are better rifles out there for sure, but for that price range very few can stand with it. I've owned my DT for a few years now and have put thousands of rounds through it. Not just static targets at the range either. Multiple training courses, rolling around in the dirt and getting it extremely hot. I'm not easy on my guns and mine has never had a hiccup. I've taken mine to 300yrds without an issue, if you put a quality trigger, FF rail, optics and do your part I'd bet it will do MOA. Mine shot 1.5" with a red dot.

 

Good purchase OP! Don't regret it. Just like our trucks and determining what lift to buy, "intended use" is what should be the determining factor. Most people complain about reliable "this" and history "that", but in the end, it's your money and your call. Sure there are better rifles out there, but or that price point you can't beat it. You can get a custom build with all the tacti-cool bells and whistles (that you'll probably never use) if you have the +$3K to put down for it. The reality is that most people that buy ARs aren't going to see any real combat and only a few are actually going to compete or do any kind of tactical training with them. You'll be happy with your purchase once you get it and start throwing rounds downrange. Then comes the mods... and the money... and more mods...

 

Call me crazy but this exact story was told to me by a sales rep at turners hahaa, but yea heard thee same hope it turns out great heard nothing but good things about it only con is that its cheap and people think less of it but we'll see. I wont be putting it through a lot specially with the price of ammo!!!
Been wanting to hear some reviews about its long range but 300 yards is more than I'll ever need.

Thanks man!
P.S. what hand guard you running? I was looking into the MOE MagPulls?

 

Exactly, I figured its a good starter gun for the price I ended up walking away. I'm personally more into shotguns but I have a feeling ill be dumping more money into AR's than I initially had thought. Now gotta wait the dam 10 day waiting period

 

I run a 13" Troy Industries rail and love it, pricey though. Magpul MOEs are good, but not free floating. if you don't see the need to shoot out to 300yds then you don't need a FF rail and the MOE will be fine

 

So here it is got it after the 10 days did a few mods do it, love the way it shoots very impressed.
