Everything looks the same as my Colt which has equivalent # of rounds through it.
The only doubts I have about the Del-Ton originated once I began surfing forums and reading all the negative posts on forums about them. One thing about Del-Ton I have learned is they build to a price point. Their high end products are built with superior components and care than their basic budget models. From what I have seen and experienced personally, the TRX model is a solid high-quality AR.
AND, Roger that on the Geissele G2S trigger! I installed it Thursday night and WOW what a huge difference! Just astounding how great that trigger feels and operates. Love, love, love that trigger! The only downside is, now my Colt trigger feels awful in comparison. So, I don't have any choice other than to put a Geissele in it too now. :cool:
I'll be sure to keep you guys informed as time and rounds go by and let you know of any issues or lack thereof with my Del-Ton TRX.
