    OP-

    If I were you I would just ditch the thing, buy the really nice rifle you're apparently already planning to buy and put the battlecomp and TR24 on that. Why put lipstick on a pig?

    Why keep junk around if you're already planning on getting something nice regardless of whether or not the junk runs ok?


    Three out of four replies were probably about money because of the whole "I have lots of money" thing... Good for you but the way it comes across probably isn't going to win you lots of friends, you're right. "I have a decent firearms budget" might have come across as less conceited.

    It seems sad to put anything made by Trijicon on anything made by Del Ton.

    This is like buying tools at Harbor Freight because you only plan on using them once 0.o It's painfully obvious this is an enthusiast forum. Is trolling for harassment fun for you?

    Yup, just go ahead and purchase the second rifle. Keep the delton in KISS config, and use it as a spare to lend to friends or guests. Have someone go over it though and ensure things are assembled right.

    Your backup plan sounds good. Yeah, switch to plan B.

    I don't see any issues shooting it a lot to help figure out what you really want out your next. If u choose to build your next one I think a lot of time behind it will help you decide what configuration is best for you.

    I made an impulse by last week, a g26 with he fail zero exo finish on the slide. But I agree, not that you own it shoot it until it falls apart.

    Alright, if the OP wants to "test" out this rifle at the range and in competition, I say let him. He says he has money to spare...

    What in the hell is up with the rash of Delton and Bushmaster threads?

    It seems to come in waves. Same thing happened with Spike's.

    This comment smacks of conceit and arrogance. Also, keep in mind that if your Del-Ton does survive your little test, it's still just a sample of one.
