Thanks YWHIC, copy that! Id already posted that very question before purchasing this upper, I figured a little extra zeroing was worth not having to dremel the "evil" lug

I'm certainly not an expert on this matter, my point of comparison would be a Bushmaster I've owned previously, the DTI is very good as far as fit and finish are concerned. I did quit a bit if Internet research before getting thi kit, an most of what I'd read about DTI seemed pretty positive. You'll read alot about "mil-spec" and such (properly staked gas key, finish under the gas block, etc) and DTI had most, if not all of what seems to be crucial for a reliable AR Alot of people seem to indicate if youre not spending $1k plus, you're getting a "range toy" that couldn't be trusted in a serious situation I have no doubt that companys like BCM, noveske etc. make a fantastic rifle, the question for me was "how much more fantastic?" My choice of an AR as a platform was due largely to the ability to upgrade and modify, so I figured even if this isn't the "best of the best" with some elbow grease I could get pretty damn close. one thing I will write as absolute FACT is this-once you finish your first build, you'll be hungry for more

Picked up my NJGF lower from these guys today,couldn't be happier! If you're in NNJ, touch base with Mastodon before shopping anywhere else!

Here's my beauty Del-Ton M4 kit, 1x9 chromed barrel, pinned and welded phantom aggressive comp, going to slap in the BCM extractor kit, but thats about it (also gonna see how long Ill stay old school with just irons before I slap on the strikefire)

Glad to help! This kit with the necessary "new jersey" upgrades was $588 shipped can't say enough good things about DTI customer service too I'll let you know how she shoots once I'm up & running

Yeah thanks, wasn't easy getting the pic without the glare from the ghost lower ugh!

Does this count? Nope, didn't think so This lovely piece of .556 goodness is awaiting a NJGF lower currently residing @ mastodon This year will be slow for me, Im newlyed, with a new, non firearm addition to the family in September! But my prediction is: Finish the rifle, pistol (g19, M&P...YTBD) and a pump action shotty

Heres a couple of the upper, this is the 1x9 chrome lined barrel, phantom aggressive pinned and welded, and some other tacticool, mall ninja equipment I've gathered while waiting in a change of address

This is just before I put a breathalyzer on my beard trimmer D'OH

Congrats!

sure! if my papers are ready tomorrow as promised, I should have the build done by Monday

yogurt, granola bar, water sounds like the lunch of a fit man sounds like, but isn't!

+1 to you sir! (even though you +1'd Pizza Bob basically calling me a big pansy! :fugg: ) Your "order of steps" post should be pinned, very much appreciated

can't recommend which to buy, I just had the chrome lined, 1x9, pinned brake m4 kit shipped w the A2 stock & A2 from sight, no bayo lug Del-ton had it to my door in under 3 weeks Awesome customer service!

Not sure how the facts add up on this case, I'm surprised that someone who seems to have a firearms background had a pistol stolen inside his home, while he was present. Only one person in my home has access, ever. Me short of a burglar with some decent equipment and enough time to locate, and liberate my valuables, nobody handles the iron without me being there This guy does NOT deserve whats happening, just seems strange

Oh, REAL HELPFUL BOB! sorry, just kiddin! less than 2 hours later.... a phone call from my PD, everything should be ready by Friday!!

Fired this off today, so nervous I feel like I'm gonna puke Is it polite enough? LOL Chief XXXXXXX Good afternoon, My name and I'm a with a question I'm hoping you can help me resolve. I had dropped off a form to change the address on my NJ firearms ID card in early October, and was told to bring the required "SB-66"Consent for Mental Health Records to fingerprinting center. Once there, the staff instructed me to bring the form back to my police department. On 11/5/11, I was able to speak with the officer in charge of handling my application, and was told that form "SB-66" would not be necessary. After waiting 90 days, I placed a call to follow up and see if there was anything I needed to do to help this process, and was told that the NJSP had not returned any of the necessary information. Upon contacting the NJSP firearms unit, they stated that the results of my fingerprinting had been processed and sent on 11/7/11, regarding my application as of late January. If this delay in processing is due to a mistake I've made in the application, I would be glad to have

Stopped in person and spoke with the desk officer, told him id be gla to help if there was anything they needed from me (super polite the whole way for me) the captain who is in charge of permits wasn't around. (shocker) He made a call to someone when I explained its been 4 months and said to the person on the other end, "it's on HIS desk?" hangs up and says I'll get a call when it's ready, if there had been an issue with the app, I'd have been notified gonna give it one more week and start drafting a letter to the chief, and mayor

Thanks everyone, this forum is such a great resource! I'm going in person again today to see if I can get a face to face with the officer, see how that goes, from there, I'll start escalating (insert "poor me" emoticon)

I also called NJSP @ 609-882-2000 x2060 and spoke with a couple I very helpful women, is there another number, or someone I should ask for? They basically told me they couldn't understand what the problem was, but couldn't really help, and told me to have my PD call them- back to square one!

I went in person to ask why they didn't take my yellow mental health form, and the officer in charge responded "you don't need it" I told him if there was anything he needed from me to help make things easier for him, please let me know. To put it mildly, he was not receptive! I'm cautious about going back now, I don't want to cause "bottom of the pile" syndrome, lol

if anyones going to suggest contacting my representative, it Frank lautenberg, so that doesn't really help!

Hi all, I've been waiting since the first week of October for a change of address in Bergen county. My references received thier forms pretty quickly, and mailed them back in. NJSP say they've returned morpho results to my local PD on 11/7/11, but also stated they've received nothing from the local PD. I don't want to be "lawyer guy" but I've contacted my local dept, and can't get a phone call returned, is there anything a lawyer can do that I cant? Any recommendations?

Thank you so much for NOT writing "for all intensive purposes" My least favorite malapropism
