2 TALE OF TWO SYSTEMS We test a pair of Del-Ton M4s with Trijicon optics designed for CQC and for all-condition combat STORY AND PHOTOS BY LEROY THOMPSON Ihave to admit that lately, I ve avoided testing AR15s. Not because I don t like the AR15 I like it a lot. And not because there aren t a lot of good ones to test, because there are. In fact, that s the problem. There are so many manufacturers making good-to-excellent AR15s that it is difficult to find anything new to say about them, other than that they work and shoot straight. My objective when reviewing guns is to provide readers with new information that will help them make informed buying choices, and that s sometimes difficult when writing about the AR15/M4. Since many of the AR15s available use the same receivers and same parts, people often select a gun based on price. In fact, a lot of shooters I know these days cut out the middleman and buy a receiver and parts. They then put the AR15 together themselves, although they sometimes need a competent gunsmith for a couple of operations. What generally differentiates the producers of AR15s are the various features they include and the care with which parts are selected, finished and assembled. For some of the higher-end models, the incorporation of better triggers and other features enhances the carbine or rifle. JULY 2012 GUN WORLD 47

3 The Extreme Duty s muzzle has an A-2 flash hider and employs a 1 in 7 twist to maximize heavier bullets. The Del-Ton s controls are standard AR-15. Shown here are the safety and bolt release, along with the pistol grip and flip-up rear sight. PISTON VS. DIRECT IMPINGEMENT And there s the piston versus directimpingement consideration. I own piston and direct-impingement M4s, because I need examples of both types for writing, but the ones I carry and use the most are directimpingement models. As many of you reading this realize, the advantages of the piston system are most noteworthy in select-fire weapons, which are fired a lot, and theoretically, piston guns run cleaner. Nevertheless, I know owners of piston ARs who don t necessarily agree with that assessment. They run cooler and cleaner toward the rear of the receiver but heat up toward the front of the system. This can cause the knob on the gas block to freeze up after only a couple of hundred rounds. The advantages of direct-impingement systems are that they are lighter and generally allow better accuracy. The piston system may be an advantage when used on suppressed carbines or SBR (short-barreled rifles). Yet, for most shooters, the traditional direct-impingement AR is, I believe, a better choice. Both The direct-impingement Del-Ton quad rail AR equipped with a Trijicon RCO at 4x magnification allows for accurate engagement out to 500 yards. 48 GUN WORLD JULY

4 DEL-TON EXTREME DUTY 316 What generally differentiates the producers of AR15s are the various features they include and the care with which parts are selected, finished and assembled. SPECIFICATIONS Action Semi-auto, locked breech, direct impingement Caliber 5.56x45mm NATO Overall Length 35.6 inches with stock fully extended; inches stock fully collapsed Barrel/Length 16-inch, M4 profile, hammer forged, 1-in-7 twist, with A2 flash hider Weight 6.4 pounds empty Mag Capacity 30 rounds Sights Troy DOA folding rear, standard AR-type post front; Picatinny rail for optical sights MSRP $989 M4 carbines I will discuss in this article use the DI system, and both are from Del-Ton: the no-frills Extreme Duty 316 and a higher-end, semi-custom version. EXTREME WEAPONS So, what convinced me to test two M4 carbines from Del-Ton? First, a friend of mine who builds custom ARs told me he often recommends the Del-Ton rifle kits to those who ask his opinion and I value that A. G. Russell Acies2 Just as much knife...only smaller.

5 This close-up of the Samson Quad Rail shows the military NSN number. opinion. Second, Del-Ton offers a very nice carbine at a very nice price. Once I had decided to test the Del-Ton M4, I thought it wise to include a basic model and a model with more features. I chose the Extreme Duty 316 and what is basically a semi-custom M4 with a Samson quad rail. Let me explain, The advantages of direct-impingement systems are that they are lighter and generally allow better accuracy. because both are M4 carbines with a lot of the same features. I test a lot of illuminators/pointers (lights and lasers), and hence, prefer test guns with quad rails so I can use illuminators and pointers for those tests. Also, I write on tactical ops and still do some tactical training. Consequently, I prefer carbines configured for use with accessories. Having said that, the Extreme Duty 316 is one of the nicest M4 carbines with a standard Mil-Spec M4 stock I ve handled, so I thought it would be useful to shoot it quite a bit, too. Let s begin with the Extreme Duty s features. First, it has a hammer-forged CMV chrome-lined barrel. My experience has been that hammer-forged barrels are more accurate; this is certainly so in the SIG and Steyr rifles, both of which I ve shot quite a bit. I like that feature. Twist is 1 in 7. That faster twist is an advantage when firing heavier bullets, such as the 62-grain M855 (SS109) or the 77-grain MK262 The author fires the Del-Ton Quad Rail at hanging plates at 100 meters. The RCO works well when it is brought up onto the target from the low ready position until the tip of the chevron is on target. 50 GUN WORLD JULY

6 For the Del-Ton with quad rail, I installed my absolute favorite M4 optic and the one I carry on the carbine that is usually in my truck: the Trijicon TA31 RCO the same sight used by the USMC. A close-up of the Trijicon Reflex also shows the Extreme Duty s back-up rear sight. round, because it stabilizes them better. In the case of the M855 for military users, the faster twist also allows the penetrator to operate more effectively. Even though the Extreme Duty employs a 1-in-7 twist, less-expensive 55-grain M193 surplus ammunition can still be fired reliably and accurately in it. The bolt and carrier are Mil-Spec with a chrome-lined carrier interior and carrier key. The handguards are double heat shielded, which is a good thing if one puts a lot of rounds through the gun quickly. Upper and lower receivers and the buffer tube are all Mil-Spec. Note, too, that the Extreme Duty employs an H Buffer. The H stands for heavy and is basically the Mil-Spec buffer that will enhance reliability. It comes with a Troy DOA folding backup rear sight mounted on the flattop. This sight incorporates 200- and 600-meter apertures. I will zero mine at 200 meters, since with my aging eyes, that s about as good as I m going to do with backup iron sights. The version I ordered with the Samson quad rail is similar to the Extreme Duty but without the hammerforged barrel and with a 1-in-9 twist. It also has a standard buffer, rather than the H Buffer. Its flip-up A2 rear sight is a Samson dual aperture. Both carbines have M4 telescoping stocks. EXCELLENT OPTICS Sometimes when I test a rifle or carbine, I also test a new scope at the same time. However, with the two Del-Tons, I decided on two of the optical sights I use all of the time on the M4 carbines I carry in my truck or use otherwise. For the Extreme Duty, I mounted the Trijicon Mil-Spec RX01NSN Reflex. This sight has a flattop adapter that allows easy mounting on an M4 top rail. It is 1x and uses an amber 4.5 MOA dot for aiming. At only 4.9 inches overall and 9.2 ounces, it does not adversely affect the handling of the light and compact Extreme Duty. Since the RX01NSN sees a lot of military use in the sandbox, it comes with a polarizing filter, which I found quite useful when I was testing the Extreme Duty. Let me add one point here: Generally, I do not use reflex sights very much not because they aren t good, but because I can see much better with some magnification. Nevertheless, I like the RX01NSN and do use it on carbines I expect to shoot mostly at CQC ranges (i.e., 50 yards or less). For the Del-Ton Quad Rail, I installed my absolute favorite M4 optic and the one I carry on the carbine that is usually in my truck: the Trijicon TA31 RCO the same sight used by the USMC. As with most other ACOGs, the RCO combines tritium illumination for low light with a fiber-optic tube that helps adjust illumination to suit available light. I ve found that the system works excellently, since I have used my RCO in bright sunlight and then stepped into a darkened shoot house, where the tritium illumination took over. I also find the RCO reticle to be the fastest and easiest for me to see. It employs a red chevron, which I pick up best when moving from the low ready position up onto a target. The magnification is 4x, which is good enough for me out to 500 yards, although it is best to 300 yards. The reticle also incorporates a post with stadia lines. Designed to be zeroed at 100 meters for the tip of the chevron, the RCO then allows engagement without adjustment by just using the inside of the chevron s tip, the top of the post or one of the stadia lines out to 800 meters. Additional horizontal lines may be used for target identification or lead on moving targets. The reticle also allows for range finding. This optic is very tough, has been proven in use by hundreds of thousands of Marines and is very easy to JULY 2012 GUN WORLD 51

7 The RCO s reticle employs a red chevron and a post with stadia lines. It also allows for range finding. This topside front view of the Trijicon RCO reveals its red fiber-optic tube, which increases the intensity of the chevron in bright light. some cases, starting from low ready with the safety on. The Extreme Duty handled well and was completely reliable with four mags, each loaded with 27 rounds the number I was trained to load many years ago. I initially used 62-grain M855 to zero the reflex, but for shooting at plates, I used 55-grain surplus ammo, since point of impact at those distances wouldn t matter that much, but the cost of M855 fired in quantity would have use. Mine has been used in all types of weather and thrown in and out of my vehicle on my M4 hundreds of times, although normally in a soft case. If I owned only one combat optical sight for an M4 or other battle rifle, it would be the RCO. In retrospect, I probably should have mounted the Trijicon Reflex on the Del-Ton with the quad rail, because fitted with a light, it would have been a better choice for CQC. (For future shooting, I may do that, but since I have the Reflex and RCO zeroed, I may not.) SEE HOW THEY RUN I shot the Extreme Duty first. I only shot it on paper at 25 and 50 yards to get the dot zeroed and did not worry about groups, although threeshot groups at 50 yards (the longest distance I shot the Extreme Duty) ran around 3 inches. Mostly, I shot the Extreme Duty with the reflex sight at plates between 15 and 50 yards, in The RCO is designed to be zeroed at 100 meters for the tip of the chevron, which then allows engagement without adjustment. 52 GUN WORLD JULY

8 Thompson fires the Del-Ton Quad Rail with the Trijicon RCO optic from the kneeling position. The RCO allows engagement at CQC distances out to 500 meters or more. This five-shot, 100-yard group from the Del-Ton Quad Rail was shot with Federal 69-grain MatchKing BTHP. impacted my wallet. Moving among them quickly, I hit the plates most of the time. Since I had mounted the RCO on the Del-Ton with the quad rail, I shot it at longer range. I zeroed the RCO with the tip of the chevron on at 100 meters and fired a couple of five-shot groups in the process. Initially, since the quad-rail Del-Ton has a 1-in-9 twist, I did all of my shooting with 55-grain M193 surplus ammo. However, to actually check for accuracy, I fired a five-shot group from a rest with Federal 69-grain MatchKing BTHP. I assumed the group wouldn t be centered, and it wasn t. Instead, it was off to the right a bit and slightly low, but it was around 1.5 inches, which is pretty good for a standard AR-15. I have shot some really excellent groups with AR-15s, but usually, they are ones with target triggers and other special features. The quad rail Del-Ton was also 100 percent reliable for 108 rounds of various loadings. As is generally the case with quad rail ARs, I would The Del-Ton AR-15 uses a telescoping M4 stock. recommend getting the rubber ladder -type rail covers for the areas where accessories are not attached to avoid abrading your support hand. SERIOUS BANG FOR THE BUCK Del-Ton AR-15s are carefully assembled, and perform reliably and accurately. Their prices are very competitive, too. Even the highquality Extreme Duty has an MSRP of less than $1,000. For the shooter who wants one AR-15 whether for plinking, selfdefense, hunting or prepping I think Del-Ton offers good value for the money. GW CONTACT Del-Ton Dept GW (910) GUN WORLD JULY
