| It's about time to make up my mind. Who to buy a kit from, Model 1 sales or J&T? I would like to hear from some of you guys who have bought from them, especialy the ones who have bought from both and can give a comparrison. I am kinda leaning towards Model 1 just because they run about $50 cheaper than J&T. I just don't want to end up with a piece of shit, just to save a little cash. By the way, it will be a flat top carbine with picatinny rail gas block and possibly a free floated tube. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. |

I have bought and assembled kits from both Model 1 and JT bother were excellent products. I found doing business with both a joy. Products were as described and on time. I have a Model 1 24 inch varmiter with Fluted Barrel, RRA 2 stage trigger and Harris bipod. J&T Tactical Lightweight A3 with pinned TeleStock both are great |

I would say JT beats everyone in the customer service department, but their prices are higher. There are many satified customers on these boards and they sell quality kits. However, I have always been happy with the lower priced kits from M&A parts [url]www.m-aparts.com[/url] or Model 1. Both of these companies will get you the part you order and make sure everything is right, and both kits are very nice quality (at least the 4 I have are, Model 1 uses cast front site towers, but otherwise very nice). They do take longer to respond, hard to get questions answered etc. M&A sent me the wrong upper and did exchange it quickly on my last order. So IMHO, My first choice would be M&A they have forged front sight towers, high quality kits, offer many configurations including mid-length handguards, lightwieght uppers, green furniture, and fluting. Check them all out and go with the one that offers the best price for the configuration you want. I don't think you'll be dissapointed which ever you choose. Good luck and have fun! |
