And man, is it something!
I'm building a Grendel rifle, planned on doing it using the cheapest milspec parts I could find except the 20" barrel and the FF tube (Satern and Knights Arm. respectively). The 2 stage worked RRA trigger came from another rifle, most of the small milspec parts are DPMS, an AR Stoner buttstock, and Aero Precision receivers that I got a REAL good deal on. It'll get a 7.62 ACOG from another rifle. This will be the SDM rifle I always wanted when I was an SDM. The configuration is a semi M16A4 with a FF rain instead of the M5. But I ran into a few extra dollars and decided to scrap the Daniel Defense carrier group in lieu of the JP Ent. carrier assy. only. I didn't need the bolt because the Satern bbl. came with a bolt.
The Daniel Defense looked like a very fine milspec part, much more attention to detail than the Oly I have in my M4. But the JP part is just awesome. It is stainless, but coated or treated with something that makes it dark. The part is so smooth and slick, real attention to detail was done here, it oozes quality. No machine marks at all. None at all. Everything looks highly polished. For $30 more than the DD part -the bolt that it came with makes this an awesome deal I feel, especially for me since I didn't need the bolt.
For anyone building an AR, I highly recommend taking a look at this part. I really don't know of any bolt carrier out there that even comes close.
I got the "tactical" version, that is the one most like a milspec one and works with the regular recoil assy. They make a very light version, but you need the appropriate recoil assembly to go with it. Sort of costly there. They make some very fine products, but don't get much lip here. They even make .308 AR rifles, costly, but less than some talked about here, and I bet they rock.
