      I was told Delta Team Tactical and Davidson Defense are sister entities and share the customer service team. Customer Service can be spotty, but if you keep in touch with them (phone or email), you'll definitely get your stuff.

      Their ordering, billing and shipping systems seem to have issues communicating. Whatever you do, make sure you spell your email address correctly in the ordering system. They can't change it and you won't get order tracking.

      SOP seems to be is to hold your entire order if an item is out of stock. If you think your order is slow getting out, ask about that...

      Not affiliated. Just went thru some purchases recently. Got my stuff in decent time once we got the ball rolling. Don't know about their barrel, but the quality was good on the parts I ordered.

            Thanks for that Jethro, ordered a couple hundred. Their minimum shipping seems to be $13 so I had to add a few hundred overstocks.

                    Not buying that. When Alexander Arms released the 6.5 Grendel, I'm pretty sure their rifle used a 0.136" bolt face depth.

                    There may have been AR's shooting 7.62x39 that used the 0.125" bolt face depth, but that doesn't make it a Grendel Type I.

                      DB is essentially correct, although if you want to say a Type I 0.125 bolt came into existence when manufacturers started converting ARs to 7.62x39, then BJ has a point. Not bothering to think thru the engineering, they simply started with the standard 5.56 boltface depth of 0.125 and made the face wider for the larger case head.

                      But in the Grendel world, the original Alexander Arms bolt for both .50 Beowulf and 6.5 Grendel were patterned after Colt's research for a 7.62x39 AR bolt and the boltface depth is 0.136. This bit of simple engineering is to account for the thicker case rim of 7.62x39/6.5 Grendel brass.

                      In recent years, Type I and Type II started from a barrel company, Black Hole Weaponry, as a way to distinguish whatever bolt happened to be available and in stock for their Grendel barrel customers.

                      Type I or 0.125 or 7.62x39 bolts will "work," but they are not ideal. Having said that, I've been studying the issue closely and I can see how they can be made to work with a few tweaks to the extractor design.

                      Type II or 0.136 or Grendel bolts are designed correctly to account for the thicker case rim of the 7.62x39/6.5 Grendel brass.

                        Just ordered one, although the price jumped to a whopping $92.99 Also happened to add a VG6 6.5 Gamma for a discounted price of $52.49 (only shows up in Cart). I believe that discount applies to all the VG6 brakes.

                            Not specifically Grendel (not a great discount either but it does pay for shipping), but American Spirit Arms has a special going on for their Non-reciprocating Side Charging Receivers which are the best there are.
