[QUOTE="ridurall, post: 2617660, member: 2693"] As many of you know Randy Pinkham was my best friend who died this past Febuary 2nd from complications due to cancer. I got a call the other day from a friend that purchased several guns from Randy's widow one of them was a 10mm Delta Elite with a Foster/Caspian lower. Great grips and an arched mainspring housing with a magazine funnel. For some reason he just realized that it's not all Colt Delta Elite and wanted Linda to refund his money. Man I couldn't see her going through that it just about broke my heart. So even though I knew I had no responsibility I decided to tell him I'd buy it from him. In the process he knew I had a 300 AAC/Blackout AR-15 so instead of giving him $1000 we traded straight across. I took the arched mainspring housing and funnel off and replaced it with a flat mainspring housing and while I've not tested it yet I picked up 700 rounds from Linda to brake it in. Here is a picture of it as I obtained it. I purchased another couple hundred rounds of 180 gr Hollow Point ammo for the 10mm on the 6th of September and it arrived today by Fed Ex.
