We were talking about odd combinations in the office today. Specifically about food. We were talking about how different foods that don't really sound like they go together seem to work flawlessly.
For Instance, mayo and bbq sauce. Another one that was brought up is french fries and teriyaki sauce. Tater Tots and BBQ sauce. While none of those may sound good to you guys, they may sound good to others. It reminded us here at Delta of the different ways and colours that a person can customize their AR. Sometimes, people make them look odd to others but amazing in their own eyes. So, whatever you decide to make your new upper look like, grab one today from us and get customizing even sooner.

Fat Squirrels

My family and I were on a vacation at a popular 'camping' site in Idaho that is known for its hot springs. My husband and his family had gone several times before, and he had told me about a phenomenon to which I have previously never heard before.
What is it? Really fat squirrels. I do not jest when I say that one morning I saw this big blob of a squirrel try to run across the road, but it couldn't. His belly was dragging on the ground so much that his little paws could not make him go any faster. I took a photo, woke up my husband and we had a good laugh about how that squirrel definitely knew where all the food was. Like how that small squirrel had a big belly, we here at Delta have huge deals for you to browse through while you imagine what the world of that 'campsite' would be if all the squirrels were that big.

Martin Luther King Jr Day
Posted by Karri on 1/20/2020 to
AR-15
Today, the world celebrates the birthday of one of the most influential men in America's history. Martin Luther King Jr would have been 91 years young today if he had not been assassinated in 1968. As a civil rights leader, he led the country into a new time where we could all be part of his "Beloved Community" where communities were strengthened, individuals were empowered and barriers that had come between people could be bridged over.
The firearm community is a tight knit community that spans all over the place. We here at Delta just wanted to say thank you to our customers for giving us the chance to be in this wonderful community so that we can grow and provide quality parts for a low price. So, thank you to all of you who have helped us grow as a company and we hope that we can continue to be a part of this community so that we can all enjoy the things we love. Together.

What Cookies And Guns Have In Common

It is that time of the month again! That's right, girl scout cookies! We just had our annual little girl scout come in and almost immediately, everyone succumbed to the deliciousness that is cookies. Cookies and guns surprisingly have a lot in common. Once you have a taste, you simply want them more and more often. They are both fun to receive as presents, and you have to hide the purchase from your wife in fear that she will take the cookies for herself. Much like the girl scout cookies, uppers here at Delta will get your sweet tooth aching simply because the deals are to sweet to pass up. So check out the deals below while you plot about where you are going to hide your latest cookies from your family finding them.

Lost And Found Items

A friend of mine was searching through her wallet the other day and found a very odd thing. She found a gift card. It wouldn't have been that odd, except that she had gotten it a little over a year ago and just forgot about it. She very happily went out that next day and used it. It is amazing what people find when they don't know they are looking for it. Sometimes you can be just looking through a website and stumble on the very item that you didn't know you had. Take Delta for example. You can log in to your account, find all sorts of amazing deals, then tell yourself that you will buy it later when your wallet isn't all the way across the room. Well, don't wait. Deals at Delta tend to run out of items when we have them, so they may not be in your cart the next time you stop by. Don't forget your cart and then you can happily be putting your next build together.

Finding loopholes around wife's laws
Posted by Karri on 1/17/2020 to
General
A friend and I were talking the other day and he was telling me about how his wife is making him not buy any guns this year. He said it was kinda like the 1920's when the government said that no one could drink anymore. He also said that, much like the speakeasies, he had found a loophole that while dangerous, would allow him to continue to pursue his hobby.
He had decided to buy a single piece of his new AR that he is building over the course of a few weeks at a time. If he ever got caught, he could just say that it is a replacement part for one of his older builds. While not buying a whole gun just as his wife said, he is buying it piece by piece and building it in the one place that the wife will never look. His man cave. After all, that is what he said it is made for.

Be safe around guns and loud music
Posted by Karri on 1/16/2020 to

My friend Jenna went to a concert last night and was talking our ears off about it this morning. One of the things she mentioned was that she got punched in the side by a stranger and that it really hurt. We started talking about all the ways that people get hurt at concerts and we started drawing similarities from protective gear to wear to concerts and protective gear to wear shooting.
For instance, when you are at a concert, it is really loud. That is kinda the point. However, if you don't feel like going deaf, you can wear ear plugs much like how you are supposed to wear ear plugs when you are shooting to protect your ears. When you are shooting, you are also supposed to wear eye protection in case something comes flying at you such as dirt or even a shell the is ejecting. At a concert, you almost never know what is gonna happen throughout the night, so you should wear eye protection of some kind just in case someone decides to use you as target practice for their throwing skills. Although you may not be protected from losing shoes, getting bruised, losing your voice or anything else that Jenna has done at concerts within the last year, you should always wear protection whether you are shooting or listening to your favorite band shred the guitar.

National Do Nothing Day

Have you ever just woken up and decided that you don't want to do anything today? Much like the famous Bruno Mars song, there is nothing that sounds more fun on some occasions than sitting around doing nothing. Alas, since it is a work day, today's national nothing day can not be fulfilled as impatient bills must get paid, hangry people must get fed and there are just so many deals on Delta to check out.
There are some people out there that simply can not stay still. They must have something to do with their hands, even if they are watching television. We here at Delta offer our the majority of our uppers with an assembled or unassembled option, so if you get your next build with the unassembled option, you have something for your hands to fiddle with while you relax and watch your favorite show.

Two Tone
Posted by Karri on 1/15/2020 to
AR-15
We were talking about the different styles of AR the other day and what we thought of each one. When we were talking, we stayed to the look of the platform instead of the function, because while almost every AR can be changed to look unique to what their owner wants, the function of said AR's is fundamentally the same.
The main three that were brought up is the classic, the two-tone, and the color coordinated. The classic look was brought up to be the sleek black look where all of the parts on the upper are the same shade of black giving it that spy look that they wanted. The two-tone is pretty simple, because it means that your upper has both black and silver on it. Most commonly here at Delta, our two-tone builds are black receivers with a stainless barrel along with a black muzzle and handguard. Color coordinated is where you have whichever main color you want (most common is black) and it is accented with a bright color such as blue or red or gold.
Whichever style you want, we have options for them here at Delta Team Tactical. Check out the deals that we have for you both below and on our website.

Lottery

We were talking about the lottery the other day and what each of us in the office would do if we were to win. Even though there is no lottery in Utah, it doesn't hurt to think about it. Almost everyone said that they would pay off their debts and after that there were many different routes such as going on a vacation, buying things for their family, and even buying a new house.
One guy said that he would buy a lot of land. So much land that someone could even run out of gas just getting to his remote cabin in the middle of nowhere. Of course, another thing that people said they would do is buy a couple of 'toys' like a dirtbike or Corvette or something that they have wanted for a long time. One of the most popular item mentioned was getting their dream gun that they have wanted for a long time. While we don't have the lottery numbers, we do have a huge amount of deals on quality AR's for you guys to check out below and on our website. Make sure to grab the one you want before they are gone!

Ripple Effect
Posted by Karri on 1/13/2020 to

A coworker and I were chatting about the ripple effect and how something that seems so small can change things in the future as the ripple just gets bigger and bigger. For instance, way back in 1930, the very first Mickey Mouse comic strip was published. Over the next 90 years, just that one character would grow to become one of the most well known faces and voices in history. While I have no doubt that Disney had great aspirations for that mouse, I don't think he realized just how much of an effect he would have. My coworker told me that that was the whole point of the ripple effect. That any choice that we make now will have unforeseen consequences, both good and bad. So, why not start a ripple by purchasing the next rifle in your collection or even starting with your very first one. Who knows where it may lead, but at least you will have fun pursuing it.

Use the right tools

I was talking to a co-worker the other day about building an AR without tools and he said it was like shoveling snow while it was snowing. Not only does it take a lot longer, it also frustrates the fire out of you. While we may not be shoveling snow in a blizzard, we here at Delta Team Tactical likes it when our customers can build their AR's in a peaceful way. While that may not seem possibly with the little detents of the LPK going every which way, we do have a gunsmithing mat on sale that will help you. A premium gunsmithing kit that has its own personal mat with slots for each of the tools is just the thing to bring to the range as well just in case you need to take your upper apart to figure out a problem. Check it, and our many other great items, out below. Our Aero Precision products are still on sale!

Failure Is An Option
Posted by Karri on 1/9/2020 to
General
Failing will always be a part of life. Much like the meaning of our quote of the day below, it is important that people fail at least once in their lives. Imagine it if you had never failed at anything you have done. Yes, it can seem idea, but would you really not be failing, or would you only be failing at growing as a person. I know people are afraid of failing. It can keep you back from trying new things and experiencing what a thrill it can be. For instance, someone who constantly fears of failing at trying a sport when they are young will never realize that they are really good at it. So, whether it is trying a new round for the first time or asking someone else to go shooting with you for the first time, take that chance. Yes, they may say no. On the other hand, they may say yes, and then you have that memory because you took a chance at failure, and failure lost. Our Aero Precision products are still on sale!

Humanity's Strength

Something that makes humanity great is that we continue to build off of each other. To share what discoveries have been made in one generation and watch others take up the baton and continue to run until they pass it off to the next generation.
The same thing goes with America. Today marks the 230th year since President George Washington shared his views about our great country and what goals he had for America going into her first years of being born in his first State of the Union address. So don't be afraid to take something you have seen and make it better. To build on the foundation that has already been laid. Take an AR build plan from your friend and make it better and your own by grabbing some accessories from Delta Team that will make a new foundation for your children to do the same. Such is the way of discovery.

Life Is Frustrating
Posted by Karri on 1/7/2020 to
AR-15
Life can be frustrating. Things don't go the way you planned, or they do and it was not the outcome that you expected. If you throw children into the mix, I have been told that it makes life that much more aggravating.
Instead of losing your temper or breaking your little stress relief doll, we here at DTT have come up with some ways to help life go a little more right. One of the ways that was brought up was, of course, going shooting with a friend. Being around someone who calms you down has a really big effect on how you handle anger in the future. Another way is to talk a little walk. Getting away from the situation and giving yourself a chance to cool down is a great way to keep from exploding. Last but not least, my personal favorite, is to either eat or sleep or do both! Sometimes we get what we call 'hangry' which is when human's emotions are heightened because we are hungry. Lack of sleep can also shorten one's fuse. So, next time you need to chill out, go for a walk or hang with a friend and check out the deals that we here at Delta have planned for you for your next day at the range.

Thank Goodness For Mondays

I have never once heard someone say, "Thank goodness it is Monday!" and yet, today is national Monday day. In all honesty, Monday gets a really bad rap. From a fat orange cat telling us how much he hates them to people not liking them simply because it means that they have to go back to work. Mondays are not all bad though. Even though it is the start of the work week, it also means that you are one day closer to getting paid again. Also, Martin Luther King Jr. day, President's day, Memorial Day, and Labor day are all on Mondays this year, so that is another reason to like them! So, even if you don't like mondays, at least it is another day that you get an email with stellar deals from your favorite site to grab amazing products at low prices.

There are many people that do not like winter. I was talking to a friend the other day about how spring is only a few months away and how they can't wait until they can shoot outside in the warmth again. They then joked about what would happen if humans hibernated like other animals. Well, for those of you who don't like shooting out in the cold, there is an alternative other than an indoor range. Instead of storing away food for the winter like other animals, why not store away AR's and AR parts so that when spring and summer do come, you can emerge from your man cave full on ammo and accessories and have a huge shooting day with your friends and family as a way to celebrate that spring has finally come?

A friend of mine went out and tried snowboarding for the first time and, even though she lost a board, had a lot of fun. When asked why she decided to go snowboarding, she said that she went because she had set a resolution to try new things in the new year. I personally am not one for resolutions normally, but this is one that I can see a of people sticking to. It has a more fun ring to it instead of saying that they will change themselves altogether. So, whatever your resolution is this year, I hope it can bring you as much fun as Jenna had falling in the snow time and time again.

We were talking about what has happened in the last decade that we can remember being big and this is what we have come up with: the first gen Apple iPad came out in 2010, planking became a trend, the final book of Harry Potter came out, Gangnam Style was a huge hit, people thought the world would end in 2012, Harlem Shake became a thing, the song 'what does the fox say' took over, the ice bucket challenge happened, people fought over the colour of a dress, DiCaprio finally won an Oscar, Pokemon Go took over the world, fidget spinners became a trend, we finally got to see a black hole and so much more. Whatever life brings to you this next decade, we here at DTT hope it is a good one.

Fruitcake: Why is it traditional
Posted by Karri on 12/27/2019 to
General
If there is one thing about Christmas time that gets made fun of, it is fruitcake. That small hard "cake" that seems to be indestructible. In almost every show that I have watched, fruitcake is the constant butt of the joke in a Christmas episode. The history of the fruitcake is more fascinating than the actual cake itself. Dating all the way back to the Roman times, fruitcake is believed to be a way of preserving fruits since they are dried then pressed into a form with nuts and honey. Picking up popularity in Victorian England times, the fruitcake was often a dish only brought for special occasions. When the tradition was brought over, it because a symbol for the holiday season because the season holds a special place in all of our hearts and thus, so does fruitcake. I wanted to take the opportunity to draw your attention to our HOLIDAY SALE category on the website. Right now we have already slashed prices on products in that category and more will be added every day. So keep an eye both on the newsletters and on that category for more great deals to come.
