    PSA is solid, from the pieces/parts I have gotten from them. Decent prices in direct buy from them as well.

    Great company. Their website can use a little work, but other than that they are gtg. I just built another AR using their lower build kit.

    The only complaints people have with PSA is slow shipping times. The hardware is good.

    This was definitely the case back in Nov - Jan. However, I have family members that have recently ordered things that have arrived at the FFL within 48 hours. I've heard they've gotten much faster! :thumbsup:

    Shipping isn't the best out of the bunch but at least they admit on the front page.

    Their customer service blows. My order took forever. They don't respond to emails. It took 3 shipments to get my order. I was still missing parts from the order even after it was "complete"... Never again

    I made 3 orders with them in the last month. I was jumping on deals as they came up before they sold out. LPK and accessories shipped next day, Strikefire and accessories shipped in a week, upper took a full 3 weeks. At one point I emailed CS a question and it took a day and a half for a response. All packages were packed well and contained everything expected. Overall I am VERY pleased and will be buying from them again!

    ETA - Just realized my post might sound snarky coming right after honda's... I have heard more than one person echoing honda's experience in the past and was reluctant, but seems like they might be improving as of late.

    My biggest problem with PSA is that they have so many sales I've spent a small fortune there.

    Yes, they have lost track of my order and "completed" an order that was not complete (among other things). They have always fixed the problem. They used to respond to emails promptly, but imagine the volume of orders they must be getting right now. This is a small business that is doing its best to keep up with an unprecedented run on their products. Jacking up their prices as many others have could probably help bring order volume down so they could catch up - but they haven't.

    With PSA, keep an eye on your order and exercise a little patience - or go pay four times as much from CTD. Your choice.

    EDIT: I've built several PSA ARs and have never had a problem. In fact, my PSA builds are the least finnicky about ammo. I haven't found a load they don't like yet.

    Totally unrelated except that it's PSA:

    Checking my credit card statements online, just to make sure I'm not spending myself broke on ammo :) I noticed the way my bank assigns categories to every purchase. Two of my recent entries?
