PSA Conplete Uppers - $399

[dreadpirate]

my whole rifle was built with PSA parts... Seems great to me, a nice A4gery

And I have a PSA stripped lower and an upper on the way. May go ahead and get the $99 BCG after all.

I saw this one and was thinking about picking it up. Relatively new to AR's. Is this a good deal, quality, etc?

I ordered a the PSA 5.56mm Full-Auto Profile BCG and a PSA CHF 14.7'' 5.56mm 1:7 Carbine Length M4A1 Profile upper when they were both on sale last Thursday.. The BCG was $139 and the upper was $299 (can't really beat that). The BCG arrived Tuesday and tracking says the upper is arriving this afternoon. This is the fastest anything has arrived from PSA for me.

In June my wife and I flew to FL to visit my family and we drove home.. on the way home we stopped by Spikes and PSA. PSA had a shit ton of inventory in their store.. Spikes not so much but it was cool to walk through and see everything.

30mins from PSA we stopped by the UFO Welcom Center also. It looked like it was closed.

I have been doing a lot or reading; but am not an "expert" per se. But, PSA seems to me to be a great value for a solid product. I think Larue and Bravo Company Mfg (http://www.bravocompanyusa.com/) are more top of the line if you want to pay the price. Colt is also tops, if you can find one!

Anyways, I am building a mid level AR with PSA components. I have another stripped lower receiver I will put more money into next year.

There is a pretty good thread on this site about AR products and manufacturers; I don't have the link but hunt around for it.

Interesting read. That was 2009... Any idea where the argument has gone and if the "improved bolt design" was proven?

$420 for a mid-length 14.7" with a pinned/welded flash hider.

Seems to have the Carpenter 158 bolt, but the carrier may be 8620.

I got a PSA lower kit with magpul stock and grip... thinking about getting the complete "blemished" lower with FDE components for $299

I've only ever seen 8620 carriers. The bolt has to either be carpenter 158 or 9310. I have yet to see a 9310 carrier
