I have never used them but have heard good things about the lowers.
I don't know too much about the complete uppers or rifles. The only negatives I have heard is that they cost is really low and they go on sale cheaper than any other metal lower. People are suspicious of low priced items. |

Cuz you're not an operator.
You have to be able to operate for the operation while operating the operational equipment.

How are those polished trigger groups? I have CMC, Geissele, Hiperfire or similar in all mine... but need to try one of those LaRue's.
I have a spare upper coming in that'll replace one of my other non-CHF ones... that 18" .223 Wylde 1:8 CHF. Ordered MBUS PRO LR's but only received the front sight so far. Will get a Warne Xskel, Viper PSTII 1-6, and a Lantac E-BCG. Should work fine. BCG's getting hard to find on PSA... everyone must be more worried about looting than they were about Covid. |

PSA uppers are better than Combat Armory uppers, and a hair better than Bear Creek Arsenal (with CHF barrels, much better than BCA).
If it is not a billet upper, I personally look at forge codes. Other than an AR with age, most AR uppers these days have 1 of 3 forge codes. Keyhole (Cerro Forge), Square (Brass Aluminum Ent.), and Splintered A (Anchor Harvey). I believe Anchor Harvey has been in the AR forging business the longest. Lower End Brand AR uppers use Keyhole, Mid to Mid High uses Square, and High End uses Splintered A. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk |

Go for 458 Socom. Expensive to shoot if you don't reload but designed as real stopper.
HistoryEdit Inspired by the lack of power offered by the 5.56 NATO cartridge used in the M4 carbine and the M16 rifle, the .458 SOCOM came about from informal discussion of members of the special operations community, specifically Task Force Ranger's experience that multiple shots were required to neutralize members of the opposing force in Mogadishu during Operation Gothic Serpent. Marty ter Weeme designed the cartridge in 2000 and Tony Rumore of Tromix was contracted to build the first .458 SOCOM rifle in February 2001. https://military.wikia.org/wiki/.458_SOCOM |

I've purchased some nice uppers and lowers from PSA. IME, they are not the bottom of the barrel.

My new PSA is going to be doing serious cuddling as I carry it from my trunk to the range table and lay it on a soft plush blanket and then back to the car trunk to lounge in its foamy tactical looking import rifle case. I hope it performs as well as the tier ones that are not hobby grade. Those things really operate in the suburbs.

So, any examples of what you are looking at? Test: What are the 3 lengths of gas systems?

Just to add a few more data points. I recently picked up a PSA kit and the upper has a split A forge code. My Daniel Defense and BCM built uppers both have square forge codes.

I prefer a 16" with a mid length, but that's just me. Stainless or nitride or chromed for the barrel?
