Palmetto State Armory

[HICKMAN]

Have to admit, I haven't really heard much about these guys.

Thinking about going this way for an AR build unless I just buy a complete rifle.

Any opinions? I'd like to hear all, good and bad or issues you've heard about from other owners.

Like most, money is limited, so I want to make sure I don't make a mistake.

PSA is G2G. Shipping is alittle slow but they have allot of orders to fill.

Buy the upper and lower separate and save some money overall.

There has been lots of chatter here on the board regarding PSA.

In summary, they have good specs for the money, but they are largely untested in the long-term. I'd give a cautionary recommendation based on INGOers reviews. They'd make a great first rifle.

I would highly recommend PSA. I've been nothing but happy with my build.

I can only attest to the quality of the PSA parts that I own and that would be a stripped lower receiver and a LPK. Both the receiver and the LPK have more than met my expectations and I have zero complaints.

I really like that rifle. I'm going to move a little money around and contact them about a mock dissipator kit this week.

i really like my SS middy; far more accurate than me. My complaint is the customer service...they dont answer the phone consistently, I've never received an email with tracking info, I really got the runaround trying to get my FFL on file (even though another INGOer used this FFL to buy a rifle from them that same year).

I think PSA is experiencing some growing pains. Despite any of the problems I may have had, I would still order from them again. ymmv.

 

[WyldeShot]

+1 for PSA. I purchased a whole AR from PSA on Black Friday. I've been very happy with it so far. They are top notch when you look at their specs and compare to others for the same price. As others have mentioned their customer service could be a little better.

 

[pirate]

Built one from parts. Never have any issues with it.

 

[DEC]

They are excellent. I own one complete PSA rifle, and two built PSA lowers. Great stuff.

This is just about exactly what I have in mind

I just ordered a LPK and upper on the 17th to go with a PSA lower that I picked up locally. The parts haven't shipped yet, but once they do I'll give a review.

I like my ar I built with mostly psa parts. However, a week ago I ordered some ammo, buffer kit, and grip. No tracking number yet. I need these parts by saturday for the nwi AR build party.

I got 3 lowers at the $50 labor day sale, and they were nice enough to get me 3 sequentially numbered units for my dad, my older brother, and myself. Setting up an AR for dad's 60th in a few months, so I built his up using the basic lower build kit, and everything looks and feels great. Still figuring out what the plan is for the upper, but my brother and I are looking close at the PSA uppers.

My last PSA order I received the email saying my order has shipped two hour AFTER the box arrived at my door.

I don't know if that is PSA's fault or USPS's.

I really like that rifle. I'm going to move a little money around and contact them about a mock dissipator kit this week.

Thanks.

I really like this setup. It's very versatile.

My PSA mock dissy build.
I have nothing but great things to say about PSA.

PM me with your online order number and I'll look into this for you.

 

[HICKMAN]

how awesome is that?

I didn't even know PSA was here.

Was just down in Columbia at Fort Jackson a couple of weeks ago.

They put out some nice stuff, ive shot a couple rifles guys have built using their products. An fit, finish, function, was spot on. I would have no problem going with their products.
