Anybody have one of their uppers? This looks like a pretty good price.


Palmetto State Armory 14.5'' 5.56 CL 1/7 Upper

Looks like a good price. You should by two and give me one.

Uh......NO!


I wish they had them with a lightweight barrel.

my brother ordered one the day after they came out, i'll let you guys know how it turns out

update, the upper looks great according to my brother he went over everything and it all looked perfect until he tried mating the upper to a built lower he had. the upper receiver would not close to the rear. he called me and i told him to check it against 2 other AR15's. he did with the same results. i told him to contact PSA, they were great and e-mailed a return tag. they said they would fix the issue and overnight the upper back to him. so i say kudos to PSA, i have always had good service from them. i'll update when it actually get fired and see how it performs

Wonder what the problem is?

my brother described the issue as a upper that would not fit into the lower receiver. he said the front take down pin fit perfect, but when he would try to close the weapon the back of the upper receiver hit the area on the lower receiver above the rear take down pin and would not close to push the rear take down pin through. that's why i had him try his other 2 AR's, he stated that all his rifles would mate to his Rock river lower that was built for the upper he bought from PSA. sounded like the upper receiver was out of spec. , he stated that PSA said they have never heard of this, but would be happy to fix the issue. i have no doubt that PSA will handle everything and make it right
