    PSA Classic vs Premium Classic Lower Build Kit?

    Anyone have experience with either? Any major differences? These kits include everything you need to complete a stripper lower, not just the LPK.

    I think the buffer tube is different
    Premium=7075 aluminum
    Classic= 6061 aluminum
    I'm sure someone else will chime in

      Im using the premium LBK. no idea what the difference is, i only got the premium because it was 79.99.

      Yes, it has everything to turn a stripped lower into a complete lower. mine runs flawless, though i did end up swapping out the stock for a magpul.

        What Devilmonkey said, plus the stock has QD sling attachment points on the premium.

        That's pretty much it, the only reason the premium might be cheaper than the classic is because of the sale.

          If you're in Kali, get the one that includes a bullet button instead of the regular mag release; it's $20 cheaper or so.

            +1. You also get the Black PSA buffer with PSA logo.

              Go on eBay, they can be had for $5. I bought and installed the premium for my first build. Highly recommended.

                Complete kit for 80$? Can't be true. If so I would love to know where.

                    I thought those were a rip-off of the original design and you were considered a complete and total a-hole for buying it. Has something changed?

                      Right now the Classic is $109 and the Premium is $119.

                      Last Christmas I caught the sale of the classic LPK with BB, and the classic stock kit as separate items. Both were $80.

                      You should check it out that way. The PTAC LPK come in a MOE version with grip and trigger guard.

                        That's your opinion and you're entitled to that opinion.

                        In my original comment, I was referring to the bullet button being bought on eBay for cheap and how I own and bought the premium directly from PSA, but I figured it was implied. With that said, I couldn't justify spending $15+ for the bullet button elsewhere.

                        I guess the question I'd like to ask you is, "why are people like me considered an a**hole for mentioning eBay, when the intent of my reply was to help a fellow member decide one product over another?"

                        I'm glad that the majority of the community I've interacted with never bashed me if I did or said something wrong. Just point it out and be constructive with your criticism. Point out the issue and don't attack someone's character simply because they don't share your views. However, that's just my opinion on how I would've handled it.
