    What Concerns do you have with this upper?

    I normally buy high end uppers & parts and was looking for something to put together for the wife.
    What concerns would you have buying this upper??



    Not using the optic but as for a basic lower, why is this so darn cheap?

    TIA

    None

    Ask Palmeto why they are so cheap.

    Use Google

      It's a non chrome-lined barrel if you care about that. Since none of my rifles are likely to be used in the jungle or with corrosive ammo, I wouldn't have a problem with that upper, it's a screaming deal for a range toy.
      I'm retired. That's right, retired. I don't want to hear about the cop who stopped you today or how you didn't think you should get a ticket. That just makes me grumpy!

        I'm thinking, If the deal is too good to be true, it probably is not a good buy.

        Concerned about the little discloser I see....

          You don't need chrome lined barrels anyways and can shoot whatever you want just clean it good. Barrels are so cheap these days and would not hurt to have a few on hand.

            That mil spec thing is because all the parts are mil spec.

            They can not advertise the parts or violate their discount.

            Do some research....people have traced back where Palmetto gets their parts...you will be happy.

              Also a bit cheaper because there's no BCG or CH.

                  Obama ended the gun control debate when he decided to arm the Syrian rebels with fully automatic machine guns and rocket launchers. He proved people need guns to protect themselves from tyranny. Did he give the rebels background checks before giving them real assault weapons?

                    FWIW, they have the same upper with a Bushnell 1x32mm Red Dot

                    It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

                      No BCG or CH. Buy an IceArms BCG for $89 -10% for calguns members and CHs are about $25.

                        I ordered that last week. In another 2 weeks when PSA gets around to shipping it out and I actually get out to shoot it, I'll post a range report. For some reason I'm actually a little excited about it. I think I'll have a AR for less than $500 after I'm done.

                          What's the better scope. The strikefire or the bushnell?
