I've seen threads here on there on completed 'builds' using PSA uppers and/or lowers with final pictures...but never any detail. I've set out to piece together a SBR using a PSA (FN barreled) upper + PSA lower and will update this thread with pictures and details as they become available. Unfortunately there was a mishap and today I received a 16" carbine gassed upper (instead of the 12"). Oh well, Kyle at PSA is great to work with and the 12" is already en route to me. Yes, I know there is grease everywhere. I'll clean the 12" up nice and pretty when it arrives. Please bear with me on the pictures, the wife's fancy camera is a pain in the ass.
While we wait, here's details on the 16"
http://palmettostatearmory.com/2261.php
4150 barrel
Chrome lined bore
1:7 twist
HPT/MPI
F marked FSB
Taper pins/parkd
M4 Feedramps
5.56 chamber
Arrives with conventional round hand guards, no pics but take my word for it, both have heat shields
What's wrong with this picture
F marked FSB
The other side
View of the chamber, note M4 feedramps are blended nicely into the receiver
View from the bottom, once lower receiver arrives I will get more pictures of fit
My apologies for not getting the barrel markings on this one. I did not have much time to take pictures before I had to get it boxed back up and taken to UPS. More detail to come once the stripped lower, NFA upper, and components arrive and are pieced together. Thought this would be a good basis of comparison for Palmetto State Armory in general since we get a look at a few of their products instead of just one.
ETA: Both uppers were ordered sans BCG, if anyone has detail pictures of a PSA BCG please post them.
rob s: No hard feelings if you don't take any of the above as gospel truth, but maybe PSA at some point could be added to the chart once you confirm for yourself?
