yep really...that happened.
3 uppers out of the batch of 3000. lets put things into contex here.
All three were resolved and PSA started to test fire every upper now since that happened.
Is not consistant form from them. It was a one time floof.
But I know nay sayers will fling that out of their sleeve any chance they get......

Ok... now the gas tube thing is
I now have a Bias on the PSA topic.
(maybe they hired that guy here who tried to convert his carbine to a middy)

I agree it gets a little thick in here at times. And to be honest if I needed a carbine right now I would still probably take a look at a sale from PSA. But the initial reports from this company's offerings were really good and their prices amazing. Now we see post after post of crap that is sullying to a good name and in business that is really all you have sometimes is a name.
It is disappointing to see not only the quality of workmanship but more importantly how they handled it, twice apparently. I am sure it will get fixed but again it is disappointing as it is all totally preventable.
I don't get these discussions. If you're talking about whether PSA/Spikes/whatever is 'as good as' brand X (BCM/DD/Colt/etc), then you've missed the point. Why screw around with Unknowns?!? We KNOW certain makers produce reliable products. Why would you purposely take a detour away from something know to be excellent?!?
If there were a shortage, I'd understand. If the price difference was measured by four figures, I'd understand.

Because they were substantially cheaper. The price made it attractive and they knew it. Penetration (HA) pricing strategy.
Got a stripped 12" upper for $360. Can't find that anywhere else I don't think? With BCMs BCG and a Centurion Rail...it may become one of my favorite uppers. But, judging by things I've heard, not sure if I'd consider em in the future for anything but a stripped lower.
