Question on palmetto state armory uppers

[kwelz]

So no reason related to the overall quality of the product?

QC checks are possibly one of the most critical parts of product quality. I don't care what materials a company uses if they don't take pride int he final product they ship out the door. People get to caught up in a check list of parts and materials and forget that if the company putting out the product doens't bother to have a good QC check at the end then it is no better than using crap materials from the start.

Getting onions on your burger has something to do with the beef supplier?

The person doing the final inspection of the box has nothing to do with the guy running the CNC machine.

Shipping a mid-length upper with a carbine gas tube sure qualifies as a quality issue in my book.

Did the rifle function properly?

If the rifle functioned as it was supposed to, that is a shipping and receiving issue, and not a an issue with the grade of steel, issue with the CNC machines,,,,,,.

You can not tell me you have never opened the wrong can of beans, or the wrong kind of corn, or bought the wrong type of batteries.

Accidents happen. If you have a belly button, sooner or later you are going to make a mistake.

Ok now I am convinced you are just trying to mess with us....
A middy with a carbine gas tube will not function.

So the gas tube was what, 3 inches short and not connected?

If so, then that is a quality control issue.

The gas tube issue was almost a year ago and affected what 3 rifles? At least that problem was easy to diagnose.

You may have misunderstood. It was sold as a complete upper, not multiple line-item parts that were fulfilled as individual parts of a larger order.

I agree huge issue. But 1 issue out of a total of what sampling? My guess is the % is very low.

Holy crap, the people complaining sound like my exwife. Do one thing wrong and she never lets you live it down.
