    Do you have first hand experience dealing with PSA customer service?

    You must not. Because if you did, you wouldn't be saying that.
    Why do the loudest do the least?

    Couple of years ago I built what I considered my dream build. DD S2W 18" barrel, Mega upper and lower, Samson Evo rail, LMT enhanced bolt with regular carrier, BCM large charging handle, Springco buffer spring, SSA-E trigger, Leoupold 2X9, Magpul CTR-L stock, Ergo Grip, etc.
    I made the mistake of ordering my lpk and buffer tube from PSA, thinking WTF, they can't screw that up. I still get pissed off every time I feel the grit when I pull back the charging handle compared to my other rifles. Even grittier are the take down pins.
    I don't care who the manufacturer is, if it's made to PSA specs IMHO it's shit.

    PSA is a 50/50 shot for me.

    Bought a complete rifle from them 2 years ago. Seemed to be terribly over gassed and has a terribly canted sight. Didn't bother with calling them...I sold it.

    Decided to give them another chance for a cheap build for the wife. Used their premium moe m4 kit. Everything appears to be perfect with this one. No canted sights, not horribly over gassed, etc. Functions fine with the limited shooting that's been done with it.

    For the same price, I'd wait for the BCM to come back on the market, PSA does a good job but BCM does it better.

    My PSA 20" SS CHF loves Hornady 75gr , both in 5.56 and .223 velocities, accuracy wise.... but dislikes Sierra and Nosler 77gr.

    I have tried dang near every OEM 77gr known to mankind.... but that barrel just doesn't like 'em.

    With that said it shoots everything else just fine.... loves Fed. Tipped Varmint 50gr and GECO 55gr FMJ.

    Good to see the PSA hater-ade is still alive and well. I'm a big PSA myself with 2 PSA Barreled uppers, 1 PSA lower, 2 more lowers using PSA lpks and my competition gun using mostly PSA parts. Both my PSA uppers shoot consistent 1.5 moa, 5 shot groups. I've got thousands of rounds through my PSA Premium Mid-length (which is also my patrol rifle for work) and my competition rifle. Most accounts of bad PSA experiences are either second hand or from the 2011 time range. My first experience with PSA was in 2013 and the worst thing I've ever suffered is long shipping times.

    I'd be surprised if you were unhappy with a PSA Premium of CHF upper. Even with that said, the only reason to buy a 20" upper is because you want the front sight base. Outside of that the selection is far too limited compared to the wealth of 18-20" barrels out there. I'll shoot moa with match ammo and 1.5 moa with bulk reloads all day long with my 20" upper. Far better to build from scratch than choose from limited factory options, unless plastic handguards and a front sight base are exactly what you want.

    The general consensus with PSA here is buy them or don't. Most people that have built rifles with their uppers seem to be happy with them, myself included. I personally run a BCM bcg in mine however. Are their better options? Yes. But I don't feel bad about my 14.7" CHF middy upper. I'd personally trust my life to it.
