If they are local, go check them out. Ask about the barrel (ie who makes them, what twist what grade steel, chrome lining, ect) and then check the Bolt Carrier Group to see if it's staked, FA or Semi auto carrier, and if the bolt is MPI tested.
A couple of years ago, expecting these kinds of quality in a $600 rifle would have been ridiculous, but these days those details are not out of line at all. |

Tacoma, huh. Boy that's close to Tumwater.
Everything I've heard about Aero's stuff is that it's good to go. |

The barrel is 4140 steel, but it is chrome lined. Their BCG's don't say what steel or any testing methods. The company isn't local, just the shop that sells them. Maybe I should go fondle it.

Hi, just wondering if anybody has any experience or knowledge about Aeroprecision complete rifles? Aero Precision does not market complete rifles. Just uppers and lowers and they are good to go. |

If not, how about a link???

Looks like you are right. They are Aero Precision upper and lower recievers with other manufacturers parts put together by SAA. 
Anybody have any experience with these rifles? |

Anybody have any experience with these rifles? No prob. This has question has come up before. I have an AP upper and lower and can tell you that they are superb parts in both fit and finish. SAA's assemblies will be as good as the sum of the parts that they are using. Example.... They had been using DPMS LPK's so your chances of getting a gritty trigger go up if they're still using these. Glad to see that they're moving away from the Tapco furniture. |
