I keep seeing that name pop up, but I would like some verified reviews. Very low cost sometimes equals headaches.

I got one from JSE. It's been good to go. They use DPMS parts,  though,  and they get a lot of hate these days.

Surplus Ammo and Arms has a few options as well.

Happy with my Mas Defense upper after I broke it in with a few hundred rounds/ cycling the bolt.

I mistakenly picked an HBAR barrel but it feels pretty good. I'll eventually go light weight/m4 profile.

Very tempting, but I'm leery of PTAC barrels.

That seems too good to be true, has anyone ever used one?

Thanks for fixing the link for me...

I have owned the palmetto and redx 7.5" pistol also and they are great running guns. I like the handguard on the Blackrock Tactical better.

Mine came in today from Karri's. USPS apparently opened the box and inspected the contents. Knifed through the tape and folded open a corner.
Had to sign for it.
It did come VERY fast. it arrived yesterday but I missed delivery and had to go to the post office to get it.

The phosphate finish looks OK. There is a blob of some kind of glue on it but I'm not troubled by it. The chamber looks to be phosphate finished as well. All black inside. It;ll do for the price I think. Assembly in a few weeks after I buy a bolt, KAK and a gasblock

Those Karis look good, subscribing to follow, because I am broke and need/want a 7.5 for fun.

PSA isn't "mid grade".

The companies you need to look at for that level would be RRA, Stag, Spikes, etc.

Does anyone have a pic of that blackrock upper? Their website isn't showing it at the moment. I have my lower built and am on the edge of buying a budget upper. Karri's and Red X are at the top of my list at the moment.I'm leaning toward the Karri's because I like the quad rail handguard and the Phantom flash hider, but I do like the stainless barrel on the Red X too. Anything else I should look at?

I hope to have a BlackRock Tactical 7.5" WYLDE upper in my hands this Saturday.  Been waiting for the 1x7 twist WYLDE barrel.

Then I will have to figure out how to post pictures.....
