| How are the current 11.5 uppers now from PSA? I've read on here about them being over gassed and under gassed. I've got a pistol and carbine buffer in my extras box. |
Whenever there is any doubt, there is no doubt. That's the first thing they teach you.

 Failed To Load Title This one is from a few years ago, definitely not under gassed. H or H2 would be good unsuppressed. Mine was pretty darn accurate, too. |

I bought a 10.5 complete PSA upper, for my SBR lower, and it would not run. Double feeding with all mags. Came with an H2 upper. I dropped a spare Colt BCG in it, and it ran perfectly. I don't know what the problem is with the PSA BCG, and I don't care. It's going in the junk bin. |

These folks have several iterations of this pencil 11.5 and some of their A1 uppers have no forge marks and similar to early 603 square forge looking units if you like less forge flash to remove for colt builds. A bunch of their stuff isnt pencil barreled, I posted the wrong link first time.

What kind of accuracy are y'all seeing at 100 yds from the current 11.5 nitrided barrels from PSA? I have a 10.5 psa upper and accuracy I’ll says it’s consistent at hitting 10 in plate at 100 and can hit out to 200 pretty good. Although I really didn’t build it to be a 100 yard target gun. |
