PSA is good to go, only big complaints about PSA is their shipping CAN be slow sometimes.

PSA is a Fair Entry level AR9, They use less expensive parts to keep the cost down, I had trouble with their barrels not feeding some types of ammo, They do not have LRBHO, they run 5.5oz buffers, when most people use 7.5oz, If after a while you decide to do some upgrades, It's easy to spend a couple of hundred dollars, So $750 and getting one with upgrades isn't unreasonable, If your just looking for a range toy and not planning on using it for Home Defense or anything else, They are good to go. I want to make it clear I'm not bashing PSA, Many a Part I have ordered from them.

I’ve used quite a bit of PSA stuff.
They are GTG. More than likely, the gun shop build will be loaded with the cheapest parts they can find. PSA has excellent customer service and offers a lifetime warranty to boot.

I've used a lot of PSA stuff for past AR builds and never had a problem, however I'm quite new to the whole AR9 world, including PSA's offerings. "Gen 4" huh? What were the issues with Gens 1-3 that they apparently fixed with their Gen 4?
They have an 8" Gen 4 upper I've been looking at for a while, I'd like to know the backstory a little before pulling the trigger. |

There may be other changes, but the biggest one was the 'PCC Specific' chamber. i.e. longer throats so you can run different/heavy/coated bullet profiles while not having to load dangerously short.

Is promising to me... most all previous 9MM BCG's ( regardless of brand ) wouldn't fully reset most after market triggers because of the ramped portion of the BCG and the tip of the aftermarket hammer not being a full height profile.. hopefully this Gen 4 has a slightly altered ramp profile. And while that did limit the aftermarket triggers that would work... it also is kind of a good thing, shorter reset triggers in a blow back action can be unpredictable. Even more so if your firearm has any bolt bounce... so I also strongly prefer a dead blow buffer rather then a solid buffer. |
