Took my 16" PSA Hammer Forged Upper back out today for some function check.. (after I realized cutting my hammer spring in my lower was not a good idea and I was getting LIGHT primer hits about 1/15 rounds..)  

the setup.. DPMS Lower, Hogue, MagPul MBUS, UAG Quad, Primary Arms M3 (3MOA only) Red Dot.. YHM 5M2 Brake..

Federal AE 223 55gr FMJ.. and PMC XTAC 62gr LAP (Green-Tip)..  



PSA Video #3 from today at 9am.. (approx 2mins).. bag and kneeling

the targets.. I still need work, when NOT on a front bag..

100 yards with front Caldwell Bag.. (as shown in video)



then 100 yards with 4 shots from 6x32 NCStar scope on UTG rings.. and Federal AE 223 55gr FMJ.



then another 100 yards with the Primary Arms M3 3MOA RDS and front Caldwell Bag..



50 yards kneeling.. with 300 yard rapid fire.. reduced for 50 yard target..



then my FBI QIT reduced target at 100 yards... while kneeling and standing.. (its got a 12" wide torso FWIW)..



still need more work with standing and kneeling..

overall a VERY GOOD day.. everything was 100% with 140 rounds shot in about 40 mins..

now at about 800 rounds thru the upper.. NOW I feel its reliable..

thanks..

though PSA may not please ALL the crowd on here.. customer service is KEY, and a QUALITY product makes a good combo..

just ordered another 400+ rounds of ammo for next weekends fun.. some Fed XM193 and more XTAC 62gr M855..  

range confirmed I can BANG my AR500 steel targets.. so next outing I will be knockin them also..  

I decided to leave it just like it is (for now) and just start buying ammo again.. (for it and my 308AR)



going to work on my stance and kneeling as I figure I would need that more for the 'Zombies'..

I haven't dealt with PSA but they must be doing something right. Too much positive feedback to deny it. Don't worry what anyone else thinks.

You have addressed the minor issue you had and all appears good now. You are one of the few that have provided something beyond "I put 100 rounds through my PSA." so the info is appreciated. Keep it coming.

I hope they are as good as they appear to be. Can't have too many quality suppliers out there. Nice to see someone have some good parts in stock.
