I just bought a DSA marked Brass Aluminum Forging.  Are they any good?  Are they mil spec?

Yes they are fine.  I've seen Colts and Daniel Defense marked with the BA square.  I believe BCM also uses BA forgings, or have at one time...

Doesn't matter who the forger was if whoever finished it did a poor job.
