I had a friend bring me a PSA lower and upper to assemble yesterday.

Looking at it, it looks great and all parts and finish was very nice. It assembled with ease and looks very nice.

Only problem I had putting it together was the pistol grip was held on with a allen head screw and I did not have an allen head wrench at home long enough.

When PSA has another sale on lowers and kits, it will be my next purchase.

I am thinking a 20 incher with A3 flattop upper to go with my M4 that I already have.

I will tell all my friends that are looking to build one that PSA is good to go.

Was a lockwasher for the allen head screw included?

Yes it was. Like I said all parts were excellent, and fit and finish was right up there with Colt and FN and other top of the line AR's I have worked on.

I just need to buy a T handle allen wrench set I guess, as I am sure I will be seeing lots more of these.

Ive never got around to getting the proper tool for the grip bolt.  A flat head screw driver of the right size works just as well you dont have to torqe that enough to make a diff.  Maybe im just a cheap ass though

I'll agree with you, I was really impressed with the PSA lower and LPK I just got in. It feels good and has no defects. I was impressed to find the FCG packed in a lite coating of oil.

@Bharney, this was actually for a 3rd build for me which is an a3 flatop with 20inch barrel. It all goes together rather nicely :)

If I had that tool at the time, I would have used it.

The T-handle that came with my Memphis Shades windshield for my bike is the perfect fit and length.
