Many of us, including myself, received the PSA logo on our midlength madness upper.

yes I know, but if you read the thread on this like a week ago, PSA said that they werent supposed to, but they just happened to have them in the first batch of shipments.

The madness uppers are not supposed to have logos. Apparently some incorrectly shipped with a PSA marked upper. Customers who wanted an unmarked upper can exchange them for unmarked if they desire.

This customer was happy with the surprise logo. So no need to exchange mine.

My madness upper has a logo but I like it. More to the point, are there more coming at the "Madness" price point? Or, can we get the madness pricing on the logoed ones in stock?

Looks like the lunacy has ended

It will just take me a bit longer to finish my builds with CHF uppers. Thanks for the Mid length madness PSA. I think you have made a lot of people happy with such an awesome sale. Myself included. Keep up the good work.

My Midlength Madness upper came with a logo and a 6.8 barrel.

It also came with a blow off by customer service. I promise you that I'll stop inconveniencing you folks with my orders from today forward.

Hope you can get your BCG soon. GL

Generally speaking I prefer logo-less uppers, but the 20" madness upper I ordered is going on a PSA lower with a PSA BCG, so if it comes marked it won't bother me one bit.

Sorry to hijack but I have an "are these the same" question as well. Besides the CHF are these the same and is it worth the extra $90? One says "not pencil" but is the other.

One is not Cold hammer forged. To some it may not matter. I prefer it because I drive my gear pretty hard with less love. For $50 bucks it is worth it to me. I do not notice a function difference. Both are great barrels.

Could you expand on "pretty hard with less love"? How much stronger we talking?

Retarded Strong..... I know that is not helpful. I am trying to push this product to the limits of its functionality along with other newer, slicker products. I run it to a failure point. Pardon the vagueness, but I want to do a total review of this product at a later date. So far, we are doing better than expected. Both the CHF and the non-CHF are performing better than expected. Very little difference in accuracy.
