Question:  Received my Patrol Carbine and noticed that the upper was not stamped with the PSA logo.  PSA appears to offer two variations, the Complete Upper and Stripped Unmarked Upper - are they the same minus logo??  From description they appear to be.  

Any feedback would be appreciated.  If its just a case of logo missing no biggie....

thx!

I have ordered three uppers and the firts was all black, the second had white t-markings and the third had white t-markings and a white palmetto logo.  Maybe i missed something when I ordered them.. idk?

Some of the Patrol rifles were made without logo'ed uppers.  The uppers were the same otherwise.

yea, and i have one of the uppers with the PSA logo and its just not that bright ( can almost not see the cross cannons at all if well oiled) They're the same other than logo as psa said.  I think its laser etched so it is real light on mine...

I have 2 of the logo uppers and 3 of the non logo uppers and they are clearly not the same upper. The logo upper is a Anchor Harvey Aluminum forging with fine t-markings and a smooth finish. The no logo upper is a BAFE forging with very course t-marks with  sloppy white paint. The M4 feed ramps are also cut shallow and slightly canted to one side. Both styles function just fine and I have no complaints about them at all. But yes there is a difference. Hope this helps.

I have 3 uppers from PSA.  
The first was received early this year - a pistol kit with logo and T marks - Anchor Mfg.
The second was a summer maddness upper - no logo or T marks - slightly shorter/shallower feed ramp cuts - Square logo = Brass Aluminum Mfg.
The the third was just received this week - No logo, bolder T Marks (but still neat) than the logo upper I received. slightly shorter/shallower feed ramp cut - also Brass Al. mfg.

other than these slight differences, they are identical.  Fit and finish all all three are great.  Very happy customer
