He guys just looking for some opinions on these 2, they are real close in price and I'm on a budget so I've  narrowed my next upper down to these 2 any thoughts?

I'm pretty sure Spikes uses FN barrels just like PSA.

If I could afford Bcm prices right now I'd buy Daniel defense anyways.

What's your budget?  BCM has a relatively affordable M4 upper

I've 2 psa 16"  CHF carbine uppers at home now and I'm happy with them

Their on sale  $349.99 and free shipping right now, plus I saw a premium bolt carrier group and charging handle combination for$99.99 plus  $8.50 shipping

It will do what you want. Check the 1911 forum out, I did a writeup of my 1st 1 at the 4500 round mark yesterday  .

Both Spikes and PSA use FN barrels for many of their uppers, though they each have both CHF and non-CHF models in their catalog.

Generally speaking I would go for the CHF barrel if the prices are close, though I would VERY closely inspect the PSA upper with a rear sight and bore sight to be sure the FSB is properly installed as they are well known for some crappy sight installs, canted FSBs, etc.

Exactly...or you could buy a bcm upper without bcg, then grab a colt/psa bcg on the EE.
