I've been goin back and forth and can't decide what I wanna do.

Option 1 (was original plan)
Spikes 14.5 middy with NiB bcg and vortex fh that aimsurplus offers(when in stock, them seem to go fast)

Option 2
14.5 hammer forged middy rifle kit from PSA
(I also like this idea bc for basically the same price as the spikes I will get an extra lpk and stock kit, that I can stash away, seein as I have a complete lower ready to go, spikes zombie lower with spikes elpk, and ctr stock if you were wondering)

Thnks for any input.

Both are good choices.  Extra parts are nice, but in reality, I think you could just flip a coin.  For what it's worth, I think the general concensus around here is to rate Spikes just a notch above PSA.

Also look here Rio Grande Arms.  It looks like you can actually put together a semi-custom upper from manufacturers such as Spikes, Daniel Defense, and BCM.  In which case I would have to rank DD and BCM above the spikes.  I believe you get a cold hammer forged barrel with the DD (mine is) and I know that BCM offers it but it is not always standard.

Thnks for the link, honestly flippin a coin is prob wat I'll end up doing most likely what ever they got in stock when I'm ready to order I will go with, have considered bcm as well. Like u said I can't go wrong with any of these mfg.

+1 for RioGrandeArms. Had my upper assembled and delivered in a week. Top notch parts and excellent customer service.
