I have two Palmetto State Armory PA 15s, same make and model one has what looks like laser engraved in white 1/7 NATO 5.56 on the barrel, the other gun has 1/7 NATO 5.56 stamped into steel of the barrel, are they the same barrels, made by the same manufacturer?

That's really not enough information to tell you anything. What SKU did you purchase? Were they purchased as full rifles? If so - link?

They are complete rifles still in the box. Bought them at near by gun shop.

Are the barrels chrome lined or are you able to tell? If they are the bare bones M4gery then they are either the PA Freedom line or the premium line that uses barrels made by FN. If they have older stock, they may have had the PSA Classic rifles - though I don't remember who made those barrels.

They're random. Some uppers do have the logo, some uppers don't.

?

Is there a particular reason you dont ask PSA?

I would bet that they're not manufactured by the same company if one is laser and one is rollmarked.

both of the Freedom uppers my buddy bought had the white laser engraved markings, all the other barrels(CHF, Premium, and a CL non premium) I've gotten from PSA are engraved

OP, you could ask in Palmetto's Industry Forum.  If a company has a forum here, you can expect to get a pretty fast response from them on technical matters like this.
