Yep, nothing fancy but hard to beat a functional AR for $300

I have been in their shop before, they make pretty good stuff

I have a AR10 and AR15 built from their stuff, worth the price paid.

This is timely. I received a lower for Christmas and was shopping around for build kits. I hadnt talked to anyone who built one with the PSA kits. Everyone is happy? Can't beat the price it seems.

With the current climate might consider one of their pistol builds. But yes PSA is worth it.

I have a couple PSA AR pistols. Definitely the way to go as far as building the pistol first. Still, if someone just wants to get their feet wet in the AR world, this is a good start.

PSA also had pistol kits for the same price or maybe $50 more.

Be warned, this most definitely is a rabbit hole that will suck you in.

Thanks for sharing, I've been wanting to complete my lower for years. I was waiting for the right deal and this was it.

This is normal pricing for PSA. Just be weary of the AR10s. I’ve owned three. 2 of the theee had issues. Solved the issues, but I could never trust them. The third one was amazingly accurate but it was the Px10, and I hadn’t seen any uppers for that model in a year so I sold it off. It was a lightweight AR10. Regular 10 parts didn’t fit it.

I own 3 of their complete rifles and pistols. I’m happy with the 15 line and I am buying a 300blk out next.
I’ve also found it more economical to buy complete lowers and complete uppers and pair them vs buying their completed rifles or their kits.

I have one of their 300blk pistols. Just got my can not too long ago... Shooting subsonic makes me giggle

I remember reading somewhere that it's something like a 10% increase in price for a complete gun. Something to do with state or federal taxes

Just ordered one, thanks for the heads up! Seems like a good starter AR for me and a friend who also bought one.

I think I'd go with one of these...

PSA 16" M4 Carbine-Length 5.56 NATO 1:7 Nitride 15" Lightweight M-Lok Freedom Rifle Kit - 5165450473

or this Magpul version:

PSA 16" 5.56 NATO 1:7 Midlength Nitride 13.5" Lightweight M-Lok MOE EPT Rifle Kit w/ MBUS Sight Set

Sometimes I hate the 'deal forums' Thanks for the post, never have built one but wanted to try it before.

 

[SEtoNWHunter]

Just ordered this one. Prices are unbelievably low. I think it's safe to say these are the "good ol days"....
