    For those interested, Palmetto has two under $500 deals for flat top uppers with BCG and CH included. One is a mid-length upper, the other a "premium" carbine upper. They had the $299 special back this morning, but its gone already. I don't know and/or vouch for the quality of these uppers/parts, so caveat emptor.

    You have to wonder how they make any money selling complete uppers for $299. I guess everyone has excess inventory after the frenzy died out.

    Maybe they just do it to draw extra traffic? I know for sure big commercial stores like Wal-Mart do this all the time ... sell some products at a loss just to get people in the store.

    Well that's possible, but their new PTAC line seems to be the loss leader. I know there has been some chatter on other forums asking what kind of QC and materials are being used. If anyone gets one of their PTAC uppers and/or other components, I'd be curious to see what kind of review or thoughts they could post about them.

    I recently picked up several of their "PTAC 5.56 Full Auto Bolt Carrier Group with Charging Handle".

    They look very nice, with good machining. The gas key staking is the best, most consistent I've ever seen. They look better than many factory BCG's I've owned.

    There are no indications that they are MP tested, but they claim to use the right materials.

    Of course it's impossible to tell if a component like this is truly quality until it's been thoroughly tested. It will be some time before I can vouch for that.

    I'll take some photos when I have time.

    Got my PSA order today. 2 Blem Lowers, which looked fine, but then they sent me 6061 Receiver Extensions when I ordered 7075...but then threw in 2 LPK's I didn't order... *sigh* ... PSA I will likely not order from you again.

    Mix ups can be good or bad. When I ordered a QMS from PSA they sent me an ACT.

    My last 2 orders have been messed up and the fact that both took 3 weeks to get to me and then send them back and another week or two to get my order right...screw that i say also..have ordered little parts in the past from white oak armament and always fast shipping and cheap shipping..

    I have wrote off PSA for a while also..

    They must like me better than you guys I've received 3 separate perfect orders recently from PSA, with only a short wait and I am more than happy with the products. Sucks to hear y'all are having trouble with them. They've been great for me.

    I can understand the frustration with PSA in the last 18 months, but like MoxyDave, I've just had good luck. I usually only order ammo from them, but my last order was 1K of 5.56/.223 and a couple of .308 PMags. I couldn't check the order until Xmas, and everything was fine. While it may take a week to process, as long as I plan ahead, I end up with what I ordered.

    PTAC BCG Photos

    This one's been greased up a little since it was already installed, but you can see they look pretty legit:
