Wow this is really tempting...

Any idea on the quality of these? Price seems too cheap pass up

Was thinking the same. Does the brake needs to be replaced?

wow that is awefully cheap... what gives?

Good quality, although barrel isn't chrome lined. Flash suppressor and bayo lug need to be removed, and brake or comp pinned and welded on....

Thinking of buying this as well.  May I asked where you brought yours for the brake or comp pinned/welded?

I haven't got around to it yet but ill be bringing it to mikes sporting goods on rt 38. Only 5 minutes from my house and charges $40. was told 1 week turnaround time though.

Great i'm not too far from Mike's.  So just making sure you ended up buying SKU: 39236 for $199 correct?  Thanks

This does sound too good to pass up...I may have to start my first build

These sales actually got me to do my first build.  Picked up a spikes lower from MonmouthArms and picked up the lower parts kit from PSA as well.  Now just trying to figure out what to do with the upper.

The only thing slowing me down is all the Christmas bills, otherwise I would have ordered something already.

No the one I ended up buying was the PSA premium upper with Strikefire optic, It was $369 during their black Friday sale. hopefull they are still running these kinds of deals in a month or two because I have a second build I'd like one for....

I got a Comp off ebay (YHM) for $36 shipped and cut the bayo lug myself, so its not to bad at all.

Before ordering take a read through this:  http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_5/1567886_Take_a_look_at_these_pics_and_tell_me_what_you_think_of_this_AR_vendor_s_product_UPDATE_Muzzle_pics.html&page=1.  If you read later in the thread several other people were also having similar problems with these PTAC barrels.  I guess you get what you pay for...

DAMNNNN some of them look ROUGH!

I posted a couple of weeks ago that I was wondering why like 75% of offerings I see now say "blemished".

 

I am 100% convined now that blemished is a strategic business strategy because they can sell stuff at a lower price but you are not allowed to return it. Basically it assures that all sales are final which in the retail world is like printing gold.

 

(and before any reputable dealers here flame me I'm sure there are a fair amount of great quality parts that get offered as blemished, what I really mean is that when I see 75% of listings from a company and they are always blemished something smells rotten. But actually it's retail genius if you think about it)

Do these uppers have to be shipped to an ffl or can you just get them shipped straight to your home?

They can go straight to your home...a firearms is considered the part with the Serial number. Anything else is just parts.

Cool when are these coming back?

Does psa ship these to nj even with the flash hider?

Any idea what page the important stuff is on?

 

 

edit: looks like page 8 has a nice barrel pic..  Man i need to go home to check mine now.  I hope its ok, i have had it for over a year so i doubt they would do anything about it anyway..  I think mine was the Spikes complete upper, so i dont think it was the same barrel....
