Bought one, set it up on my DPMS lower and took it to the range yesterday. Fired 400 rounds of handloads using SS109 on top of varget. It grouped about 5" with 15 shots fired at 100yds using a Comp ML2, not too bad with for a 4MOA dot I suppose. I forgot my sled so I had to make due with my range bag. Function wise, not a single hiccup. The PSA bolt was TIGHT. When disassembling it to clean it prior to the range trip I had a hell of a time putting the bolt back into the carrier. It got a good cleaning and then a coat of oil and off we went. It was a warm 80ish degrees with some mild-strong gusts of wind, but still a good day for this area.
I didn't get a picture of my target I shot with my 3-9x Vortex Diamondback with the SS109 before the wind ripped it off and blew it to the next state, but it was grouping about 2" at 100yds with 12 rounds fired. I never got a chance to look at it up close, only through the optic.
The finish matches up perfect with my DPMS lower. I am also using the PSA lower parts kit in this rifle, only thing I changed were the trigger and hammer springs to the JP 3.5# springs. PMags still fit a little tight in the DPMS mag well, but GI mags move freely through.
Again, Zero malfunctions in 400 rounds fired. Looked like the best I could do was about 2 MOA with a magnified optic and 5MOA with a CompML2 red dot.
I've never used the magpul MOE furniture before, I've always used either knights rails, midwest rails, or original guards and grips. But this MOE stuff is comfortable! The gun weighed in at just over 6lbs unloaded, so it should be just over 7lbs with a full 30rd magazine. Total build cost: $675 (already had the aimpoint and rear MBUS from another rifle that has since retired.)
Upper - $450
Lower - $90
Lower Build Kit - $125
JP Springs - $10
Bottom line: Another happy PSA customer, they are the real deal!
