Several of us have requested A1 profile dissy uppers from H&R, but Mike has understandably said that there are too many other things going on to focus on that.
Would it be possible for PSA to offer them with a lightweight/A1 profile barrel? You guys already offer a A2 profile version (here)so it shouldn’t be too big of a deal to do an A1 profile (.650) option. There are currently zero commercially available A1 profile dissys and many of us would like one. |

We do everything in VERY high volume to keep costs down. Thank you, Josiah |

If you act now their normal Dissipator uppers just went on sale for $60 more than they were off sale.
Looks like someone accidentally swapped the stainless and nitride pricing. |

Spikes made a great light weight dissipator upper long ago. AIM used to sell them. Occasionally they come up used on the EE so worth keeping an eye out.

PSA daily deal upper half I bought years ago.
Shoots great, but is definitely heavier. |

Very well done! Any plans for something like that to be produced? |

I'd love to see a 605 type gun, but with a hidden midlength hidden gas system since a rifle gas system on a 16" gun is not ideal

I've always wondered why nobody's building a barrel with a .750 midlength gas journal and then a .625 fake journal at the rifle length position to fit A1-diameter FSBs. All the parts would be common enough, and if dissys aren't selling you could build it as a lightweight midlength instead.

View Quote It would actually make sense too, heavier at the rear and tapered down to pencil from the gas block forward. |

It would actually make sense too, heavier at the rear and tapered down to pencil from the gas block forward. While not ideal, that’s definitely acceptable. The problem with the extra weight is that most of it is on the muzzle end, if we could lose at least some of that I’d be satisfied. |
