Hey guys I am wondering how tough and reliable and really just how good a weapon Palmetto State Armory puts out. I am general interested in their bolt carrier group. Says all the good stuff, MPI HP tested..sounds good to me. Anyone with any experience with em?

I have one and I love it. No problems with it. You won't regret your purchase

PSA = GTG.

Have two "mostly" PSA rifles, with only BCG and lower parts being from other places cause PSA didn't have 'em at the time.

Both have been just aces. The FN barrels are great.

Their premium bolt held together when I had a round kaboom in my rifle. I bought another one.

9310 and C158 are both gtg in regards to bolt material.

I see no reason to go with 8620 which  should be placed into  the "failed "experiment file.

Their premium BCG (logo, HPT/MPI) should be GTG but I'd definitely pass on the cheaper 8620 bolt/carrier. I have their second best, the MP M16 BCG which has been good, very nice carrier but not so good gas key and screws (which I'll likely replace). The non-M16 BCG seems ok but I'd pass since the premium isn't much more. I would have passed on the MP M16 BCG too but the premium hadn't been in stock for months when I bought a few months ago.

I have beat the guts out of one of my CHF midlengths using cheapo MFS .223 on full auto and it just keeps going.

I don't recommend you treat yours as poorly as I do.

I haven't actually got to the range yet, but I just recently built one of their premium Dissipators with a Stag lower. When I got the upper I was pretty impressed with the build and quality of the firearm. So there's that. From what I've heard around here, they have a very good reputation. They can be slow at times shipping, because of the demand, but that's about it. I also have their Buffer tube assembly and it fits like a glove. Great quality parts.
