I am looking for a lower cost upper in 18" Rifle length gas tube (I already have a 20" Lilja).
Are the PSA 18" Rifle-Length 6.5 Grendel 1/8 Stainless Steel 15" Lightweight M-Lok Upper OK? How accurate?
They are quite well priced @ $369.99 with bolt assembly.
Any alternative recommendation?
Thanks.

Some have posted on their PSA uppers, IIRC with good results. Hopefully FN barrels, though I have heard that they now do them in house.
As with all low price barrels, it's a spin the wheel for accuracy and quality.

Catchy sig line here.

I believe PSA does their own barrels now.

PSA has purchased several companies in SC and now have control over several companies who used to be their suppliers. There were several short videos posted on ARF.com showing the manufacturing facilities and interviews with PSA management. PSA is manufacturing a wide variety of products and has really grown as a company in a relative short period of time. There are videos showing the barrel manufacturing facility/process.

Let us know how it works out when you get it! I've been eyeing these as well.

If it shoots as good as my 12" Grendel Upper with CH and BCG for $349, it is a great buy.....
They have 30 day return if it isn't so I would at least try it.

Late to the party but my 18 PSA lightweight upper was reliable and held good groups.
