“ My AR runs, so it's fine"

[Psilloh1]

If snob is defined as liking one's **** to function as it should, then absolutely

So I have just a few high end AR’s, and a few PSA’s that I have torture tested.. I am very impressed they all get proper maintenance and inspections..

To say emphatically say that because they are a PSA and therefore won’t run is arrogant..

hahahahaha! "My used toilet paper still wipes so it must be fine".


To the OP, great topic but too little info. Here's a good article on what to clean and look at on your AR-15s, though we'd need a real gunsmith to post tolerance specs and fault measurements.

No sir, as the author I gave out exactly as much info as I wanted and intended. I’m here to help those who help themselves.

Like another gentleman stated above, School of the American Rifle is a great fount of information.

Mine identifies as an AK.

I never said because something is PSA that it WON'T run, but certainly has better chance of not performing properly than say a BCM, or Colt, or true FN, or pick a number of quality companies.

If you know what to look for specs-wise, and can check your parts, you can build a decent rifle from PSA parts. PSA’s “assembly”, however, is horrendous. I wouldn’t trust them to paint my porch.

If you do get a bad part from PSA, good luck dealing with their “customer service” to have the problem rectified.

AK’s also need inspection and maintenance.

The hell you say!

I’ve seen enough fail to know so!

If I got to run through a third of the ammo you do I'd probably be bored with it by now and take up golf or fishing.
But yeah I watch Robski at the AKOU channel and needless to say not all AKs are created equal. Some way less equal than others.

I am sorry you said function, I assumed that meant run and function. it does in everyone else’s book..

I am more than a passive shooter...
