Buy a LWRC Six8 rifle for $2,000, or just buy a PSA 6.8 upper for my 5.56 AR? (And save $1,600)
I’ve never had a 6.8 before, but I’m pretty sure I want one. But I need it to be just as reliable and accurate as my 5.56 AR, because I want it to be my primary SHTF-EDC rifle.
Has anyone had good or bad luck with the PSA 6.8 uppers on a standard lower?
(Or other manufacturer. It doesn’t have to be PSA, but that’s the one I’m looking at.)
What problems or issues should I be aware of going into this?
Thoughts and advice?
