Not interchangeable, instead what fits what with dimensions.

Thanks bfoosh006, I should have thought of that. Can you help assemble information for a spreadsheet on interchangeable .308AR parts, BCG, receiver extensions, buffer, and springs as well as anything else you think would be useful. We could post a "dead copy" of it and I would be happy (my wife) to update it when requested.

If someone will tell me which post dates are accurate I will try and fix a spreadsheet, well actually I will ask my wife to since she knows and I don't. But I will take credit of course..

Is this the one? New 20" barrel, now it short strokes By Dracomeister, April 8, 2017 in General Discussion Starts on page 2 with BCG measurements.

I am pretty aware of what parts I need from AR15 experience, just trying to figure out who I can order from and get the right ones. I hope we can locate the thread with the BCG measurements.

Like I posted in the intro section my upper came complete and my lower I found at a retailer. They had been carrying it for a while. The receiver extension on it is marked PA-1 and is 7 7/8 but now has three quarters to bring it to 7 5/8. The buffer is marked "H". How did you get past cs?

The only contact I can make after a lot of searching on the internet is the alleged Customer Service Dept. The same alleged cs answered an email that with some white noise reply, my reply to them ( not so white noise) was replyed with cs was the only point of contact. I sent an information inquiry to them before Christmas and have gotten no reply yet.

98 I should also thank you for not just telling what to do but why. Why is a much more important concept than how.

Which way is most functional, quarters or the Armalite extension? Would Armalite buffer and spring be even more functional? In the mean time I am going to insert quarters and wait until my part of the warm sunny South gets above too damn cold.

I am a believer in having spares to keep a weapon running. So can anyone tell me whose BCG PSA uses for the PA10. I understand the FCG is AR15 but if anyone knows about other spare parts that might be needed that would be appreciated. Put a simpler way, what breaks most on the rifles, other than of course the lack o tech department at PSA?

ARTrooper, I apologize for my lack of naked or half naked women pictures. I will endeavor to improve the scenery in my future posts.

Well, 98 it would seem that my tube is 7 7/8ths. Did I measure wrong our is this more good PSA QC?

I am not far from Appomattox.

Sorry to be so slow but I was separated from my gun safe until today. My buffer is marked "H" and is 3.243" , the spring is 12.50" relaxed, and the tube is 7.25" installed outside length from the back of the receiver. My measurements seem about the same as Merls and the recoil seemed mild in comparison my Savage Mod. 10(muzzle brake, heavy fluted 24" barrel). Does anyone have thoughts about the usefulness of adding a rifle length buffer and A1 stock. I can't but that was the original idea.

I ordered the PSA Gen2 PA10 20" Rifle Length .308 WIN 1:10 Nitride 15" Lightweight M-lok Upper with BCG and CH for $419 and got it in pretty short order and it looked good. I added an Gen 2 lower and it functioned correctly for 20 rounds of P.M.C. 150gr with good results ( it went "bang" every time I squeezed the trigger). The Rest of The Story: Of course I got wonderful treatment by the lack o tech guys at PSA. The lack o tech guys told me at the time of my order that an A2 lower with the proper rifle length buffer and tube would be available "soon". A word of caution now for anyone over the age of 30 waiting for PSA to produce a part, YOU WILL NOT LIVE LONG ENOUGH! I tried calling, repeatedly and you all know the results. I sent emails, you all know those results as well. So I found a Gen 2 lower with a crappy adjustable stock and I guess a carbine buffer setup, wheeled and dealed with the retail gun store for a discount (they have to pay retail to PSA now because a competitor bitched) on a Magpul ACS-L and the PSA lower, paid more than I should have for it and converted my heavy stick (upper) into a functioning .308AR. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the product with the exception of having to deal with PSA lack o tech for parts. I hope to discover any parts other than the FCG and stock that can be obtained from an actual vendor that cares. So far the discussion here is enlightening and everyone seems to understand that they are the "real" PSA Tech Department. So please, flood my inbox with knowledge.
