gunwonk2

I have this exact rifle, and it runs fine, but it required a trip through the PSA warranty system. I bought the rifle used, from a seller who said he'd bought it new from PSA about 2 years ago. When I got it, the rifle would smokestack and FTE. (Here's a thread: https://forum.308ar.com/topic/17011-another-pa-10-fte-and-maybe-a-clue/.) I sent some pics of the failure to the PSA warranty folks, they sent a prepaid UPS label, and in 2 or 3 weeks I had a new upper. I've had it to the range one time, and so far it runs fine, both factory ammo and a few reloads. Key to the process was that neither I nor the original purchaser had altered the rifle, so whatever was messing up was all PSA parts, interacting correctly or not, whatever, their problem. PSA states that their warranty covers this -- sounds like forever -- and they came through in my case. So I am now officially a PSA booster. Now that I have a working baseline rifle, I may try some of the mods discussed on this forum. I'm new to the AR platform, and will probably go slow, but there's a lot of interesting stuff here. FWIW, I've already set up a forward mounted 2-7x IER scope, which I like pretty well, and found an M-LOK sling swivel mount, to use in prone position shooting. (And yes, this rifle is heavy.) -- gunwonk2 P.S. -- I am the same "gunwonk" that posted about that FTE, but for some reason that ID doesn't work any more. I can log on as "gunwonk", and click on stuff, but none of the text boxes work, and I can't enter any content. Also, can't complain to management, because that requires entering something into a text box! WTF. Whatever. Anyhow, I'll use this ID until it stops working. ?
