Nor Cal, here

Nor Cal resident, been in the 'Gun Culture' for at least 25 years. I found this forum researching AR10 and clones. Unlike my AR15 stuff, nobody in the gun industry wanted to play nice and agree on one standard for the guns.

What got me started on this was Palmetto selling complete uppers for $300, and what I really want, the 20" SS barrel with a 15" Keymod handguard rifle kit. The rifle kit is currently OOS, but around Labor Day, it was $349 and then bounced up to $399.

I was used to seeing $1000+ 308 guns, so not much interest. But at less than half that price, I'm interested. (can buy a lot of ammo with $500)

Palmetto currently has their lower on sale for $79.99, but being in Kali, the price more than doubles when I include the $25 background check, $25 for another Safety Card, $50-100 for the FFL's transfer fee, 8.5% sales tax and gas for two trips to the FFL. We got a 10 day wait before we can pick anything up.

So what I want to know, is there an 80% lower that will work with the PSA kit? I already have the Bridgeport and all the tooling, so that is the plan.

I'm well aware that PSA makes a semi unique piece, as do most of the vendors. And the conventional wisdom is to buy everything from one vendor, but if anybody has found something that will work, please speak up!
