PSA PA-10 BCG compatible with DPMS LR308?

[Luconi]

Basic question. I ran into a PSA PA-10 BCG that includes a charging handle that I'd like to use for my build. Is this bcg/ch compatible with any LR308 pattern rifle? Of course the description says nothing about compatibility, wanted to check with you guys just to be sure.

I have heard the PSA PA-10 is a proprietary rifle where a lot of parts will not work with LR308's. Is this true?

That is what we are finding out. Their previous claims of compatibility have been disproven when they started selling product to the public, who then figured it out for them. I'd stay away for now.

I bailed on my PSA build, after getting burned by their out-of-spec receiver parts, which they have yet to fix.  I'd stay away as well.  There are plenty of good options available for affordable prices.

One data point: I bought a second-hand PTAC lower.  I wish I'd seen this thread before making the purchase.  When my Ares Armor upper arrived, I discovered that there is a .050" gap between the end of the upper and its "mating" surface on the lower. The Ares upper fits perfectly with a Quentin Defense lower.

 

I later bought  a PA-10 upper on sale, plus a PSA lower parts kit, in hopes that I can end up with a working rifle (I can't, in good conscience, re-sell the lower to another sucker.)  I'll post how the PSA upper works out with my Ares BCG. I suspect that the BCG will be .050" short.

Good luck.  I'm pretty sure the PA-10 and PTAC-10 are completely different, from my experience with the company, but I do hope it works out for you.
