Title: PSA PA-10
Post by: NorcalEnthusiast (NCE) on November 24, 2015, 11:35:39 AM: I just finished up my 6-8 month PA-10 build :) I had one of those complete uppers that were available for $360 shipped on a shelf forever. I had not even cut the ziptie to check out the BCG. I finally got a complete lower for $230 shipped and smacked them together. Threw on a rear MBUS and a new handguard and called it good. Looks like a decent budget gun for around $590+40+30+20 (mag). Bolt looks good, and doesn't seem to have any issues with extractor or springs sticking. The chamber is good. Anyone have a review or comments on a total budget PA-10 build like this? I'll have more if I ever shoot it :)

I'm really curious about these! Go out and shoot it, I want a range report!

I think that's your job to do after you go shoot it!
