  • Need an upper to go with that Spikes lower? Good deal




    Don't know much about PTAC, but an upper with BCG and CH for $289 is a pretty good deal. Free shipping too.

    I got one. I have 2 now. You can post in the "Deal of the Day" thread as well.

          Have you shot yours yet? They're getting pretty mixed reviews. I am tempted to get one for the hell of it but haven't talked myself into it yet.

            I haven't even got mine yet ... ordered on 1/3 and they haven't even shipped it.

              PSA is notoriously slow. Seems like everything I order from there takes 3-4 weeks.

                With any luck the shotgun I ordered on 12/27 will show up tomorrow.

                  I noticed that. All the PSA parts have gotten great reviews but some people are complaining about the fit and finish of this PTAC stuff.

                    Have not shot it. My lower is not working well, so I need to fix that first.

                    The fit an finish is quite nice imo. Even if it wasn't very good, for a $200 complete upper it is fantastic.

                      Sign up on their website for email notification. Happens at least 1 time per day.

                        The only negative comment I have found regarding PTAC is the bolt may not be the best made. It is a fairly new company, apparently, and PSA is their only distributor. Other complaints have been that there is a dry lube film on the inside of the receiver that discolors the finish and is really difficult to remove. Not that that would affect accuracy, and most comments have described the PTAC upper assembiles as great entry level AR uppers.

                          These are some of the threads that kinda have me shying away. Sounds like a bad lot of barrels got loose. Several folks have complained about the bores having bad machine marks still in them. PSA seems to be taking the bad ones back which is good though.

                          I know some of you hate arfcom but PSA has a forum there which is handy if you have an issue. Inspect your bore when your upper arrives and hope for the best.
