So far so good. I like the fact it’s got a 1:7 twist. I’ve had no issues reliability wise, and I think I got a little extra cool factor in that mine came with desert tan furniture.

They seem to be well regarded from what I’ve found online and reviewers are of the opinion they offer a good rifle at a very good price point. If I had had some spare coin at the time, I would have also gotten a specimen of a second rifle IRG was advertising at the time...the 10.5” MLok version.

Thanks, IRG is tough to beat on price and good quality gear, I just got an AR-10 so trying to figure if I can afford this too, I got a couple Aero lowers. A while back, shouldn't have as I really don't want to be in the AR assembly business and it seems to cost more if you lego them yourself! Maybe I will get one for my wife!

I was just speaking with a friend who is looking around for an AR deal and he agrees this is probably the best deal on a new AR currently available in Canada.
 
The export license application is approved for these so they will be in Canada in the next couple weeks.

wow cool price ?

Very very similar. Barrel has slightly different shape and I think the S&W has a 1:8 twist while the PSA is 1:7. Not a large difference for an AR, both can stabilize 55 to 77grn, which is what you'll use in an AR. Rest is pretty much the same. This one is slightly less expensive than a really good deal on a S&W, so I'd grab this one.

I am a newb to this platform too, got an AR-10 coming tomorrow, while I was looking at the .223, the Smith is good and has good reviews, one fault if it is a fault they said was, there was no heat shield in the forearm, I remember when these came out a couple years ago they had MBUS sights included but they stopped that with the last few batches. I haven't read too many review on this particular PSA yet but reviews on PSA in general are good!
 
I bought one a few months back. It's been a great rifle. Runs like a top. No issues. It's a good choice for a mid-tier AR.

PS gets grief because they have reasonable pricing, but they are every bit as good as S&W and all the other manufacturers in this tier. And I would absolutely get one of these over a new Norc.

In fact, I might buy another one... Just because. I like the idea of importing more ARs into Canada. Every time you import an AR into Canada, an anti loses their wings.
