looking for unbiased review of NEA parts

[Trinimon]

Just picked up my NEA 300BLK barrel from the post. To be honest, I was expecting the worse but was pleasantly surprised. Not bad. Some tool markings but not that overly weird ARC+ look that some others got. Kind of a neutral gray finish.

Upon quick inspection, all looks good. Feed ramps, bore, breach. threaded muzzle are all clean.

I am wondering if there is a clear time line between those that have experienced issues and problems with NEA products and those that haven't. Is NEA parts production up to par with the rest of the AR mfg's over the last 18 months or so, or are they still experiencing issues that seemed to have been prevalent when they first started?

There doesn't seem to be. Hitzy has been burned twice very recently by BAD qc at NEA. NEA is not even up to par with norinco despite being nearly double the price.

This has run it's course along with all the rest of them.
