Tim/GA Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) Anyone have experience with Palmetto State Armory's barrels? I have been looking for a 16" mid length gas barrel to finish a 3-gun build. They have a stainless with Wylde chamber, 1 in 8" twist, target crown and threaded muzzle. Just have not heard anything about their barrels and did notsee much in a search. Thanks Edited October 9, 2011 by Tim/GA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint-M Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 I've seen reports on entire PSA uppers that got 1.5" groups of 5 at 100 yards. Couldn't speak on the barrel life and how that group opens up but I have only seen good things about them so far. CM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carbon9 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Looks about like the same specs as the Nordic Components Wilson Barrel 16" mid gas barrel. Same price as well. Probably be fine either way. I don't have the PSA but I do really like my Nordic and mine does sub MOA. Nordic customer service was above and beyond as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpipe95 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 i just bought one, and during my research before my purchase, i found a few sites that stated they are wilson barrels. I have been trying to find out if they are indeed wilson barrels. If you find out any more info please post it up. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carbon9 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Hmmmm. A company that is hard to get an answer or response from about "their" product or you could just buy the "same" Wilson barrel for the same price from a company(Nordic Components, which supports Benos.com) that freely gives the information you are wanting. You could have already had it in your hands by now. Here is a link to a thread which will give you an idea on the Nordic/Wilson barrel accuracy.

bpipe95 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I have contacted Nordic, they are not getting those barrels back in stock for a long while. I love Nordic products and the guys are top notch. I will most likely wait until they get them back in stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim/GA Posted October 14, 2011 Author Share Posted October 14, 2011 Thanks for the info guys. Like was said above, Nordic is out of stock and also they specifically say that their barrel does not have the M4 feedramp cuts. The upper I am using is cut for those anyway. Went ahead and ordered from PSA, hope to have it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
