wyliearms Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 (edited) Whether you are purchasing one new or own one that you need help with, you can use this to help you identify PSA's most popular components. For instance, troubleshooting an ejection issue on a billet is a little different than the forged, etc. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

1981Shooter Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I've been running my PSA upper with a TorkMag conversion block in a standard lower. Thinking it's about time to buy a dedicated lower though. I'm expecting there to be some sort of great deal on them popping up this week with SHOT Show going on. Link to comment
wyliearms Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 We had a few deals already. If I can make a suggestion, get this one: http://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-px9mm-billet-complete-classic-lower-uses-glockr-style-516447190.html You can change the stock and other components if you want. I really like this lower. It is the 3rd version as listed above. Link to comment

Of course it's the one without free shipping right now http://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-px9mm-billet-complete-moe-pistol-lower-with-sob-brace-uses-glockr-516447409sob.html Link to comment

I really like this lower. It is the 3rd version as listed above. That's the one I got my daughter, except hers has the magpul stock. It's a really good lower. my only complaint is the magwell. The magwell feels very tight when inserting mags. I installed a Taccom magwell funnel on hers since she wanted to keep the weight down. I have the forged lower and magazine insertion is much easier. I also run the Bmiller magwell. I'm thinking the angle is different on my forged and I'm just used to it. On a side note: Hiperfire trigger, C-more, Taccom buffer, Taccom ULW barrel with aluminum shroud and a carbon fiber handguard has her PCC ready for competition. Link to comment
Norther Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Are the PSA Colt magazine lowers gone forever? Link to comment
wyliearms Posted January 24, 2018 Author Share Posted January 24, 2018 We do not have plans to reintroduce those anytime soon. Link to comment
bmiller Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 My friend is at SHOT. He stopped by the PSA booth and asked to see the gen 3 Glock lower. This is what the guy showed him, that looks like a gen 2 lower not what is shown in the pic above. Can you clarify? Thanks Brian Link to comment
RS1250XL Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 (edited) Gen 3 bolts compatible with previous generations? Same weight or has it been changed? Also any changes/improvements to the extractor? Edited January 26, 2018 by RS1250XL Link to comment
3GLewie Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Interesting. I have the PCC Chamber barrel, a Gen 1/2 bolt, and Gen 1 lower. I really like my PSA, its a great value. I picked mine up around Labor Day 2017 for $499 I think. I still am grinning from ear to ear after each stage, 40+ rounds (ya I get a little trigger happy, and might put a few extra holes in a target. LOL) of blasting as fast as you can. Can't wait till March for the season to start around here. Link to comment

PSA is offering them now on their website. The area where you insert the mags is no longer "horizontal". Its similar to the New Frontier lower and angles upward towards the barrel. Looks like if I decide to upgrade one of my lowers I'll need you to make me a new style mag well. Bill Link to comment

z40acp Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 All PSA lowers say you must use their uppers. I seen a good deal on an Aero slick side upper, wouldn't this work with the correct BCG? Link to comment

All work just fine on my PSA lowers.. As long as its "mil-spec" it should work. Edited February 17, 2018 by Flatland Shooter Link to comment

If you can tell by looking, the lower looks different than the Gen 2. Here is one with the SOB brace: http://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-px9mm-billet-complete-classic-pistol-lower-with-sob-brace-uses-glockr-516447191sob.html I have several folks running them with great success.
