They should have sent it the day you contacted them. I will find out why that didn't happen.

PM me with your name and online order number and I will get it taken care of on Monday.

Here is my PSA barrel on my rifle I built. I only got to test it with about 15 rounds or so, but standing from 50 years I shot about a 4 inch group with it.

I have the titular PSA barrel sitting at home that I was planning to take to the gunsmith this weekend to get mounted on my recently arrived upper. Is the headspace issue bani mentioned an error in the dimensions of the barrel or a problem with how it was attached?

the issue i mentioned is an error with the dimensions of the barrel's chamber.

have your gunsmith check the headspace. a new barrel should close on a GO gauge but it should not close on a NO-GO gauge.

PSA Called to check head space with me with my new upper. I checked and a fired round in my PSA upper chambers easily in my Micro7. If the chamber is to long in my PSA upper the fired round should have not fallen into it .. At first i thought to not send it back but maybe my micro seven in fact has a to long head space??.. meaning it is not the brass after all causing the light primer hits in the Micro7 after all. .... i am more than pleases with PSA ..a call tag! Cost me $45 to ship n insure my AAC rifle to get fixed.

Hats off to PSA!
Long distance, the next best thing to being there!

I got the same call, waiting on the return shipping email and label
Had no problems with the upper, brass looked and miked fine.
I had one live round stick in the chamber - a Gunn 130
Other than that it has been fine.
Definitely plan to send it back to get OK'ed
Hope it doesnt take long.

** meant to post this in the upper thread, not the barrel thread. FYI

Your uppers that are being returned will be inspected, and corrected if necessary upon arrival. They should ship back out around the same day we receive them. We do apologize for any inconvenience in the matter.
