What are your thoughts on this BCG for a SHTF rifle. Would you trust it or would you buy something else ?http://palmettostatearmory.com/cata...tm_campaign=Constant+Contact&utm_medium=email

Neither I nor my friends have ever had any issues with their BCG's.

That's a good buy, I might have to pick up a couple. I'm building another couple of rifles next year, this would be a great time to buy stuff like this since the prices have gone way down.

That's the same thing I was thinking. Try to buy quality parts when they are on sale. Might take six months to build them but it's usually worth it

I run one of those BCGs in my "blingy" rifle and it's been fantastic. They're well built with quality components. I actually just ordered two more of them earlier today. At $70 they're an absolute bargain and will stand up against any of the $160 BCGs out there.

One thing to note though: they are not kidding in the description about them being shipped dry. They NEED to be disassembled and well lubricated before you use them.

I have upwards of 1,000 rounds through the rifle with one in there and it's never so much as hiccuped.

Got one earlier this week...
Took apart, oiled well, and inspected...
All looks good.
This is the third of theirs I have bought and have not had any trouble with the other two.

I've order plenty from PSA since the summer of 2013 without issue. My most recent order left me with some home diagnosis to do.

I ordered a premium railed upper that featured an FN barrel and this BCG. Upon receiving the upper I mounted it to my complete PSA lower. The BCG started binding to the buffer tube when trying to cycle/charge the rifle.

After much swapping of parts between various rifles it turned out to be an off-spec carrier. They rectified the issue immediately and w/o question. Great customer support, but definitely test components right after getting them.

Don't let them sit in boxes for months. Test them right away!

This is not a bad deal either:

They are having some great deals right now for sure.

I just ordered the 9mm Freedom complete upper for $296 shipped. Couldn't pass it up.

They are also running a good deal on .300 Blackout ammo at $13 a box.

Yeah. That's the same BCG as the OP was talking about.

The trick with Palmetto is knowing their product lines so that you understand what you're ordering. Their premium-level stuff (like this BCG) are generally really nice stuff.

I have three and have had no issues. Like mentioned above make sure you oil it well before use.
