I am in the same boat. I have a Ruger MPR and while it works fine and shoots where i want it to I like shooting my SKS and pistols way more. I damn near want to trade it/sell it and get a Scorpion.

I picked up this one as I wanted something that is cheaper to shoot than my 308 and a semi-auto. It fulfills both of those, I just haven’t made any bond with it. If someone offered close to what I have in it, I’d probably let it go and just replace it with a bolt action.

Good. I got one of these PSA uppers a while back to run with the echo trigger in my spikes lower. Figured if I was going to burn up a barrel, let it be a cheap one lol
Dang thing is solid, no problems with steel cased and running it hard, with or without a silencer.
Nice. Thanks. I went ahead and ordered one of the black nitride pistol kits. Who knows when I'll get around to building it, but it'll be there when I want to I guess.

NO!
I ordered 3 of the Blazer Brass Black Pack ammo boxes on November 16. I got 2 of them a few days later and have yet to see the 3rd one.
UPS says they never received it. PSA says it was lost between their warehouse and UPS. They said that they would ship a replacement and I should have it by November 30.
Well, it's December 6. I sent them an email on Monday (since they weren't answering their phone) and asked them to give me a tracking number for the replacement shipping or to cancel the order and give me a refund if it hasn't shipped yet.
Crickets. No reply email, no phone call...nothing.
If I don't have a tracking number or my ammo by Monday, I'm filing a dispute with my credit card company and PSA can fight with them instead of me. Either way, PSA can go **** themselves as far as I'm concerned. Will never order from them again. Too many competent companies in the game to waste time with idiots. Had never ordered from PSA before, but lesson learned.
There is a noticeable difference in quality on the market but that doesn't mean there isn't a place for all of it. I have three AR15s on hand with LMT lowers & BCM uppers, high dollar optics and nice triggers. Why? Because I want them to be something I can rely upon no matter what and in my experience that is exactly what those components will deliver.
On the other hand I just ordered three of the PSA pistol kits. One for me (new truck gun) and one for my daughter and wife for Christmas. I also jumped on Amazon and ordered three Magpul rear sights and three Bushnell TRS-25s for them. Are these pistols going to be tools I'd bet my life on? Not in a million years but they'll be something my wife, daughter and I can shoot and have fun with and should the time come they'll both know where to find the good stuff and how to use it.
There's room in the market for a wide variety of products. Some will buy lesser quality and figure if it goes bang they've outsmarted those spending more money on higher dollar stuff. There are also those who don't mind spending a few more bucks for the peace of mind that buying tested & proven quality components will provide.

Ordered a 10.5 kit on Black Friday....still says "processing".
As long as it proves reliable it'll be something I'll keep readily available but that I wouldn't spend two months mourning the loss of should it come up missing on me. I don't spend much time worrying about end of the world scenarios and my pistol will most likley be the primary tool I'd use to get out of harm's way (and get to a better weapon system). Most likely the AR pistol would be something to have on hand to dispatch a coyote with on the fly.
I always tell myself I'm going to save for a Daniel or something along those lines... then I come across these PSA sales and talk myself into a few builds rather than one "High End" rifle. I'm very happy with my PSA rifle builds, buts damn I need to stop putting that Daniel on the back burner and actually get one haha
And just like that, the planets started to align: https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-ar-15-lower-safe-fire-1728.html?avad=190366_c14081db1&utm_source=Avantlink&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=cl
Twas a good Christmas this year. My wife and daughter were actually excited about their new coyote killer pistols. I just got through putting all three together and I have to admit that I'm impressed with the fit and finish of these kits. I bought three Anderson lowers and out of all three builds I had zero issues. Everything fits properly and assembled as it should. I forgot to order risres for the red dots so zeroing & training the ladies will have to wait for another week.
My thanks to Prometheus for posting the deal.
