Welcome.
PSA tolerances are not what they use to be. I wouldn't use their LPK's, at least not the last ones I saw. They are first to run to the bottom of the market, sure most of their parts are serviceable, but you need to take a hard look at their LPK kit and the new lowers with the tightening screw are so out of spec they need a tightening screw.... If you can buy parts from them, especially FN barrels they are usually the first to run to the bottom when the market catches up, so you can get some good prices.

Yeah, you just need to inspect the LPK's before you use them, there isn't much you can screw up in one, but they do have some with crappy parts in them. But you never know where the parts are coming from, it could be different each batch they put together.
Welcome to the forums...im personally rocking a smith&wesson m&p15 OR model...i love it and it was pretty cheap paid $899 +tax at cabelas but that was a few years ago before the stupid tax was applied! Lol anyways i dropped the timney gold skeletonized 3lb trigger in and threwaburris mtac w/fastfire3 on top no complaints! Check the for sale threads theres plenty of AR's tricked out or stock for decent prices...good luck and welcome again...
Exactly, PSA was great when they were smaller and inspected their parts! I have sent quite a few items back, some from major manufactures (Glock for one) for quality control issues, and we just opened this week. If you don't know enough to know what to look for, spending a few more bucks for a better kit is an option, or to get someone to help you out.
