Seeing as how AP is making receivers for all their competition (PSA, Spikes, etc.) I am sure they will do just fine.

Not at the price the OP quoted though.

If PSA outsells them, they still sell their product. PSA is paying them more money for receivers than they will ever make selling their own rifles.

Also, you can build a PSA cheaper because when you build it yourslef, you aren't paying federal excise tax. PSA factory built rifles are considerably more expensive than parts kits.

And there are many out there that will pay more for a factory built rifle.

This was pricing from their street (website)... If street price is $580, that is getting better!

AP makes good stuff, never really had any bad experience with them. Does anyone have any bad run ins with their lowers?

I remember having a bunch that had a forging seam that they didn't grind down that looked like crap. I emailed Aero asking if they were blems and they responded that they never grind down the forging seam which is B.S. because the next batch of lowers I got were smooth. But as far as assembling it into a complete lower, they seem to be consistent in their specs.

I looked up the dealer pricing and it's not going to be retailed for $580. It will probably be sold at $699 since it's new.
