How’s PSA’s Shipping These Days?

[rickyrick]

Back in the day their shipping was atrocious, took a long time to get a rifle kit, like two months almost. I’ve ordered other things here and there with the same results. This kinda turned me off to them, so I haven’t ordered from them in a few years. I have no issues with their products.
I’ve been putting off making an A4 clone and they have the upper, just don’t want to wait a month to get it.
Anyone order recently?

Over the years they have been a toss of the dice for me--sometimes good--sometimes bad. Shipping services in general have become worse so I'm not as quick to blame them for problems with stuff in transit.

I've ordered from them several times over the past couple of years, and I've had no problems at all, and have found their shipping to be pretty good. YMMV

Thanks, 10-11 years ago it was terrible, weeks and months shipping and someone ripping off credit cards. The credit card issue was solved long ago. My first AR came from them as a carbine kit, the upper has been great but I don’t have any of the lower parts installed anymore, except for takedown pins and detents. Plan on sacrificing a 24 inch bull-barrel upper that I don’t use very much, because it is a bit ridiculous now that I live in a dense forest.
I’ve always wanted an A4/clone

I ordered an AR lower 19April, ships to a designated FFL of course. Ten days in, an online check says its "shipped". Website says to contact PsA if not arrived in 15 days...we will see.

[rickyrick]

Well, I did it… I guess I’ll give an update when I get it.
Clock is ticking lol

I just ordered a Sig P365XL from PSA last night.
I will post updates too.

Got a tracking number, that’s definitely an improvement from previous orders, last order from them was 2017, lol how time flies

I never had any issues with them! I started buying from them in about 2014-15 and have bought many things from them over the years. Parts, uppers, lowers, accessories, and ammo. I think the longest I ever waited was a little over a week due to timing during a huge sale.

[bamaranger]

Upper ordered 19April arrived at my designated FFL in 12 days, suits me.

[rickyrick]

It’s in transit, so it’s pretty good now.

[rickyrick]

It made it here, so much better than a decade ago, heading to the semiautomatic forum to brag.

Historically for me, PSA has been one of the most reliable places I've done business with. Within the past couple months, I bought a couple Holosun red-dots that had a tracking number and had shipped within 48hrs.

Don't forget that in the modern world of Amazon overnight where we expect things shortly after we click "purchase", that everybody is at the mercy of whatever shipping company they use... once a product has left a business, it's all on Fedex, UPS, USPS, etc...

I find a lot of people just don't understand how a huge storm somewhere in the midwest can affect the shipping time (by days) coast-to-coast and somehow want to blame the business for "slow shipping".

[rickyrick]

Well, there was a time about 10+ years ago, their shipping was about two months and someone was ripping off credit cards. I experienced both problems, so believe what you want. The only way to get customer support was a guy at AR15.com forum.
The products were fine.
Things have definitely improved.

Absolutely true--I experienced both as well.

[armoredman]

I ordered two days ago and they shipped yesterday with an expected delivery date of 3 days from now. I guess I will find out, but I've never had any issues with PSA.

It was great this go around. The rifle is running great.
