I don't see anywhere where OP indicated PSA was all he was looking at. No need to get all protective of your favorite.
What's pulling you toward the 300?
Easy to change though if he doesn't like it, just swap the barrel. Kind of hard to call it a mistake when there are such minimal repercussions.Unless you really like to reload or want to shoot suppressed using bullets with a better BC than a 9mm can do IMHO 300 Blk is a trendy mistake.
The OP seemed to be wanting a complete upper, while changing an AR barrel is easy with the proper basic tools, it can be an obstacle the first time.Easy to change though if he doesn't like it, just swap the barrel. Kind of hard to call it a mistake when there are such minimal repercussions.
I would LOVE a 9mm sub gun like the SIG MPX.
I've seen and know of way too many guys who deeply regret buying PSA.
You don't need to spend $1k. Plenty of $400 uppers that will more than likely shoot great.
This one looked interesting for $400.

I bought this same upper and was very pleasantly surprised. In fact the prices at the point where Im looking to buy an AR pistol just as a range toy.*PSA has 16" Midlength 5.56 NATO 1/7 SOCOM Melonite Freedom Rifle Kit w/ Vortex Spitfire 1x Prism Scope for $499 right now. If you Google the Spitfire, most places have it for $300.
This is a great deal for a good upper complete with etched reticle illuminated optic. Oh, and the rest of the rifle parts except a lower.*
I just ordered this very upper, and for all the reasons listed by Mike C2. I'm also ordering a PSA "blem" complete lower. I will eventually build another AR, but this gives me a "pin-together" rifle and a stash or spare parts (or foundation parts for the build.) All I'll really need to add is a rear sight.
