This is part 1 of the “Poverty Build” series! We will be doing a thorough longevity test on this budget rifle from Palmetto State Armory. This rifle started as an entry-level AR15 and we’ve added some parts and accessories to make it look and function a little better. Most of the internal components are stock and the stuff we added is mostly aesthetics. If you’d like to see the complete series and more videos like this, please subscribe to the channel!

A true poverty build is like <$450 🙄🙄🙄🙄🤡
why didn't you follow up on this series?
I went thru your playlist and no pt. 2 yet 🤷🏽♂️
"Poverty build" and not using an Anderson lower….
Thumbs down for click bait title…there was no torture test, just a guy showing his ar15 build….
How much was the upper? Out of stock every time I check so I can’t see prices.
Most people who buy poverty guns actually shoot their guns. Those who buy expensive Ar 15 usually safe queen them and usually don’t shoot them. Psa will always be my training gun. Maybe a bcm but I haven’t the need to get one since my psa rocks
I used to be a big fan of PSA until recently I purchased a 16" midlength upper in Flat Dark Earth. About a month later I received a Black one and About 12 calls later, each consuming over an hour to get through to a live person only to be told that I could deal with it or send it back for a refund. Never in my life have I dealt with such piss poor customer service. Still have not had issue resolved. The upper also arrived scratched up and was priced About $200 more than they have sold the same upper for just a few months ago. Even with the price gouging they still were unable to send the handguards that I bought and paid for to make my order correct. If I were to recommend a company based on customer service alone PSA wouldn't make the list.
Sooooo….nothing in the internals is gonna affect the performance?? Then why did ua change them all out?
Lol 8months later and no follow up vids 😭
What color is that hand guard ? I’m thinking about cerakoting my DD and that looks 🔥🔥🔥 that’s a great looking rifle.
Check out my custom Wilson Combat I just built with an Ex-DEA agent!! Most recent vid on my channel👍🏼
shoot the damn gun or else stop making videos.
PSA makes as good a weapon as any of the rest of the maunfactors.
My mans did everything but a torture test lol
Why title it as "poverty"… there is more money on accessories than the AR itself..!! bruuuuhhhhh
The stripped lowers are like 120 right now.
Real nice man, real nice.
If this is poverty then I must REALLY be on some level below poor
How was this a torture test
Why does everyone feel the need to use intro music…Then music while you're talking?
How about blessing a new subscriber with this weapon during the shortage?? Nice review btw.
Got any recommendations?

I also picked up a PSA 10.5-in pistol with an SBA 3, and a freedom upper with an mlok handguard.
However I did disassemble, gauge, and QC the rifle myself and I couldn't find anything wrong other than the barrel was not dimpled because it's a Gen2 to AR-15, so I had to dimple it myself.
Did the same thing on a PSA gen 3 AR-10, except that Barrel was already dimpled.
So far all my PSA products have ran reliably and all the QC has passed.
I wanna build the cheapest one possible I'm not gona torture my weapon ill take it out and shoot every now and then but rather just have it for when I need it
This is obviously not a poverty a poverty build
Any issues with you bolt catch seizing up after a couple mags? My freedom rifle has that issue and PSA isn't helping much.
I want to get one of their AR Pistol build kits.
Good video man. I like how you're straight to the point on things. I just picked one of these up for $400 with 2 mags and about 180 rounds. Excited to see how it shoots.
Dude that is a killer setup!
So where's the torture test?
GREAT VIDEO!
Solid video of the specs! That sight is neat
What part of NC are from man? Awesome video by the way 👍👍
Nice vid!
