Not sure what shit you are smoking. There's a multitude of firearm manufacturers in the price bracket that make good guns. PSA is one of the only ones that claims to support the 2nd Amendment, but the turns around and spits on the rights of residents who reside in states that scare them. They are cowards. Plain and simple. If you don't believe me, check their shipping policy, and then look into what people in those states can actually own. I'll tell you right now, that CT residents have been able to purchase AR parts for 9 years, and PSA has told us to fuck off for that entire time (even after HB6667 we can still bug components).

PSA are mostly MIL Spec and combat ready. Sure, you spend an extra $300 for a CHF barrel but all the other stuff is basic bitch stuff like you see in the Army lol I'm not an expert and guns aren't my life but I know what they're made of, how they're made, the material tolerances and life expectancy of the materials and PSA doesn't make anything that wouldn't pass MIL SPEC. Obviously PSA had machining issues in the beginning but such is the world of industrial mass production. I haven't seen PSA make a mistake they wouldn't gladly fix. True blood Americans shop with PSA. You have to buy American to have an America so stop buying junk from Turkey and China. And Palmetto should ban the sale of all products from China. If there was an incentive American companies would invest in the equipment and start making affordable optics like China and Europe. Vote with your dollars folks.

Palmetto state armory IS. The first place I look before I make a purchase. Thank you for your products and prices.
I was starting a business in late 2008, PSA was unheard of but they were the only company that came through on my order. A drop in the bucket for them, but it was huge for me and allowed my business to be successful. I will always have a soft spot in my heart for PSA.
I live in Maryland. The upfront cost of getting into the gun community is outrageous in this state. I'm new to the community, got started back in January 2023. All told to get my HQL and CCW was right around $500. Then the first gun, holster, optic, holster, cleaning kit. Then you start getting tools and upgrades. It's absolutely insane and it turns a lot of people off. I love PSA for doing things at the prices they do.
I think the best thing about PSA is that they aren’t beholden to shareholders. I’ll admit that shareholding opens many financial doors for companies, but it always leads to compromises in quality for both consumers and employees.
Love PSA AND GOA ❤❤❤

PSA keeps huge stocks of raw materials, & parts specifically to ride out panics. Some channels have done tours of their manufacturing facilities, & show just that.
Met this guy years ago when I was passing through and stopped at the Columbia area store. No clue he was the owner. But I remember him being very personable and treated me like I mattered. I like him and his company even more now after hearing his vision.

I was already a fan boy of ol' PSA but listening to the CEO makes me like them even more.
First off, always enjoyed PSA. But after this podcast episode and his unnerving transparency, I’m all in! This is one of the best podcasts I’ve seen in a while. It’s so good and the philosophy behind PSA is what the majority of consumers want. For this reason we are going to do a lot more PSA content. Thanks for sharing to the both of you.
If listening to this doesn't make you want to buy more PSA I don't know what will. I can't wait to see when PSA drops a 2011 or a CZ Shadow competitor.
As a SC resident I fully support PSA every chance I get and have been for years. I'd love for them to start manufacturing suppressors next.

It's been flawless, every caliber I've shot. Zero failures or issues. Check out Mr. Gunsngear for accuracy of their rifle ammo, but that can vary more based on the particular rifle than the ammo. It's been plenty accurate for me in mine though.
I love this guy, no diddy. Because he is one of few people who are this successful and extremely transparent about his business ethic.
As a machinist and gunsmith, Ive always supprted PSA. My Machinist class was able to tour theirs and FN's facilities in SC. Ive worked for multipke manufacturers in my career as well as working for the DOD. What I can say on the AR and AK fronts, their manufacturing processes are just as fine tuned as the higher end manufacurers. Every LARGE manufacturing companies go through QC issues throughout all company histories. I love HK and SIG, but I love PSA more. One last story, worked for an ammo manufacturer who used PSA rifles to do lot testing and for employees to use on range days. One of them had 120,000 rounds ran through the same barrel before we swapped it out. Agter that we implemented a 50,000 round change out. They produce quality, affordable product. I disregard the haters of AAC ammo as well. For a new ammo company to IMMEDIATELY take over a decent share of the ammo market, I'd say theyre doing phenomenally. They're even offering rifles at the same tier as BCM with the SABRE line. I understand some wont believe me about any of this, but its my professional opinion. Ill end this long rant by saying that I didnt believe anything I just said until I became a machinist and toured their facilities.

I support PSA just due to the products they're innovating on but this made me support them even more. I love they're supporting us with ammo with lawyer fees. It's really refreshing that a gun manufacturer will start gun stores whether online or physical and sell competitions products as well. It's really an all for one mentality over there.

I'm a huge PSA fan. I always loved guns but I got into guns through WWII collecting. Always wanted to get into ARs but they were expensive. November 2020 I returned from deployment and bought my first AR. I've bought a handful since and every single one is either fully PSA or partially built with PSA parts. AAC has allowed me to get a decent supply of ammo to practice with also. And now with the Sabre line I keep directing people there to get a quality AR at an affordable price. Especially first time buyers. I'm a PSA fanatic and I will be for life. Love the company. PS. Always wanted a SCAR/ACR/XCR. Thank you for the JAKL to allow those dreams to come true without straining my family finances. Already saving for the 308 Jakl.

I've always been a fan of PSA simply because I grew up in Charleston. Finally got around to building my first AR and it features a PSA lower. After this episode I'll be a customer for life.
The word _’hobby’_ is a good insight. Many gun owners don’t make one purchase - they go on to collect, build, etc. Focusing on single high margins can be a detriment to growing your customer base.

Problem is a ‘hobby’ turns into addiction and you spend even more money.

Please, PLEASE, open a store in Missouri so we don't have to deal with the horrible transfer fees locals are putting on PSA orders.

The FFL I use charges $30 per transfer. The guy down the interstate charges $70. The guy down the interstate said that he wants us to buy from him so that's why he charges so much...SMH When you're $200 higher than what I can get it for on line I'm ordering on line. Granted, he carries a lot of higher end firearms and he has a lot of inventory.

Just order the stripped lower or frame and send only that to the ffl… ship the build kit directly to your house. Best way to do it

You should get one of your local FFLs to become a PSA dealer. This will get rid of any middleman mark up and, usually the transfer fee.

Appreciate the discussion. PSA is a company I'll proudly support.
Bless PSA. I exercised my 2nd amendment right for the first time 2 yrs ago with the help of PSA and their build kits. Forever changed my life!
I have grown to love and appreciate PSA. I make sure to visit as many of their stores as possible and keep ordering their products on line also. Great interview Thank you GOA and PSA Two American heroes.
My two buddies and I have 10k+ rounds combined through our PSA platforms. We also own other ‘higher end’ brands, and have developed no preference between PSA and those higher end brands. That’s based on our experience with their reliability, accuracy and durability. I look forward to my next PSA based platform!

Any experience with their AKs ? Would love feedback
I own a PSA dagger, a PSA rock, and I will soon on a micro dagger! Made tons of purchases from PSA and never had one single problem . I don’t care what people say about Palmetto State Armory. Their corporate compass points, the same direction I do! People need to stop doing business with garbage companies that don’t support our community and support companies like PSA that support us and the second amendment!

After listening to this gentlemen and knowing some of his background and vision driving his success, he now has a lifelong customer. I built an AR from parts bought from them in the past but I will be buying everything from them here on out.
This man has not changed from the start that is why they get my business and will continue to do so. Great products I can not wait to see what they come up with next.
Shout out to this guy. Made it possible for me to start the hobby. Some of my friends are shills for top brands and never heard of PSA. I've converted some of em
I started buying PSA products last year without out any knowledge of the company. I started getting daily emails and I was shocked at the good deals they offered. After watching this interview I’m definitely gonna share information with my friends and family about PSA.
Great company. Love the Jakl product line. Love piston guns. Great price in 300 BLK.
Got my first AR-15 last year from PSA. Plan on getting a Dagger when the SWCH comes out. Waiting to see what Shot Show has in store for any "want" purchases.

A lot of cool stuff at shot. Hopefully at least a handful go into production
Just made my first purchase from PSA. Looking forward to spreading the good word about them.
I have never watched an hour long interview like this before, but the time just flew by….Loved his stories and hearing about how PSA was started. In regard to the products they make and sell, I haven’t had a single issue across multiple product lines (AR, AK, Dagger etc)…I love PSA, the value cannot be matched and they will continue to be my “go to” for any 2A related purchases.
I have been a PSA customer for over a decade, sure they had have some issues in the past but based on my experiences throughout the years they stood by their products and have done nothing but get bigger and better and have been killing it recently in terms of their high value offerings. I am an addict to their Dagger line and have shelfed my glocks in favor of my daggers as range toys and for EDC. Their product lines also make firearms fun as well. I am a psa customer for life.
I pretty much buy from them now. My last 3 guns (minus my Extar) were bought from PSA.
My first AR is a palmetto 16 and I love it. Their prices are incredible, I get excited when they send me emails with offers
CA resident. I visited family in SC last X mas and we went to PSA. It almost brought tears to my eyes. Keep up the good work!
As a father of 4 boys. The PSA dagger and PSA ar-15 are the greatest friend of mine. Everyone gets their own to learn and build. We all train together
I own a number of PSA toys and they have all been great !!!

I built my first AR 15 seven years ago and the vast majority of the parts came from Palmetto State. Today, it looks nothing like what it did originally but the main components are the same. And while I have since built multiple rifles, some cost quite a bit more, my original PSA is by far my favorite rifle to shoot. PSA got me into it and I want to thank you for everything you do.
Great guy, great company.
Thank you for all you have done for all of us
I've run probably over 10,000 rounds through my PSA upper 0 issues. I've had it for almost 10 years and it was an upper kit I was able to put together with the kit they sold.

Loyal PSA fan for years. I have spent a lot of hard earned money with them and own several of their firearms and have had no regrets. They get a lot of hate but they are hands down the best firearm company in America. Love their innovation and what they stand for, the rest of the firearm and ammunition companies in the industry should take note because PSA is the gold standard.
I like PSA never knew this story but you can tell by the customer support they do good business. Got a AR-V from them lots of fun.
