I'm on my third PSA .308 right now. The first was a 1st gen. I didn't get to shoot it a lot before I sold it to help fund the move from ID to OK. When I got it the gas tube was slightly kinked where it went thru the delta ring. Sent it back and PSA sent me a new one. But what little I did shoot with it, it worked fine.
Bought my second, a 3rd gen, and shot it a little more. It worked quite well and was capable of some pretty good accuracy. I traded it to a buddy in Bailey early this year. He shoots it a lot and says he loves it.
I'm now on my third PSA .308 and it's by far the nicest rifle. I bought a complete 3rd gen lower and a complete Sabre upper. I'm into it for just over $900 because PSA always has good sales/free shipping...and transfers at my FFL of choice are only $10. Saved about $150 buying upper and lower separately and by using the standard 3rd gen lower instead of a Sabre lower...because the good stuff is in the upper. Uses MagPul mags and parts are plentiful from PSA. The Sabre also comes with an adjustable gas system. I'm really pleased with it so far. Only about 200 rounds of older Federal XM762 GI ammo thru it but it's been perfect...haven't touched the gas adjust at all. I don't really shoot for the best accuracy possible but it'll shoot 2" groups with that ammo pretty consistently. I'm the weak link in the accuracy dept. I haven't tried anything better but I do have a decent supply of 168gr and 175gr GMM ammo and I'll try some of that eventually.
The only down side to buying upper and lower separately is you won't get any mags. But that wasn't a big deal for me because I already had some.
