Back in March, I purchased a lower parts kit for a future "evil black rifle" build. When I went to assemble the lower a few weeks ago, the buffer tube had something like RTV or a piece of rubber band on the threads. The anodizing didn't stick and I had a bare spot.
I emailed PSA, sent a couple pics of the bare spot and got a reply from Dylan. He said they would send out another buffer tube. Got the free replacement buffer tube yesterday in the mail
Nice to do business with a company that stands behind their products
