I've purchased a new Palemtto State Armory KS-47 rifle. RDA was my FFL for this buy, always a great experience. Now for the rifle. The rifle came from PSA and well lets just say it was blemished, scratches on the reciever below the forward assist. The rail had paint chips from assembly. Upon disassembly and cleaning that seemed to be the only disappointments. Taking the rifle to the range, I am saying this is a great shooting AR platform. No issues with 3 different kinds of ammo (two steel case, 1 brass). I put about 250 rounds through it and it cycled everytime. It is way more accurate than my CIA C39V2 which surprised me. It seems to not care what magazines I used (5 different kinds). At the price of $700, I think this is a great 7.62x39 AR15 type rifle. I'll give it 4 outta 5 stars. It is lighter than an AK, ahas AR controls, and seems to be quite reliable so far. PSA needs improvment in QA however. I do plan to use this a camo paint experiment, so I am OK with it.

Sounds like a great rifle. Price is attractive and of course you have RDA as the FFL so the experience was good right out of the gate. Did this one come in the 16" barrel with a standard bird cage on the end? That is basically the same rifle I have been trying to build but I have to finish home projects for me, my son and my mother first. Enjoy it and send pics on the camo experience.
