If you never try you will always fail.

  If both upper and lower are Oly. And they were made for each other then pretty good. Oly's have a problem with switching uppers to lowers and visa versa. I would go with Bushmaster. My 2 cents

  What a great day! I have one convert! Thank you kbbandit for being accurate in your description.
  
  I think the Oly rifles are generally less well-regarded than Colt and Bushmaster, but they are fine for plinking and defense.

  I'm real happy with my PCR, it more accurate than I thought it would be, good enough to hunt groundhogs.

  The only problem I had with Olympic Arms AR's involved using cheap Chinese ammo, it would not feed or not eject it. Use good ammo and it worked like a charm. This was about 5 or 6 years ago. I still prefer the old Colt SP1 though. It has never let me down.

  I've been very pleased with my Oly PCR-4. I did have to polish the feed ramps when brand new, it would not feed hollowpoints.
  
  Since then it is very reliable and very accurate, I would buy another.
