Correct me if I am wrong, or I misunderstood, but you say it runs with the suppressor installed... with the Adj. GB gas fully clicked "off" or 0.
I just checked, it will function with the gas minimal when suppressed and I get lock back unsuppressed at position 2, I leave it at 3 to be slightly over gassed. Position 4 5 6 would likely be beneficial for milsurp and cheap stuff.
I bought a billet model in 6.5 Creedmoor. I cleaned and lubed it. Took it to the range. And it ran perfectly. I had some reloads left over from another project. It is extremely accurate. The reloads we’re 140 gr Sierra Game Kings with H4350. PSA is test firing them now from what I read. The gun had some carbon build up in it when I received it. So that’s probably why my gas block was dialed in. Normally I‘m not this lucky.
Its practically an M110 clone, is everything on it clone correct or in spec with the M110, no probably not but it is pretty much an M110 clone just like the PSA Dagger is a knockoff Glock or “clone”, the PSA Jakl is not by any means an ACR but is it basically an ACR clone especially with the sexy F5 stock? I’d say so, at least by the looks, the feel and the details of the FDE Sabre 10 with the added bipods and a “deployment bag” as well as the ambidextrous controls, the A1 stock, the quad rail, the neglected PSA logo on the mag well. It’s all apples and oranges brother so overall I think it’s safe to say it is a clone especially when you have literally everyone else saying it’s practically a clone like MAC and 110sass actual! But that’s just my two cents on it
log off, don't return for a week
My point exactly…. it doesn’t have to be perfectly clone correct to be “clone-ish”. Hell some clone parts are so damn hard to find it’s near impossible and need an act of God to find all clone correct parts like the Mk12 for example. But put the KAC and PSA side by side and they’re pretty much 80%-90% identical.
What part(s) of the PSA Sabre Billet are clone correct for a Knight's M110? Be specific. I have nothing against the Sabre, and think it's an excellent value, but to claim it is a clone, which PSA has never done, is naïve at best. Or guntuber clickbait for "likes".
So since I must have the understanding of a “clone” all wrong then what exactly makes a firearm a clone of the original? Since the M110 was developed from the SR-25 someone would have to buy an SR-25 and buy M110 parts to then add them to the rifle so then would it even be considered a clone, or would it be a clone-ish?

NEW Palmetto State Armory Sabre-10A1
The new PSA Sabre-10A1 has similar vibes to the Army's M110A1, but is available for civilian purchase with a base price of $1199.99.
Sounds about right i haven’t watched the whole thing yet. Quantity over quality seems to be PSAs motto at this point
I mean yeah. I want them to succeed but they seem to not really care. From top to bottom though they seem to not acknowledge their quality control issues. Both in their ammo and firearms.
I have not seen a single quality control issue with anything from PSA ever.
I second this. The Sabre M110 is a rifle I really want to add to my arsenal, however it seems as of right now from everyone who’s been reviewing them except MAC that they have major reliability issues but somehow MAC got his running like a dream out the box….. nonetheless I think it’s great they’re coming out with very affordable firearms that are similar renditions of very iconic firearms and I can’t wait to get the Jakl for an ACR similar style rifle although I haven’t heard any issues with the Jakl so I think it’s good to go as well as the Dagger which is a Glock knockoff with improvements out the box. So I agree that PSA needs to do better with quality control because there is absolutely zero excuses on why their M110 Sabre line are having reliability issues. Quality over quantity is a must.
The PSA rendition M110 has been nothing but a malfunctioning mahem since they’ve released them…. There have been issues with failure to feeds & the gas system and I remember correctly it’s been mostly due to the rifle being under gassed. I thought it was just the .308 version but I just watched Administrative Results video and his is a 6.5 and he had gas issues I believe he sent it back for them to drill the gas block to allow more gas to escape so the rifle can cycle properly instead of jamming and the same with the .308. To add to this the 6.5 will only run with Pmags which it comes with in the box but Texas Plinking said he was gonna try different brands for metal mags to see if any metal mags run with it like for instance Larue metal mags might but then you’re paying out the a** for that nonessential luxury if you really wanted to run it with metal mags like the KAC M110 does for that authentic vibe.
I think there are enough PSA haters in the world to scare anybody that’s lacking any confidence in their abilities to deal with a problem. So yes. Anybody that’s afraid of any challenges should strictly stick to the high-dollar firearms. At least when those have an issue - people get to bitch and whine even louder because dammit they paid a lot of money for that privilege.
You must be looking at the wrong one, the M110 rendition is all FDE with an FDE barrel and there’s even a black version that I’m assuming is an SR-25 or Mk 11 Mod 0 rendition but it looks exactly the same as the Sabre M110 except all blacked out including the barrel. But idk if it’s the same price or cheaper, I was considering getting that if it came back in stock before the FDE version.
Yea I’ve been seeing nothing but problems with the M110 line so I was gonna wait till a Mk 2, Mod 1 whatever they’d call it to come out that addresses those issues before I pull the trigger on buying one. Unfortunately everyone in this thread is right about one thing it’s not worth the buy if it’s unreliable you might as well buy an Aero or another brand and do your best to try to “clone” it to the best of your abilitie.
Yea that’s the M110A1 rendition, it has a 16” barrel and is suppose to be a “clone” of the U.S. Army’s SDMR that is made by HK and derives from the 417 with a 16” barrel chambered in 7.62x51 for the squads designated marksman. It replaced the M110 in where carrying a 20” M110 SASS is “too big” for some operations its basically a compact M110 SASS and was originally dubbed M110A1 CSASS for (Compact Semi-Automatic Sniper System) but the Military like everything else they get they change the name like always. The huge difference besides modularity and a more updated model is that the M110A1 is made by HK like I mentioned where as the M110 SASS is made by KAC.
this is a really, really, dumb take on things. PSA essentially uses it's buyers and product testers given the QC send backs, issues, and the like
We've all read your opinion of PSA products.
It’s really upsetting to know that you could buy a very affordable firearm say something like a BCM and that you should expect to be able to trust that rifle with your life if needed considering that’s the point in buying the rifle in the first place, reliability. But for it to be a POS right out of the box especially for PSA their name is just as big as BCM I’d expect the same quality so I agree that at least the M110 series is trash unfortunately until they get their head out of their ass
