That's BS. Nothing wrong with Bushmaster except from the opinions of a few know-nothing snobs that aren't qualified to give their opinions.

Based on what?

Stag components don't have the value of Spikes or PSA. 


Stag, while fairly new to commercial full build sales, has been a major component supplier to the gov't for decades. Think Colt and FN make 100% of every rifle in-house? No small chance you can buy a Colt AR with a Stag barrel, receiver, trigger group, bolt assembly, or lower.

I agree with tiddles on waiting on the optic and get a good sling. I like the VTAC slings. I was also just given a free (company built an upper for me and didn't pin the gas tube to the block) Frank Proctor "way of the gun" sling. It's a minimalist sling option that doesn't need any hardware to mount. Its $30 and you don't have to buy QD mounts and swivels etc. I was surprised at how nice such a cheap and simple sling could be. The way it attaches is pretty smart ("why didn't I think of that?").

All my "opinions" come from AR15.com

I do not have any opinion on the reliability/rep of any company based on actual ownership. This is from what I have heard.

Stag is a good company from what I've read. Just didn't get the upgrades like PSA and Spike for the same amount of money. That's all
