I'd go find a more "worthy" lower for 130 bucks and then save the Stag for a Stag-level build.


I'm open to suggestions on replacing the lower, but I'd want to keep the bolt, trigger group, etc for now. Not looking to spend $1300.

So what lower would you get?

LOWERS

Disredgard the stupid zombie logo, it's still a Rainier Arms lower

BCM lower, no stock

UPPER

BCM upper $535



BOOM! under $1000 for the upper and lower, just add rail (simple magpul forearm will do for most people) and sights. SO maybe just over $1000 for a great rifle that will outlast you and a company that will back up their product.

Yep, as they mentioned I'd go Mega, BCM, Rainier, etc. Anything in that category will probably (and nonsensically) make the rifle seem more complete if you ever want to resell it. Any billet lower too, but that's even harder to justify $$$ wise.

Does Spike's still make lowers? I've never used one but back when I was doing builds people seemed to like them pretty well.

Matching Mega billet upper and lower set all day everyday. From a looks and fit/function standpoint it's the F150 of the AR receiver world.
