OK, give me all opinions on this gun. My local gun shop has one for sale for just over $1000. It has the detachelble carry handle, sling mounts, chambered in .223.
A while back Stag was regarded as on of the most underated brands.
Don't know what model you are looking at, but for 1K your not getting a bad deal on a new gun. (sounds like it includes the carry handle)
Just 1 opinion. Since Obama I can't keep up with the pricing trends.
I have a Stag 2L AR-15 and LOVE IT. Never had a failure-to-feed or jam on it... shooting russian ammo too. I paid less than 1000$ for it myself, but given the circumstances that's not a bad deal IMO.
The original AR that I wanted was a STAG Model 2T. Definitely some of the best AR15s on the market, and were priced well pre-Obama. If you can get one anywhere around $1k, snatch it up.
Its a good price. The worst part is having to pay the tax with it being local. Honestly thought the tax doesn't start getting a lot more expensive than shipping and transfer fee until the cost of the rifle is well over 1000.
Most forums that I've seen would put Bushmaster on the top of that list. Personally I have a Stag and wouldn't trade it for either of those. All good guns IMO.
