Thank You Slinger...T/C makes some very accurate guns (my Encore .50 cal. muzzleloader will put 5 Power Belt bullets into 1 ragged hole at 100 yards)....that may explain why my AR is so accurate.

There are relatively few companies that produce the bulk of the parts for ARs. I am pretty sure that CMT makes the recievers for the S&W, or at least did when they were first introduced. I don't think companies like to go around saying "yes thats our name on the product, but we don't really make any part of it" and thats where a lot of confusion comes into play. Also when certain companies are maxed out, I wouldn't be supprised if they subcontracted to others to help fill orders.
Hello,
Unfortunately we are not informed here in customer service as to who our various suppliers for those parts might be. They are all assembled here at Smith & Wesson however.

The mystery remains...
At least we know they use LMT. I got my S&W OR this morning. The trigger pull is 5.5lbs., but it's got some creep. The other S&W I handled had to be over 7lbs. Definitely a nice gun for the money.
In Patrick Sweeney's "The AR-15", Volume Two, Mr. Sweeney states that S&W's rifle's receiver is indeed manufactured by Continental Machine & Tool or CMT. Stag morphed out of CMT by a family member. Mr. Sweeney also states the components are in the S&W rifle are CMT. Hope this helps.
