Do A2 removable carry handles have cross bolts that engage in the picatinny slots?
Yes sir.
I've never had one, but my friend brought his new AR shooting for the first time, and his had none, and the shots refused to group when we tried to zero it...I thought it was odd. The AR was a Stag, I thought those had a good rep.
Nevermind.
You didn't see Stags rep being good on this board. Not as a serious use rifle anyway.:stop:
My mistake! I'm an AR snob, and stay on the top end when it comes to gear, so I never really paid attention to brands like Stag.
My friend wouldn't listen to me when I tried to guide him in his first AR purchase; he wanted one that looked "neat", and so bought an A4, thinking it was an A2. He didn't know about the removable carry handle I think, but he's exited that he can put a "scope" on it someday...
I've been shooting ARs for over 30 years, and I'm afraid I don't have much patience for a noob who won't listen, so I'm just going let him find his own way on this.
Most I've dealt with were Colt and armalite. They have cross bolts.
Even UTG's have crossbolts.
Stags/CMT have crossbolts too
