    I really like my STAG 2 Upper.
    Wasn't sure about them at first, but was pleasantly surprised with the quality.

    I have owned Colt, DPMS & RRA rifles.

    FYI: This is a "proper" staked key:

    If you have been doing your research, you will NOT buy a Stag.

If you want to spend $1,400-$2,000 for an AR go ahead, I'll keep spending $800-$900 and spend a the rest on ammo.
    I apologize if it came off the wrong way, maybe it I would have left the first part out. But as you can see just because someone like CMT makes receivers for various companies does not mean they are all the same or within the same spec perameters.

    As far is if Stag is a bad rifle I have no idea, I know it is hard to find at this point in time but i Purchased a DDM4v1 for 1150 no tax shipped this time last year. I would say the the sum of the quality parts inspected and installed correctly exceed the 250-300$ difference of a stag. The way I see it if you decided to make the upgrades to bring a stag up to the standard of a DD it would surpass that 250-350$

    I feel like this 50/50 lol. Only reason is because in the "custom" 1911 world all parts are over sized and hand fitted to my knowledge. If you dont have the people that are as good as the customers of your 1911 parts at fitting then i can see the disconnect between a customer of you parts making a better 1911 than the manufacturer of the part.

    Unlike AR receivers they should be plug and play if in spec correct?

    jmar93, do not go down this path of tit for tat come backs. Disagree if you want but do not start going down that rabbit hole of come back insults.

    I have a Stag I bought when they first came out. At the time it was probably $400 or $500 less than a 6920. Improper staking, the ARMS sight doesn't sit flat on the rail, non-spec steel, no park under the front sight base, etc. The taken down pin has to be hammered out and the safety does not move as smoothly as on my LMT.

    However, it's never given me any issues. I have put around 500 rounds through it at a time as fast as I could pull the trigger with no problems. It's good enough for 90% to 95% of the shooting people with ARs do but the fit, finish, and materials are not as good as my LMT.
