Well, depending on your price range, Stag is a pretty good choice. For the money you'd spend on a Bushmaster, I'd recommend getting a LMT instead. Just my input.

Stag's a great gun especially for the price. I don't like Bushmaster ARs and I had lots of problems so I sold it. I then bought the Stag which is my one and only though at some point I'm going to invest in a high-end piston AR. I'll probably still keep the Stag.
Mine shoots great and has never had a hiccup after about 3k rounds and I use any cheap ammo but Wolf.
I'd recommend going with the cheapest model WITHOUT sights and with the railed gas block. Than modify it to your tastes.
DEFINITELY buy Green Eyes, Black Rifles by Kyle Lamb...it will save you a bunch of money. I wish I had.

CMMG is also a pretty good company offering quality AR's that are priced pretty well. I believe they still offer a life time warranty on their products. They have 'bargain bin' rifles also, basically ones that have been scratched or something due to storage. They're like $600, they always have them at the gun shows here, granted they're based in MO. There's plenty of options out there, for the price range Stag is great. LMT you're look at about $1000 or so. On a side note... 21 for a rifle? That sucks, 18 for rifles here and 21 for handguns.

Hey,
I bought a BM nine months ago and I still like it. However, had I read the above highlighted thread before the purchase, I would not have bought a BM.
Nothing is necessarily wrong with the BM, it's just that there seems to be a whole lot more that's right with some of the others.
By the way, this forum is the place to learn from the hard core guys. At least that's what I've discovered.
