Well I'm ordering this one from the net lol I just went to my local dealer (Guns & Knives/Arizona Shooting Range) to find out how it would cost to get it through them, yea, it's not happening lol they wanted $1200.00!!! o.0 lol screw that, I'll just order it for $949. and pay the $25 S&H (I think it's $25.) from StagArms.com or search else where on the web for better prices...
I though this was pretty cool, thought I would post it, I found this on their site.
"Founded in May of 2003, Stag Arms LLC is one of the leading manufacturers of rifles and rifle components. What began as a sister company to a corporation with over 30 years experience manufacturing Aerospace and rifle parts, Stag Arms has grown into a nationwide phenomenon with the introduction of their Stag 15L – the world’s first true left handed rifle of its kind. Stag Arms has since grown into one of the largest AR-type manufacturers in the world. We at Stag Arms are proud to say that all of our major rifle components are manufactured in house, and are therefore made in America.

Mattalica just look at the other threads title S&W or something to that effect.
If you like the M&PT I will sell you mine once it gets back from Smith. I decided to just get a Colt. Its cheaper to get the S&W tactical model then to add all of the stuff to a stag.
i've got an M&P15. its the basic version with a detachable carry handle. paid 900 +tax for it from a local dealer. since i'm using it for patrol, i took it to a carbine class. ran around 800 rounds through it. i purposely did not clean the gun during the class as i wanted to see how grungy i could get it before it started acting up. by the 3rd day, it started getting gritty, but it didnt malfunction. all i did was squirt some lube in through the open ejection port and it was enough.
only really had 2 malfunctions with it, neither were due to the gun itself. the first was caused by a blown primer that got jammed up in the locking lugs.
the second was a mag failure where the follower got stuck on one of the dimple welds and wouldnt push the rounds up into the chamber.
the gas key is staked from the factory and the screws are tight. i check it every time i break the rifle down to clean it.
only real issue was something i wouldnt even have noticed unless i didnt change the part out. and it was a fault of stag, not S&W. i replaced the A2 grip with a tango down. the TD grip wouldnt line up correctly and there was a huge gap. come to find out the screw hole in the lower receiver was milled incorrectly. i talked to someone at TD who informed me of this and how to fix it by drilling out the hole in the grip so that it would snug up. once i did that, it was taken care of.
i havent done price comparisons so i really dont know how much cheaper a complete stag is compared to a basic M&P. i do know that the M&P "A" version comes with a troy BUIS whereas the stag comes with an ARMS 40 BUIS. i've read where people are having issues zeroing the rifle due to elevation problems with the ARMS.
also the M&P15T comes with troy rails and front and rear flip sights. the local dealer has this version for 1250 +tax. seems like a heck of a deal with the troy parts.
i'm no expert. dont profess to be. I used an m16a2 when i was in the army years ago. i'm using this one until it falls apart, which i dont foresee happening too soon.
That's sick!Originally Posted by nelybarg
Well, great to hear! lol compared to what I heard some other people go though when they first got it, I hope mine is as sick!
That's good to hear! but either way it wouldn't be a problem, a monkey could stake it lol or as a I read :P lol for real though, it looks like a 1, 2, BANG! you're done job to stake a carrier key lolthe gas key is staked from the factory and the screws are tight. i check it every time i break the rifle down to clean it.
Just so I know, How did the rep at TD inform of how to do this? What were the rep's instructions?only real issue was something i wouldnt even have noticed unless i didnt change the part out. and it was a fault of stag, not S&W. i replaced the A2 grip with a tango down. the TD grip wouldnt line up correctly and there was a huge gap. come to find out the screw hole in the lower receiver was milled incorrectly. i talked to someone at TD who informed me of this and how to fix it by drilling out the hole in the grip so that it would snug up. once i did that, it was taken care of.
I'm not interested in those BUIS's. for now the A3 removable handle will do fine, for later I will be putting on some form of a scope or whatever loli havent done price comparisons so i really dont know how much cheaper a complete stag is compared to a basic M&P. i do know that the M&P "A" version comes with a troy BUIS whereas the stag comes with an ARMS 40 BUIS. i've read where people are having issues zeroing the rifle due to elevation problems with the ARMS.
There's only two reason's why I'm going for Stag over S&W
1) The Warranty.
2) The Price for the same weapon.
If S&W offered the Lifetime Warranty I would go for them, yes, the S&W name would make me feel better 0lol

heres the post i made at another forum about the issue:
http://www.glocktalk.com/showthread....hreadid=588262
pictures had been posted, but they've since disappeared
also, heres a report i did about the class i took if you're interested

BUIS are a must if the weapon isnt a range only item
I properly stake every carrier before it leaves my shop and change out the extractor inserts and install a Crane O-Ring. This is a FREE service that I provide to my customers.Originally Posted by Mattallica
