    Stake the castle nut, check your gas key (most likely needs staked as well), and add an H or H2 buffer (as Stags are over gassed).


    Enjoy your rifle.

    And why the heck did you loctite your receiver extension instead of staking it?

    As far as I'm concerned, it's a bit ridiculous to manufacture a left ejecting AR but not manufacture an ambidextrous lower to match it. Where it ejects is of less importance than the manipulation of the weapon.
    They do manufacture the lower to match it, just like the righty lower with the lefty upper because it works well. I am working on getting the mag release and ambi selecter installed, just out of funds for the moment. As far as the buffer goes, I did notice the rifle likes to sting my face a little with each round, h buffer on payday along with the selecter and mag release. As for the core on my grip, its the one that came with it and I dont need a compartment for batteries or another bcg due to my ta47-2 that is on its way. No need for batteries

    Would H3 be too heavy?

    Probably not, but could cause issues with cheap ammo.

    I've officially gotten some range time and now have some insight to share with all. I have gotten 287 flawless rounds through my upper. Running drills up against walls and in tight spaces have yeilded me some very positive results. No more brass bouncing off the walls and down my gear or into my face. Open sights I can hold MOA or better standing with no support at 50-75 yards. Barrel doesn't heat up that much under rapid fire drills(could be the weather, though with temps in the teens and very low 20's). Preforms great, rifle does what it was intended to do(cqb role, no more than 100 yards at longest), and with a new Magpul VFG2, rail mounted green laser sight(for shots less than 20 yards), a2 front sight gas block replaced with a RRA MK12 lowpro gas block and running a set of MBUS on my samson Star-C rail, my carbine comes in just over 7lbs(right at 7.2 actually ), I'd say Stag got this one right. I also switched the standard buffer out with an H buffer per some suggestions above due to the bolt feeling like it was slamming into the stock one a little hard and was acutally cutting into the stock buffer. Things have since calmed with the new H buffer and what little felt recoil was before, is no longer. I have also since switched to using pmags and can't say that I miss the Lancers all that much. They match the rest of my Magpul Advertisment Ill update pics as soon as my TR47 gets here in the coming weeks.

    As with all good things, there has to be atleast one grip to make it fair. When my stamp gets in to sbr it, going to probably just sell the upper due to replacing the barrel is going to be a b1tch. I am going to be running a 300 blackout on this reciever and cannot find anyone or anywhere that can seem to fit the barrel to my lefty upper. Will probably just run a standard right handed upper for this particular build after i sbr it. Updated pic of my rifle below, lmk what yall think!
