And you can buy a brand spanking new Colt 6920 for $1050, all day long.
Heck, and if you are patient, you can pick up used Colt ARs in the $700-800 range. From CDNN and other retailers.
So, why would anyone buy an "upgraded" gun from a company that normally turns out substandard product? This is what I do not get.

Yes, there is "something wrong with it".
Because you're talking about a shitty product which is priced almost exactly the same as an excellent product.
And for just $100 more, you "might" be able to upgrade that steaming pile of shit to something approximating the excellent product.
Sure, it's their money, but that doesn't change the fact that those who buy them are ****ing idiots.

As usual, agree wholeheartedly w/ 120!! Why would I buy an " upgraded" Stag, if I can get a real-deal Colt for the same money??
Among other things, in CT you can't own a Colt AR-15 or sporter. I think the Stag equivalent to the Colt 6920 is a wash, price-wise, after the plus package. The thing I am trying to get a handle on is, is the Stag with the plus package really a"shitty product" or not? If so, why? Issues with the barrels, as Grumpy noted, would seem to say yes. That's the first concrete thing I've seen.
I generally support Stag's option of this. To me its just a fine example of American business and the free-market. They are exanding their product line to meet more demand and a larger customer base.
That being said, I still probably wouldn't buy one, at least just yet.
