Stag uppers & parts aren't fancy, but they work, they use the same CMT sourced parts that a lot of other "manufacturers" and retailers sell. +1 to all this.

Just thought I'd show you the optic I will be putting on my Sig 522 when I get it... this is my son's rifle and he enjoys it thoroughly, but Pop's gets the SIG.

I like them. I paid more for this one a few months ago. I'd actually rather have a fixed stock. If yours is a Ranch Rifle, be prepared to replace the rear sight with one that works.

Forgive me if I am wrong, I am far from an NFA expert. But those FCG parts are pretty much irrelevant without an auto sear and a drilled receiver. There's nothing there that would make your AR-15 a machine gun if you put those parts in it. Your selector might flip to the third position but it wouldn't do anything. Olympic used to sell AR-15s with M-16 hammers installed. Unless you get more thrust per squeeze, I think it is legal.

And, from a cursory reading of the first web page, this is on top of a C&R discount, if you have one with them. I'm going to order tonight and let you all know for sure.

Putting it on the bottom of the gasblock negates the benefit of having a free-float rail. Mount it to the free-float rail, your groups will thank you.

It is really solid. If the rain will go away then I will give it a good all around test. Rain rain go away!

I am no expert, by any definition of the word. LOL But it does look good, it feels good, it has one lever that you don't have to adjust instead of two you do. That's about all I can say. Wait till agony gets a look at it, he'll be able to give you an informed opinion.
