I'm finally an AR owner!!

Post by AirForceAce357 »

I've been wanting an AR for 10 years but never had the money. Well, I finally was able to save up for one and brought it home last night. It's a Stag Model 2. Got it off Gunbroker and had it sent to a buddy of mine who does FFL transfers on the side from his garage/shop.

When I went to pick it up I brought along some aftermarket parts I wanted installed to make the gun easier for me to run efficiently as a lefty(I've shot plenty of ARs before just never owned one) or just for personal preference. The parts were:

Magpul MOE stock
MOE Grip
MOE trigger guard
Troy ambi mag release
Ambi selector
BCM gunfighter charging handle
KZ single point sling plate
Magpul BAD lever.

the sling is a basic single point sling made by Tactical Assault Gear.

Haven't had a chance to shoot the gun yet and probably won't til after I get paid again which means next weekend at the earliest. But from my fondling and inspection it feels great and seems quite functional. I'm super happy to finally have one after all this time. Have a feeling that it'll be so much fun ill end up as the newest member of the BRD support group but I'm sure I've got plenty of company ;)



Anyway here is an obligatory pic.

The U.S. Army beat you to that one. EBR = Enhance Battle Rifle = refurbished M14 w/new furniture and nice Leopold scope. They are issued to designated marksman at the squad level for longer range capability in SW Asia.
