AR- Woo Hoo!
Yup. Went to my favorite enabler (stole that from somebody here, thank you very much) and put a Stag Arms AR on layaway yesterday. I was torn between that or a Mini 14, but I kept hearing the Mini 14 has accuracy issues. I also picked up 40 rounds of .223. I think I'll grab a box or two every time I go in, so by the time I get the AR out (probably Spring) I'll have a whole lot of bang. I was looking at a DPMS, but the Stag had the forward assist and a dust cover. Can any Stag owners pass on any good info on this Zombie killer?
Next up comes an SR 9 for the boss lady and a 22/45 for cheap plinking. Maybe an AK next, or... ? Looks like that .30-30 just keeps getting farther and farther away. I'm confident I'll be able to buy a .30-30 this time next year, but the AR/AK, who knows?

Re: AR- Woo Hoo!
Congrats on the rifle!
I have 2 Stags and both are 100% reliable and accurate.
If you do some searching online,
I'm sure you'll find many many comments on their excellent quality, durability, etc.

Re: AR- Woo Hoo!
Ahhhhhh! Very nice pick up.
An AR is the way to go.
There are so many cool accessories, you will lose your mind.
If your going to buy a lot of ammo, buy it in bulk from online suppliers. It is cheaper than buying at your dealer.
And don't forget lots and lots of mags...Magpul P-Mags are the best.
Good ammo suppliers:

Re: AR- Woo Hoo!
Stag makes an accellent AR in fact you will find that a lot of companies contract stag to make various parts for them.
Good buy and hang in lay-awake is hard...

Re: AR- Woo Hoo!
Hey, folks-
Thanks for all the responses and advice. I'm going to stock up on mags, I figure 10 should be a good start. I buy ammo 20 rounds at a time. I know I don't get a price break, but it's easier to spend $8.99 at a time, many times, than it is to spend $150. once. It's like hoarding change. You don't miss it while you're saving it, but when you count it up you have something.
True, layaway is a long, drawn out affair, but I have a few toys to keep me occupied while I pay down the balance. Springtime will be here before you know it, and I'll be zeroing for zombies! Hey, I like that one. New sig line, coming up!

Re: AR- Woo Hoo!
Nice. I wish I could get back that feeling I had when I bought my first AR. I've acquired several since and I didn't feel the same as I did after I got my first one.
While I have no experience with Stag rifles, I've built two AR's on Stag stripped lowers and I have no complaints.
You have no excuses now for not having a rifle for ACSHA action shoots when they start up again next spring.
