  1. [New] Stag Arms Model 3TH-M Upper Halves Now Available!

    Model-3HT-MIncorporating the evolution of shooting tactics and rifle accessory technology, we created our Model 3TH-M rifle, and due to popular demand, we are now offering the upper half separately. The Model 3TH-M provides the shooter with an upper half which is readily usable with many of today’s shooting styles.

    Working with multiple law enforcement agencies, a few of which learned speed and accuracy from our 3-Gun shooting team, we have tested and determined the features and configuration which works best with these new tactics.

    Utilizing these upper halves, shooters are able to produce fast and accurate shots from close to long range as is needed in tactical situations and competitions.

    Team Stag ArmsTeam Stag Arms’ Jesse Tischauser and Kalani Laker have been lighting up the 3‑Gun circuit late in the season.

  4. Fast and Accurate: Red Dot Sight Techniques

    Red-Dot-SightRed dot sights have revolutionized many types of shooting. Combining advantages of iron sights and rifle scopes, they also bring advantages that no previous sighting system has offered. Whether you are in combat, competition, or hunting dangerous game, red dot sights can allow you to use your skill to the greatest potential.

    Unfortunately, most shooters are not using their red dot sights to the sight’s greatest potential.

    The great improvement is speed, without decreasing accuracy. Red dot sights put you on target faster than iron sights and faster than magnified optics. In order to take advantage of that speed, a shooter must understand where it comes from and how to use the sight to maximize these advantages.

    The first advantage is that the reticle is on the same focal plane as the target. When the eye is focused on the target, it is also focused on the reticle. Aiming is faster than with iron sights. The shooter does n

  5. Fixing Magazine Malfunctions


    magazines.jpg
    A well-built AR-15 is one of the most reliable semi-auto firearms available. But sometimes even the best rifles may malfunction, and when they do, it is time to diagnose the cause of the malfunction.

    One of the first components that should be investigated is the magazine.

    Magazines get dirty. They vary in quality and dimension from manufacturer to manufacturer. Springs wear out and bodies get bent or broken. Magazines get dropped on the ground and stepped on. Most AR-15 malfunctions are related to lube, ammo, or magazines, or a combination.

    We will look at some common magazine issues, and clear up some confusion surrounding terminology.

    1.) Hard seating (it is difficult to push the magazine deep enough into the magazine well to allow the magazine catch to engage

  6. Stag Arms Now Offering American & Gadsden Flag Engravings On Their Rifles

    Engraved-AR-15-LowersSTAG ARMS, one of the world’s largest AR-15 manufacturers, is now adding specialized laser engravings on rifles and lowers with the American or Gadsden Flag on the magazine well.

    These two new engravings are in addition to the extremely popular second amendment engraving. Unlike an imprint or coating, laser engravings penetrate through the anodized layer to the metal underneath, which makes it impossible to wear off.

    STAG ARMS Sales Manager David DeFord said, “Everyone at our factory is proud of the USA and we are very vocal about our second amendment rights. We wanted our customers to be able to show the same patriotism.”

    Engraved Rifles and Lowers

    The cost for the engraving is $15.00 and must be requested at the time the order is placed. The engraving canno

    @kyleighshoots Stag Arms Sponsored 3 Gun Shooter
    Shooting sports are becoming more and more popular across the nation. Shooters of all ages and skill levels take part in shooting competitions that provide for a fun and competitive atmosphere. Everyone is welcome and there are a wide array of events to choose from. The NRA alone
    sanctions over 11,000 shooting competitions each year.

    Three gun competitions, which include shooting with a pistol, rifle, and a shotgun, are among the most popular. This competition has fast-paced action, unlike the traditional target competitions where targets are often static. In the three-gun competition, you score points by hitting different targets with each of the three guns. However, each of these competitions is made up by the range officer or competition coordinator, so no two matches will be the same. There is a lot of preparation that goes into these shooting

    All rifles and upper halves with sights installed from the factory are bore sighted to 25 yards. The process takes some patience, but you will be spending valuable time getting to know your new rifle while making it as accurate as possible.

While there are laws that prohibit hunting with an AR-15 rifle in some states, below are some details about which AR-15 rifles should be used for hunting and where you can use them to hunt.
     

    Know Hunting Laws

    First, you should know the laws for hunting deer and other game with specific types of guns and ammunition in each state so that you don’t accidentally break the law when you start hunting.
