The Stag 10s NR stripped receiver set thread

Mine is the same. I tried 4 different mag catches and the only one that worked was the Norgon Ambi Catch due to its inward angle in the magwell. The others I tried were DD, Colt, and Troy Ambi and they don't work. My mags are PMAGs and I also tried metal mags. I can take pics if you need.


Thanks Griffin, yours does appear the same. If you get the chance to try other mags, let me know.



This is fully seated with the match latch resting in the receiver, tightening it just pulls the button tighter into the spring and makes the threads protrude from the button... the only way I think I can get it to protrude further into the magwell would be to machine the receiver somewhat where the latch seats, or modify the magazine latch itself with a grinder around the stem and remove some material ?

This has what to do with this thread exactly?

Shawn

His original post was in this thread I believe. Looks like it’s been chopped out and put in their sub forum.

Are people no longer allowed legitimate complaints against sponsors?
 
On the right side, I have 2 small silver dents on the bottom of the magwel. I also noticed a machining mark right in front of the mag release on the left side. Overall it doesn't really bother me but will try to cover up those dent marks.
 
FINALLY finished my rifle...

Couple things to note:

- The stock trigger is awful. I've built dozens of rifles and this one is by far the worst. There is definitely some inconsistency with these. Early reports were that the triggers were pretty good.

- The takedown pin baaaarely fits in the lower receiver. It needs to be hammered in and out of place. AE offered to replace the pin, but it's the receiver that's out of spec. Hopefully it wears in, or I'll just hone it out myself. Not willing to send it back and wait for a replacement. Just something for others to be aware of.

Mine came with the same dings on the magwell too....
 
One of my sets has a fair sized chip out of it. I think TeeJay has two receiver sets that are chipped in the exact same spot. I’m not too happy that Arms East deleted both of our posts.

Deleted my post about the same issue, and some others that I encountered as well. I'm happy I got my receiver set finally, and I'll never do business with them again for a couple reasons.

Hi, nice rifle ;) (I stole your ideas for the stock)

My trigger was very nice for a "milspec" one.. I guess ymmv. It's now replaced by an eclipse though. The rear takedown pin on mine is fairly tight, but I can remove it with my fingers only. The front on I have to use a punch. It's not ridiculously tight, but tighter than the rear one.

How is the magpul bipod on the wieght balance? Do you feel it when it's on/off?

on the other side of the fence...... I could not be happier with my AE experience and they have earned a loyal customer. This was the first pre-order I have taken part in aside from pre-ordering krieger barrels.
Would absolutely deal with walter and the AE crew again.
 
There is no creep whatsover in the eclipse :) I still havent fired it yet though, but I can't see how that would make a difference.

Nice that's awesome. I really liked the weight, but maybe my experience was why they were revamped.
Excited to try my Timney Calvin Elite.
