STAG arms M4 upper, Flattop with A2 front site. $439
Rock River lower with six position collapsable stock, NM trigger. $275
MBUS rear sight. $55
Vortex Strikefire red dot sight. $150

Today at local gun show. The lower surprised me the most. I was going to buy it before I heard about the NM trigger.

Quik range report. Could only fire 70 rounds as I had to pick up the wife. Functioned as advertised. Accuracy @ 50yards with red dot and me off my elbow off the bench, 1.5 inches. Ammo was Hornady TAP training ammo. Steel cased, 55gr FMJ. Also Prvi partison (spelling) 55gr soft points. The POI with the Prvi was 1.5inches higher than the other zero.

MBUS: Windage was a little tight. It being plastic I was hesitant to go gorilla on it. Managed all right, got it to turn. Doesnt have very defined clicks. Overall, for what it is, am satisfied. Would recommend.

Vortex Red dot: The light is a little dim on maximum setting in direct sunlight. Not sure, but would guess its a 3MOA dot. Positive click adjustment. Made one large correction to bring the group up about 8 inches. Then a few smaller ones. Responded well. Forgot to bring the screw on 2x magnifier.

Plan to put 200 rounds through it tomorrow. I am happy so far with the accuracy. For what it is, that is fine. Want to move out to 100 and 200 yards and see what I can do.

Thanks, I was happy with the price before I learned of the trigger! Should be taking it out tomorrow, will follow up on how she does.
