[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 761377, member: 229"] Huh? This is not true - even now that Stag doesn't make Smith's lowers anymore, its not like Smithy's are a huge step up in any category of the chart (and I own an M&P 15). ... other than having a much cooler logo on the side of it (a damn Deer - who puts that on the side of a "Black rifle"?!?!?!?!?!? You might as well paint it yellow and green!). Avoid the Olympic Arms rifle. There are several other choices out there in that price-range that are better. Also - avoid Double Star Rifles like the plague. They come with a bilboard of literature touting "Mil-Spec" even though there's almost nothing about them that is Mil-spec. These were $600 when they were over-priced before the election - there is no excuse to pay more than that for them now. BTW - not all Bushmaster's have chrome-lined barrels (same is true of several different models of CMMG, RRA, DPMS, Model1, etc...). Read the fine print on the particular model you're buying. [/QUOTE]
