hello all. i'm new to the boards and i wanted to know if you could help me with something. i just put a stag model 3 on layaway and i wanted to know if a) it was a good choice for someone who is new to ar-15's such as myself and b) if it would be a decent coyote/ varmint gun. any feedback helps, thanks :D
 
I bought the same model as my first AR. I have shot about 400 rds so far (had surgery so I am on the injured list) it was pretty good accuracy wise, 2 MOA @ 100, but I have not been able to run my hand loads to try and trim that down. I would recommend it to someone as well. The only things I would point out is if you want iron sights you need to mount the sight on the front sight block so it is slightly lower. Also the rail on the hand-guard is NOT a good place to put optics because if you mount a fore grip you can apply pressure and actually move the diamond hand-guard so if sights are mounted on it you will have a hard time sighting it in. The rail on the receiver is great for optic mounting so it shouldn't really be a problem unless you wanted a long eye relief mount. I do not use it to hunt, but I would see no problem with the game you intend.
