I'm all for another non-restricted semi AR style rifle but gee wiz, nothing but issues with the new platform.
My understanding is there was a bad batch in the early shipments that was not caught.

Mostly just mag issues and gas block issues. Very easy to fix.

Sounds like they didn’t loctite the set screws on the gas blocks and they are coming loose during shipping. Easy 5 minute fix.

I have an issue with the XCR-M mags dropping out when I pull the trigger. A round is stripped into the chamber, but the mag falls out. Sounds like it’s the mag catch spot not being milled deep enough. Easy fix by modifying the mags a bit.

I had to modify the back of my xcr mags to work in the Stag.
