Hi, I'm building my first AR-15, and I wanted to know if you guys preferred a stag lower or a PSA lower, and I am going for a budget build, and what is currently available at PSA.  Thanks

Meh... they all look the same to me.

I went for the cheapo Anderson lowers and they look great.
Cope's had a really good deal for Blems $41.99 and flat $9.95 shipping.  PSA's $49.99 price is good for non-blem but if you buy more than one, the $7 shipping per lower adds up quick.


Unless you care about a lightweight lower or a specific logo, go cheaper.

Just different roll marks.   Pick which is cheaper or which roll mark you prefer

I went with Stag before I really knew anything about the different lowers and impulse bought at a gun show. If you want a big buck on your lower, which you hardly notice unless you colorfill, buy the Stag. If you can get something cheaper and don't care about roll marks save some money and put it elsewhere.

I do not regret my stag, it got the ball rolling but I could have saved a little money and bought something else.

Range Tool company lower.  No ugly roll marks!

Some of the blems I have purchased have no blem on them.  (Either that, or I am tolerant after looking at Colt lowers...)  Some of their blems have a SN that begins with "BLEM". Some don't.

SHARP lowers.

A lower is a lower get the one that has the rollmark you like.

Since you are going for the budget build PSA would be the way to go.
