Stag Arms is a firearms manufacturer founded in May 2003 and located in New Britain, Connecticut. Stag Arms is a manufacturer of the AR-15 type rifle, marketed as Stag-15 rifles. Stag advertises that all their weapons and accessories are made in the United States. They are perhaps best known for their left-handed AR-15 rifles, which use a mirror imaged upper receiver and have the ejection port reversed for left-handed shooters and the safety selector control on the right side of the lower receiver.[1]
In California, Stag Arms are known for their "off-list" status, making their receivers legal to build AR type rifles with. Since Stag Arms are not a manufacturer listed by name on the Department Of Justice's Kasler list, it renders the receiver legal, as long as all laws are followed when building an AR-type rifle.
