So...I have a Stag Model 1. I recently cracked the upper reciever (lesson learned) trying to take the barrel nut off. So I ordered a new Stag stripped upper and I ordered one with M4 feed ramps, thinking my gun is an M4 so it made sense. I wasnt home to look at my old one when I placed the order and I know now my old one did not have feed ramps. Did I order the wrong the one?

If your barrel does not have M4 feed ramps and your upper does, that's a problem. I thought that the Stag had M4 feed ramps though, so you may want to mock it up and see if it looks right. Pictures always help.

OK, pics added




Sorry they are crappy iphone pics, looks like it lines up ok but there is a little lip there.

You can hit that lip with a dremel easily. That's actually the way ADCO does it, so even if it sounds a little...improvised...it'll work fine as long as you don't go overboard.

Your barrel has rifle ramps and receiver has M4 cuts.
Do the Dremel deed with the barrel off the receiver....no need to muck up the receiver with the Dremel.

^^^ this.

as is, your ramp combo is NOT a recommended configuration and lacking modification you may encounter a lot of feeding issues.

Ok, how can you tell if you have m4 or rifle ramps? I guess I figured it out the hard way. Im giving it to someone who has the proper tools to reassemble it for me. He should know how to make it work.
