Ruger SR 556

Anyone have an opinion on these yet?

Looks cool. Knowing Ruger I'm surprised they are even selling these. They seem to be one step ahead of the Gov. when it comes to restrictions. And also knowing Ruger I bet the trigger is a clean 15lbs or higher from the factory.

I'll take 2 please. One for each hand

Looks awesome! I might have to sell an AK!

What are these going for? I found one site that showed MSRP of $1999. For that price, I'll get a POF!

Very cool. I am very positive about Ruger doing this. The Fudds will hopefully become more willing to buy them, and accept them and possibly fight to keep them around if/when BHO tries to go after them. Right now it is a hot issue and Pelosi knows the losses from last time can not be had again. She will wait for the right time to put it in when they can accept losses, or they will just slowly take things little at a time and never put in a BIG AWB, just little restrictions here and there....death by 1000 cuts.

The Ruger is a good thing. I don't see the point of buying one myself since I already have several others, but they look very nice.

I like the adjustable gas system, it's gas piston operated...chromed internals (just about everything, bolt, barrel, gas piston, etc) but still has the standard charging handle location & forward assist.. if it's gas piston operated, I'd like to see a bolt handle instead, and an option of a folding stock... but that's just me...

given the gas system, and the features, if it were under $1000, it'd fly off the shelves... the MSRP of $2k is high
initial street prices seem closer to $1500...

I like this quote that I read on arfcom:
"Awesome.

With the crazy demand blowback from the election, and another major mfg like Ruger (isn't Para getting in, too?), there'll be a glut on the market in a few months. Add to that the competition effect, and we're looking at a Golden Age of civilian-legal "assault" rifles. "

I think he could have a point there...

I've got two on the way. Hope they shoot well.
