Looks like a good entry level AR for those that don't want to build their own.

 

Ruger reliability and customer suppor (if you ever need it).  100% made in America.

 

Will be interesting to see how it is received.  Suggested retail price of $599.

 

1/8 twist

 

cold hammer-forged chrome-moly steel barrel

 

folding rear poly rear sight

 

telescoping six-position stock (another no-no in our nanny state)

Once they've been out there a while the OTC price will be around $500. People will buy these before doing a cheap build. Ruger should do very well with this.

Very nice!

Doubt that dealer cost is more than $500

Online retailers are listing it at $599.99.

 

Black Friday sales for $500.00 are likely.

Interesting.  Unlike the S&W Sport, it has an FA and dust cover.   And a 1:8 barrel for those who want to throw heavier bullets down range.  Should be a good seller.

Interesting price point for sure. I'd like to see how they hold up. They are saving money somewhere

Bushmaster OCRs can be had at the same price.
