The Ruger AR-556 Rifle 5.56 NATO is a semi-automatic rifle designed in the style of an AR-15. The AR-556 is constructed with aersopace-grade aluminum forgings and heat-resistant nylon for enhanced durability. A telescoping stock allows easy adjustment of the rifle’s overall length and ergonomic grips ensure comfortable shooting. A Ruger Rapid Deploy rear sight allows for quick adjustment for better accuracy, while the hammer-forged barrel reduces resistance for a faster, flatter shot to keep your shots on target. The gas block on this Ruger 556 is positioned at carbine length to better balance the gun for improved handling and maneuverability. Engineered for accuracy, the Ruger AR-556 5.56 NATO Rifle delivers comfortable, maneuverable shooting with classic style.
