New Ruger AR
Has anyone seen in the flesh the new Ruger AR556? Apparently it is a direct impingement model and a lot cheaper than their piston model. I like what I saw a lot and am curious as to the street price.

I handled one today, as we have one for our Friends of NRA Dinner this evening. Nice looking gun, I have no idea on the price.

Ruger finally gives in, I see. I have to say that Stoner system ARs are much lighter up front than all the piston guns I have handled. Oddly enough the Ruger piston AR was one of the best balanced IMHO.
