I was wanting to buy another AR-15 and was leaning heavily towards the S&W Sport 2. I already own the Sport 1.
So, I did a bit of research on other brands. I went to my local range and fired a few boxes through one I rented, a Ruger AR-556. I LIKED IT!
I have (2) on order right now. My son's birthday is coming up and I need an AR shooting buddy.
I am true blue S&W, but, this Ruger AR-556 has A LOT of nice features on it! Try one, you might like it!
