Custom built the Ruger AR five five six MP R or multi-purpose rifle is Ruger's custom built it's assembled with top-quality well matched components it's still a rugged reliable Ruger it's still an outstanding value the AR five five six MP R is an exceptionally accurate rifle and it seems to do everything very well the heart of the AR five five six.

Build is its barrel cold hammer forged from chrome moly steel it's forged with minimum bore and groove dimensions and 5r rifling 5r rifling distorts bullet jackets less fouls more slowly cleans more easily this barrel is forged with a one-in-eight twist that will stabilize just about any bullet length and the 18 inch length gives a little.

Extra velocity boost over the standard 16 inch tube a highly accurate build need not have a super heavy barrel contours the AR 5 5 6 MP R has a 700 diameter in front of the gas block a 750 diameter at the gas block journal and the barrel contour is trimmed away behind the gas block this lightweight contour contributes to fast and quick.

Handle the barrel is capped with a radial port muzzle break that reduces recoil and muzzle rise further contributing to quick handling recoil is further reduced by the rifle length gas system the softer operating impulse is easier on the rifle and here on the shooter accuracy is further enabled by the.

Lowepro gas block which is free floated inside the 15 inch handguard this light trim handguard features M lock slots at the 3 6 and 9 o'clock position as well as the upper 45 positions and a full-length Picatinny rail that matches the Picatinny on the flattop upper the barrel is nitride to help it maintain its great accuracy over more rounds.

Downrange longevity is further enhanced by chrome plating on the ID of the bolt carrier and the bolt the bolt is 93 10 its shot peened and truth tested Ruger AR 5 5 6 MP are features rubriz elite 452 trigger it's a two-stage trigger the first take up stage is followed by a crisp clean four and a half pound break the Ruger MPR.

Features Magpul m OE furniture the adjustable full-length buttstock with a comfortable cheek weld the appropriately textured grip for great control and great comfort and when coupled with the trim handguard the MPR offers great ergonomics the Ruger AR 556 the multi-purpose rifle everything well here to introduce you to the 6 hour and 400.

Trent so this rifle is basically our introduction into the sub thousand dollar category so one of the key features in this rifle is going to be the barrel itself we've got a 16 inch stainless steel one an 8 twist barrel comes with our taper lock system here two of the muzzle device we'll talk.

About that in a second so stainless steel live stainless steel well you're going to get with that stainless steel more accuracy downrange with this rifle and not worry about too much corrosion going on either stainless steel is good for that we've also got the 1 and 8 twist so maybe that might ask why one and a twist.

Well again this is more apt for the introductory shooters people are just getting into this so one Nate twist people don't typically start off in this industry here spending a whole lot of money on ammo they tend to go with the lighter 55 grain rounds and what that will allow you to do is have more accuracy with those light.

Around 255 green etc the taper lock what God here is our taper lock works really well with our suppressers line what that does is allowed for a good solid lockup it takes more effort to take the can off and it does to put the suppressor back on and also good solid alignment all the way through as you can see this is going to come with a three prong flash hider.

To keep your vision in check while shooting multiple rounds in lower light you're not even blinded by the flash coming with that barrel is going to be our Sigma crow light gas block it's actually made of stainless steel believe it or not lighter than most of the titanium gas blocks out there very light very inconspicuous runs underneath the.

Most hand guards out there and it's going to be a very light option for you so one thing I look for in a rifle is going to be ambidextrous friendly components with this rifle out of the box you're going to get several of those your run-of-the-mill baseline rifles typically come with righty only components and so a lefty is.

Gonna have to learn how to figure that out with this again out of the box you've got several different lefty and righty ambidextrous components so first is going to be the safety selector switch so I've got the safety here righty and Lefty friendly also I've got the ambidextrous magazine catch so again I can access it from the left side or.

The right side very very easily also it's going to be the QD points on both sides right and left so if you're a lefty like me can run your sling point in here righty slim side right over here so very very impressive this comes with several different ambidextrous components also if you decide to upgrade to later on we also offer a ambidextrous.

Charging handle so that's gonna help out significantly as well also coming stock with this rifle is going to be the stock itself Magpul SLK stock there's really nice sleek lined six position stocks or the taller folks out there the shorter folks out there like me you're going to have a perfect position just for you when it comes to that level.

Of comfort another thing I'm a big fan of the stock 2 is gonna be a little bit of a wider cheek piece here so it's going to give you a good solid cheek well when it comes to shooting rifle not no strain on your neck that's gonna be nicely comfortable for you if you're having to sell the stock for a prolonged period of time another organ.

Ah mcli friendly piece is going to be the new sikh pistol grip so there's about a thousand different pistol grips out there made for air 15 SiC that I should have very very good job of making this new grip very very ergonomic eep inside there so probably the biggest key feature on this rifle coming out of the box this thing is going to have a.

Free-floating handguard already on the rifle what does that mean essentially most of your lower-cost rifles out there come with some sort of a handguard that in some way shape or form touch the barrel now typically it's not a great thing if anything touches the barrel in any way shape or form what that does is tends to mess with the harmonics of your.

Barrel if you rest the barrel on a barricade or a car part or anything like that what I'll do is send that around literally a matter of inches at a mere 50 yards away away from its intended target so with a free-floating hair guard what you have is nothing at all touching that barrel so you're not messing with any of harmonics whatsoever.

I can rest this thing on a barricade arrested on a bipod I can rest it on a car part or whatever it is and nothing is messing with that rifles accuracy which is pretty key it's pretty sleek very very smooth so no matter where you run your hand on this handguard it's going to be a nice smooth position for that hand too so a big fan of that so.

Whether you're a first-time buyer or an experienced m400 shooter this is a good place to go
