At least now we know why we had a hard time buyin' Magpul pmags.  Ruger bought them all for there "new release"! ;D

Most of the components aren't even Ruger products, Troy, Hogue, Mag pul, at least it's a piston system.
Now if they offered it in .308......

Maybe they should say assembled at Ruger instead of manufactured.

I got my XCR for $1400.00 a few years ago. The Robinson appears a better weapon but time will tell.

I hope Ruger has good luck with it.

Bushmaster's gas piston AR's are made by POF.  The gas piston system that is.

That is a chunk of change. Would rather get the Springfield M1A. I absolutely agree on a Mini 14 that accepts AR mags. Cannot believe that has not been done yet??? As for AR's, I will stick with DPMS, Bushmaster or Rock River Arms.

Maybe they all fell asleep when this turned out to be the "big" announcement.

They're probably all busy getting to and settled at the NRA Show. Today is opening day.   ;)

Great another AR platform gun that you can't buy for 6 to 12 months, even if you could afford it.

I wish these guys would announce a temporary increase in current production to meet the exhisting demand of everything.

I saw guns at shot show that still are not on the shelves yet.
