Ruger AR556 SKU 8515 MOE-Style 5.56 NATO 16.1” 30+1 New in Box
Description: The Ruger AR556 is one of the more recent entries to the AR market compared to older models like the DPMS Oracle or the Colt SP-1. The version identified by the SKU number of 8515 features the Magpul MOE M-LOK handguard, made from heat-resistant glass-filled nylon. It is designed around the concept of low-weight and compactness to minimize bulk. Other Magpul furniture includes the MOE pistol grip, and a 6-position, telescoping, MOE buttstock. Like most AR15’s, the AR556’s receivers are made from forged 7075 T6 aluminum. The rifle has a 16.1-inch barrel with a heavy contour for rigidity. It is made of cold hammer-forged alloy steel, has M4 feed ramps, and uses a 1:8 rifling twist to stabilize the wide range of bullet weights available for the .223/5.56 round, ranging from the light 35 gr to the heavy 77 gr types. The barrel sports a matte black oxide finish for high resistance against the elements. The 8515 uses a carbine-length gas system for improved balance and handling. There are multiple attachment points including a QD socket and bayonet lug, allowing for many sling and accessory mounting options. The rifle comes with the Ruger Rapid Deploy rear flip-up sight and pairs with the A2-style, F-height front sight, providing a solid, reliable aiming system. The rear sight is adjustable for windage while the front sight is adjustable for elevation. The bolt is machined from very hard 9310 steel, while the bolt carrier group is made from 8620 steel. Controls are a standard one-side safety and G.I. charging handle. This example of the AR-556 uses a single-stage trigger for both reliability and durability in the long term. The trigger guard is bowed out for ease of use with gloved hands during wintertime. Despite all this, the AR556 8515 model weighs in at a respectable 6.5 lbs. – a little lower than the usual weight for a M4 style AR15. This new-in-box rifle comes with one 30-round Magpul magazine.
