Ruger AR-556 MPR 5.56 NATO 18" 30rd Turquoise Rifle

The AR-556 MPR is Ruger's Multi Purpose Rifle. This TALO edition is finished in Turquoise Cerakote, a bright color you will not mistake for anyone else's rifle at the range. It is chambered in 5.56 NATO and also handles 223 Remington, with an 18" barrel and a 1:8 twist that suits the common bullet weights.

The extra barrel length pairs with a rifle length gas system, which gives a softer, smoother recoil impulse than a carbine gas system. A 15" free float aluminum handguard with M-LOK slots keeps pressure off the barrel and gives plenty of room for a light, sling mounts or a bipod. Furniture is Magpul, with a MOE SL collapsible stock and a MOE grip. There are no sights, so plan on an optic. It weighs 6.8 lbs, comes with one 30 round magazine, and works as well for varmints and target work as it does as a general purpose AR-15.
