Ruger Introduces Ruger Harrier Rifles

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) proudly announces the launch of Ruger® Harrier™ rifles, a completely re-engineered line of modern sporting rifles (MSRs) that represents the latest evolution in AR-pattern firearms. Manufactured at Ruger’s recently acquired Hebron, Kentucky factory, Harrier rifles are designed to deliver superior fit, function and aftermarket compatibility.
Initial Harrier rifle offerings include two rifles chambered in 5.56 NATO (.223 Remington compatible). Both models feature a rigid, free-floated 15-inch handguard with M-LOK® accessory slots, but differ in configuration to meet varying shooter preferences. Model 28600 features a mid-length gas system, Magpul® MOE-K2® grip, Magpul DT Carbine stock, and a handguard with a full-length STANAG-spec top rail. Model 28601 is equipped with a carbine-length gas system, classic black A2 grip, M4 collapsible stock, and a lighter profile handguard without a full-length top rail.
Each Harrier rifle features forged 7075 aluminum upper and lower receivers that meet mil-spec standards and are finished with Type III hard-coat anodizing for exceptional durability. The lower receiver is equipped with a GI single-stage trigger, safety selector, and trigger guard, along with an integrated tension screw that allows users to fine-tune upper-to-lower fitment. A mil-spec diameter carbine buffer tube with a staked castle nut, standard recoil spring and carbine-weight buffer complete the lower assembly.
Each flat-top upper receiver includes Picatinny rail slots, a forward assist, dust cover, brass deflector and mil-spec charging handle. Read more
