The MPR is a perfect union between the standard AR-556 and a competition rifle. Muzzle break was a nice touch to complete this model. As always Bud's hit the nail on the head with the order and the pick up. Thanks!

Excellent factory AR at this price point. Trigger is a big upgrade from most stock AR triggers. Not a Timney, but much better. Fit and finish are ok. Some slop in the receiver, but can be easily resolved. Good furniture on the rifle right out of the box.

Ruger has been absolutely killing it over the last few years. I have the Ruger Precision and now this (this isn’t first AR) and LOVE this thing. My dad has a $1,300 AR that doesn’t even shoot as good as this. It’s light recoiling thanks to the full-length

Jimmy, it is not. The stock is pinned, it has a (removable) kydex fin around the grip. California restricts the muzzle brake (1 restriction) while NJ restricts both the threaded barrel and muzzle brake (2 restrictions) : budsgunshop.com/catalog/feeds/stat

Suppressor

yes the barrel is threaded and will be fine with a suppressor (1/2x28TPI threads)

Unknown 6 years ago

Jared, the devil is in the details. It can't have a muzzle brake or flash hider or a barrel shroud in NY. Even with the pinned stock, kydex around the grip, and a 10-round magazine. CA allows for a muzzle brake and not flash hider, NY allows neither.
