Ruger, America's largest civilian firearm company has jumped into the "Assault Weapon" market with a two stage gas piston AR-15. Ruger already has the Mini-14/Mini-30 line but this is a major step in the right direction.
Ruger is big in the Fudd world and this shows what the American people want. Combat style rifles. This is just as Earth shattering as Remington making AR-15s. It's another nail in the coffin of the anti-gun left that AR-15s and other rifles aren't for sport, self defense, or hunting.
Remember folks.... Bill Ruger (now Dead) said before the 1994 Assault Weapon Ban "no honest man needs more than 10 rounds in any gun…" and "I never meant for simple civilians to have my 20 and 30 round magazines…"
Well.... after he said that the gun buying public has turned their back on Bill Ruger. He's dead and his company is not just selling 20rd and 30rd magazines to civilians. They're making small compact carry pistols, 18rd capacity duty pistols, and now an AR-15.
The more companies that produce AR-15s, AK Series rifles, etc.... is another voice to fight the leftests in Congress and the White House. Looks like Ruger announced that they're throwing heir support behind the 2nd Amendment.
First it was S&W with their AR-15 rifle, then Remington, and now Ruger. I think that the Dems are going to have a harder fight this time.
The only industry partner that is somewhat still a Government lacky is Colt and they lost their last Government Contract so I believe that they're also going to have to realize that it's the civilian market that keeps them in business and not the Government.
