Keyboard commandos wont fight it out on any battlefield. Might see if you can find one to test out. Whats the feedback at the NRA show running like? Divide & conquer.

I own or have owned a number of AR's, including a couple of LaRue's, a KAC, a PWS and a POF. Better sell that RRA while you still can. Low character move. How did Ruger even survive to do a turn-around? I checked my order history. So thats a reason for ignoring the fact that Ruger basically wrote the assault weapons ban? I also find their use of Springfield Armory in their advertising repulsive, implying over 240 years of history in the current company, starting in 1777. RRA IS THE ONLY COMPANY THAT CAN MAKE A RELIABLE AR-10. Did you expect anything less than shady from the Illinois legislature? Yuge. If your going to bash or boycott one then bash and boycott all.

However, again I wasnt really in the market to add anything else from their company to my safe anyway. I can promise that none, and I mean none of my not unsubstantial refund, is going to wind up in Springfields receivables account. This will damage Springfield Armorys brand nation-wide, in a business where reputation is everything. Along with lost new sales, this boneheaded move will kill resale values. If you dont like their price dont buy. The vocal retards who screamed about this conveniently ignored that last part. Its a FACT that those brands are twice the price as Ruger.

Springfield Armory is a dishonest operation from stem to stern. This is income tax refund time. Hugely disappointing. Having this blow up the day before a brand-new product launch at the NRA convention is basically the exact opposite of fortuitous timings for Springfield. Until we destroy that party America will continue to be destroyed from within. my first AR was a rock river arms rrage. I cannot in good conscience support in any way a company that would pull this kind of stunt.

The lobbyist for the Illinois Firearms Manufacturers Association (IFMA), Jay Keller,traded that groups opposition to the bill in exchange for a carve-out, removing PrairieState firearms manufacturers from the licensing requirements.

The LAR-15 X-Series X-1 Rifle in .223/5.56mm from Rock River Arms is available at a manufacturer suggested retail price of $1,450.00 and $1,500.00, depending on the stock and color option (Black and Tan).

Accurate and precise for I bought a RRA rifle back in 2012. We do not need traitors in our midst. No more. Was very interested in this new pistol too as a possible single-stack semi-auto alternative to my J-frame. That should be true.

CTD are dirtbags plain and simple. Web50%. I live in Illinois. A big reason that these rifles shoot so well is the barrel.

Two companies provide the bulk of the funding for IFMA:Springfield Armory and Rock River Arms. Looked at a custom SA 1911 before purchasing an STI. They ignored it. Last trip to the range, ran a couple hundred rounds of all flavors through it without an FTE/FTF. One dealer told me hes pulling Springfield product from his shelves to give his salespeople a break from carping customers. Even if its expensive, SA is in a better position to pay the fee than Hank and Ethels gun shop. I was just about to purchase a 1911 with the deal Springfield is running this week. I just wish there was a good M14 clone I could get. Wasnt sold on DAO until I shot it. Glad I waited. I would say that Ruger has done more to support the 2A than all other companies combined. The news of Springfield Armory and Rock River Arms selling Illinois gun dealers and gun owners down the river continues to spread among The People of The Gun.

The Illinois Manufacturers Association will continue to fight and protect not only manufacturers, but dealers and the gun owner as well.. Dont forget about the Ruger, Smith and Wesson sellout.. They keep voting for F#$%ing Democrats. As far as Im concerned, Smith and Wesson are still shit given they operate in communist MA and they should have packed up an left after what that bitch Maura Healey did last year.
