The Ruger AR-556 gives shooters a genuinely mil-spec AR-15 built to forged 7075 dimensions, rather than a cost-cut clone, now equipped with premium Magpul furniture. Built for reliable range and home-defense use, this AR-15 rifle delivers standard mil-spec components throughout so parts and accessories from other AR-15s fit without surprises.
Features:
- 16.1" government-profile barrel, nitride finish, 1:8 twist
- Mid-length gas system
- Forged 7075 upper and lower, Type III hardcoat anodized
- Lower receiver tension screw eliminates upper/lower play
- Forward assist, dust cover, and brass deflector
- Free float handguard, full-length Picatinny top rail, M-LOK slots
- Threaded 1/2x28 muzzle with removable A2 flash hider
- Magpul DT Carbine collapsible stock
- Magpul MOE-K2 grip
- Single-stage GI trigger, nitrided bolt and staked gas key
- 6.8 lb weight, 35.87" overall length
- Includes one 30-round Magpul PMAG
The free float handguard keeps a slim profile for a comfortable grip while still providing a full-length Picatinny top rail along with QD sling sockets on both sides. M-LOK slots run down the 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions, with eight additional slots near the muzzle end for further customization. The lower receiver's tension screw takes up any play between the upper and lower for a tighter, more consistent fit than many mil-spec builds achieve out of the box, and the Magpul DT Carbine stock and MOE-K2 grip upgrade the ergonomics over standard mil-spec furniture.
Ruger has manufactured firearms in the USA since 1949, and the AR-556 reflects the company's approach of building a genuinely mil-spec rifle at an accessible price rather than substituting non-standard parts to cut costs.
