Description
Ruger AR-556 with Free-Float Handguard 5.56 NATO 30rd
The Ruger AR-556 Free-Float Handguard model delivers accuracy, reliability, and modern ergonomics in a versatile AR-platform rifle. Chambered in 5.56 NATO and compatible with .223 Remington, it comes equipped with a 30-round Magpul® PMAG® magazine and a host of performance-driven features.
The 11-inch aluminum free-float handguard provides stability and improved accuracy while offering M-LOK® slots at the 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions, plus additional angled slots for accessory mounting. A flat-top upper receiver with a Picatinny rail ensures compatibility with optics, magnified scopes, or backup iron sights.
Constructed from 7075-T6 hard-coat anodized aluminum forgings, the AR-556 features a 9310 steel bolt and 8620 steel carrier, with chrome-plated interiors for durability. The 16.1-inch cold hammer-forged heavy-contour barrel with a 1:8 twist rate delivers precision with a wide range of bullet weights, while the Ruger® flash suppressor keeps recoil and muzzle signature under control.
Additional highlights include a single-stage trigger, six-position M4-style stock, ergonomic pistol grip, and extended trigger guard for gloved use. Ruger’s legendary engineering ensures this AR is equally capable on the range, in competition, or as a dependable defensive rifle.
