I am a new member but have own Ruger products for decades. Based on the success of the SR-556 I just ordered the SR-762 and am waiting for it to arrive from the dealer! It will be a long wait...
Also ordered 500 rds of Lake City 7.62X51 ammo to get used to it.
Ruger changed the AR-15 world with the piston SR-556 and I think that will happen with the A-10 shooters as well. Everyone in Viet Nam learned how dirty a blow-back M-16 could get and that's why I love the piston ARs.
Thank you. I've already made the decision to install the same Geissele SSA trigger that is in my SR-556. Made all the difference in the world and break at just over 2 lbs. I understand the "lawsuit proof" factory trigger so it is just a necessary change. With 30 years in the military and being very familiar with the M-16, I love the piston rifles!
Welcome to the family. I know how exciting it is when you get a new gun, to some a gun is a gun..but to the rest of us, we all know each one is unique. BTW, Thank You for your service!
