I wouldn't be at all surprised by an R15. I'd just be surprised the receiver wasn't cast by Ruger.
Ruger seems to be regretting the whole "10 rounds" thing. The SR9 (17+1 capacity pistol) seems to be part of a trend away from "politically correct"...at least that's what they are saying publicly. One of their spokesmen recently said something to the effect that the reason they aren't making/selling bigger mini-14 mags "yet" is that the tools that could make them are all running at capacity making parts for other guns and they've been dedicating their resources to newer guns like the SR9. Dunno how true that is but at some point you've got to get over old insults and move on.
