What's this "Aero Survival Rifle" ?
What's this "Aero Survival Rifle" ?
How heavy are they going to make the Ruger #1 50 BMG??? Never shot the 50 BMG but would like it to weight more than 10#s.Since Ruger did a great job improving the KelTec P3at, I wouldn't mind seeing Ruger's take on these:
- Mp5 pistol or carbine
-KelTec Sub2000
-Winchester Trapper Carbine
-Armalite/Charter Arms/Henry AR7 .22 Survival Rifle
- H. Koon Co Snake Charmer .410 (as an "other firearm", not shotgun)
- Mark IV .22 pistol w/ integral silencer that doesn't look as butt ugly as the Silent SR ISB
- MagPul Folding Pistol
- polymer Ruger #1 in .50bmg
As BlueheelerF1 observed the "new product" according to the rules of the Giveaway will have a retail price of $489
Magpul figured it out.Not surprising as it was a wartime expedient kludge.
Receiver on the Carbine was designed in an era where the labor hours were far cheaper than the metal milled. Which makes the thing a complicated proposition in modern times. Unless you start monkeying with the internals. And we know where that got Plainfield and Universal (both of whom were economizing by using war surplus parts, not new made).
Answer the question with inexpensive materials and expensive labor hours and you get the Ruger PC.
Or, the Marlin Camp for a different way to skin the cat.
That's what muzzle breaks are for.How heavy are they going to make the Ruger #1 50 BMG??? Never shot the 50 BMG but would like it to weight more than 10#s.
Love those #1s
So, did anyone get drawn? I’m still waiting for them to call me. LOL

I wrote them a while back about a 5.7x28 bolt action rifle. I am pretty sure they would be able to sell five or six.
That said, I really doubt that it will be a 5.7x28 bolt action rifle.
Although, in a nice light carbine sized bolt action like a CZ it would be a sweet and handy farm rifle for squirrels and such.

Or ZamakYep, pretty much rules out much of anything not made of plastic or Zamak.
That's what I can't get some folk to understand about the micro 9's... .380 is bad enough... let alone 9x19If Ruger's going to do anything with 5.7 outside the 57 pistol, it'll be a carbine.
I'll hold out a faint hope that Ruger will realize there's a market for .32 semi autos in a world dominated by .380 micro pistols that feel like a mule just stomped on you hand after you shoot them.
That's going to be a big cylinderRuger will make a Revolver in .380 with a 12 shot cylinders!
That, and so many little .380s are fixed barrel blowbacks, seeming to negate the advantage of the lighter recoil.That's what I can't get some folk to understand about the micro 9's... .380 is bad enough... let alone 9x19
I laid eyes and hands to a PPK for the first time today. It was *sweet*. Immaculate fit/finish, and an $800 price tag.That, and so many little .380s are fixed barrel blowbacks, seeming to negate the advantage of the lighter recoil.
Reread what you wrote.....I'll hold out a faint hope that Ruger will realize there's a market for .32 semi autos in a world dominated by .380 micro pistols that feel like a mule just stomped on you hand after you shoot them.
