NEAT picture, poor ED he's going to need a little assistance with the trigger

is that that new scout rifle from ruger? how do you like it?

I absolutely love it. The open sights are very practical and durable. I kept mine on as a backup and I put a Vortex SPARC red-dot on the rail. (The 2x magnifier is near useless, just FYI)

I also have a Thompson Machine THIRTY suppressor. Getting the factory flash hider lose is best done with an impact wrench and a T60 Torx bit. It feel so wrong taking an impact wrench to a rifle, but it really is the best way to get the factory flash hider lose so you can use the threaded muzzle for something else. I still use the factory hider as a thread protector.

The magazines are Alpha Industries Type II magazines. A bit spendy, but very easy to load, compact, and durable.

The best part for me about a bolt gun is that I reload and I can simply neck size my brass, which makes the brass last longer and speeds up reloading the cartridge. I sold my Saiga .308 to buy the Ruger and I have no regrets about it.

Accurate rapid fire with it is quite easy with some practice.

I doubt that rifle need the hearing pro.
