It's a nice looking carbine but I have no use for 5.7. I'd like to see it in 10mm.

If you want such for lefties try the FN PS-90 but it is more expensive. The round is about like a modern version of a 22 Hornet. There are also AR uppers you can get for it.
lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true
Mainstream news might be fun to watch

Twice the price of an AR every time you pull the trigger.

Nope...I have my FN, 50 & 100 round capacity too!
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

What is the "state compliant" model? Which state restricts it? Fixed stock, 10 round mags, muzzle not threaded. You can google what states the standard model is not allowed.

I saw that earlier today and for the life of me cant figure out why Ruger puts so much R&D into these type rifles and refuses to give us a 10mm or .45acp in a similar platform. They keep missing the mark on these...I may pick one up eventually anyway idk yet

I don’t particularly care for surveys, but this is one I would have been happy to participate in. 10mm gets my vote.

Seems like they could focus R&D elsewhere.

5.7X28 kills it for me. Great idea 10 years ago...maybe.

Yeah I could see it is as a nice small game rifle for where you might encounter hogs/javelina but the price is a little steep for a rabbit gun. Maybe they'll make a cheaper version closer to the PC Carbine just in 5.7x28.

Why is it no good for lefties? Side charging on the left No different than AKs are for righties. You just turn the rifle slightly inside and go over the top with your non-dominate hand and charge the handle. Quick and easy.

Have to agree. 10mm would have made more sense.
