When selecting a defense-grade semi-auto platform for home or range use, reliability, modularity, and sighting capability are priorities. A well-equipped rifle that balances factory-level features with proven accessories can save time and enhance performance in decisive moments.

RUGER AR-556

Key features that matter

The RUGER AR-556 ships with a 30-round magazine, an adjustable stock for rapid length-of-pull changes, and a muzzle brake to reduce felt recoil and muzzle rise during follow-up shots. It arrives equipped with a Trijicon VCOG 15-6X24 IR scope, putting a high-quality optic on the rifle out of the box for extended-range engagements and clear target identification.

Optics and accuracy

Trijicon VCOG 15-6X24 IR scope

Including a Trijicon VCOG 15-6X24 IR gives the rifle an immediate accuracy advantage. The 15-6X magnification range is well suited for precision shots beyond typical iron-sight distances while the illuminated reticle aids target acquisition in varied lighting. For users planning duty, personal defense, or precision practice, factory mounting of this optic reduces setup time and ensures correct eye relief and alignment.

Ergonomics and control

The adjustable stock improves adaptability for multiple shooters and for quick transitions between standing and supported positions. The muzzle brake helps contain muzzle rise and speed follow-up shots — an important factor when training for controlled, accurate rapid fire. Although the listing does not specify caliber, many AR-15-style platforms are commonly chambered in 5.56 NATO/.223 Rem; confirm the exact chambering on the product page before purchase.

Certified Used value and pricing

This listing is offered as a Certified Used firearm — inspected to meet very good to excellent condition standards and backed by a ‘no questions asked’ return policy. At a price of $1,709.99, the RUGER AR-556 presents a strong value when factoring the factory-installed Trijicon optic and included accessories. The brand Ruger and the AR-556 platform are well-established for reliability, and the model variants available give buyers options to match mission needs.
