Damn Ruger, why you tryna empty my pockets?  This retails for $2049 and that’s not even including the $450 .300 BLK barrel.   Seems steep compared to the 10/22 takedown which is only $409 for the cheapest model.  I’m not comparing a AR-15 to a .22, but I’m just saying the multiplier is a lot higher on the takedown AR-15, compared to what you could get a regular AR-15 for vs a regular 10/22 to the takedown 10/22.

This takedown shit is amazing though, I’ll give them that. The one funny thing, if you’re not buying the .300 BLK barrel then basically all you’re doing is getting a rifle you can take down really easy for transport and save a measly few inches of space (in length)… because all you’re saving is the length of barrel that’s sticking out past the handguard if you think about it. What would be really cool is if they made an SBR barrel, and equipped this thing with one of those foldable AR-15 stocks with the corresponding internals… you could probably take down / fold over all the pieces and it would be no longer than the length of the AR-15 receiver itself.   Who’s picking one of these up?
