Ruger is proud to introduce the Ruger American Rifle Generation II; an update to the American-made rifle that has been the benchmark for accuracy; durability; and performance in bolt-action rifles for over a decade. Upgraded features include a durable; attractive Cerakote finish on the barreled action; a threaded bolt handle; stainless steel bolt body; and intuitive three-position tang safety that locks the bolt; which prevents inadvertent bolt opening yet allows the rifle to be loaded with the safety engaged. The rigid stock features a removable comb riser to improve sight alignment when using optics; as well as a length of pull (LOP) spacer; which can be removed or replaced to accommodate a variety of statures. Designed with customer feedback in mind; the Ruger American Rifle Generation II is sure to become the first choice for hunters and firearms enthusiasts. The standard generation II models feature a durable; Gun Metal Gray Cerakote barreled action and a dark gray stock that is textured with black and gray splatter for excellent grip and control in the field. The 20″; medium-contour; cold hammer-forged barrel features deep spiral fluting on most models; improving the balance of the rifle without sacrificing rigidity or accuracy. The threaded muzzle features a factory installed radial muzzle brake.
