Ruger SFAR Features

The newest Ruger addition to their Modern Sporting Rifles is the innovative Small Frame Autoloading Rifle (SFAR). The Ruger SFAR rifle is nearly identical in size to the traditional 5.56 caliber MSR, but is chambered in 308 Win / 7.62 NATO. The bolt and barrel extensions are CNC-machined from high-strength super alloy steel that outperforms traditional C158 bolts. Tapered lug geometry further strengthens the breech to support larger short-action cartridges.

The bolt carrier assembly features a chrome-lined 8620 steel bolt carrier and nitride-processed gas key staked in place. The titanium firing pin has been DLC-coated for long service life. The bolt includes dual ejectors and an optimized extractor to ensure positive extraction and ejection of the spent case through the enlarged ejection port. Ruger's 2-port Boomer muzzle brake has large perpendicular surfaces to redirect gas and reduce felt recoil. 5/8"-24 muzzle threads on the barrel remain compatible with other brakes, flash hiders, and suppressors.

The SFAR is equipped with a Ruger Elite 452 trigger that delivers a smooth, crisp 4.5-pound 2-stage trigger pull. A full-strength hammer spring and lightweight hammer ensure fast lock times and consistent primer ignition. The Magpul MOE SL stock and MOE grip provide positive control and ergonomics. The receiver end plate includes an additional socket for a QD sling swivel pocket and fills the offset space at the rear of the receiver. The Ruger SFAR 308 comes with one, 20-round Magpul PMAG magazine and is compatible with SR25®/AR-10-pattern .308 Win/7.62 NATO magazines.
