Only visible numbers are SN marked on left side of receiver below 24577-40 and typical manufacturer markings, this Ruger AC-556F is in one of its most popular configurations with factory original folding stock and shorter version bbl with flash hider. Includes one 20 and three 30 rnd Ruger mags. Recently enjoying an upswing in popularity, likely due to the high quality workmanship, availability of ammo, and 3-position selector (SEMI, FULL AUTO, and BURST). This model of the Ruger machine gun rather surprisingly has an extremely strong following with the police of France, which Ruger to this day supplies with specially contracted versions. This specimen when its stock is folded is extremely compact and portable. This is a National Firearms Act item and requires BATF approval for transfer. This item is fully transferable on an ATF form 3 or 4. CONDITION: Overall appearance and finish is very fine with the only loss of finish being at the contact points where the bolt rides in the receiver and at the high edges near the rear sight, there is a slight 1/2" long area of plum color on the bolt where the bluing reacted to the hardening. Wood is extremely fine with a couple of light handling marks to left side above trigger with composite hand guard and hand grip exceedingly fine. The three 30 rnd mags appear as new in their orig Ruger boxes, with the 20 rnd mag exhibiting the remains of some adhesive to the floor plate. Mechanics are crisp. Bore is very fine, bright shiny in the lands, and clean grooves. The Ruger AC-556F which fires from a closed bolt, has a fine potential for accuracy, and combined with its light weight, availability of mags & ammo, and quality workmanship makes for an extremely popular machine gun. 52626-14 JWK122 (11,000-15,000)
