C-71 - Important Info Thread

In some applications, absolutely it's better, but for a 10/22 action it likely makes zero difference. Thousands of rounds of testing will tell. It's double the cost and doesn't anodize as well, so if mechanically it's not required then we will not use it.

i agree, as a MFG i can tell you 6061 is more then enough for a 10/22 as long as you got with Hard anodizing.
using 7075 its just spending $60 more at cost for no reason.
As long as you have the manufactures lic and the insurance to cover it the cost in case someone gets injured, its should be a big win!!
id be up for a few of these, as i find the quality of the rugers now days quite low.

Yes, you sir, are awesome! 7075 is not automatically a better material, plus I've heard it doesn't machine as well since the extra hardness can increase tool deflection.

It’s a .22.

7075 alloy much better

We are a licensed manufacturer and we will absolutely have these available for dealer sales. Initially as just receiver sets, and eventually as complete semi-custom guns.

If you need a local guy to help with testing, I'm more than happy to help . I know how stressful it will be for you to shoot the thousands of rounds necessary.

I wants ones.

Should change the name to C-71 MK1 ....

[danzMtl]

picking up C-71 as a name was a smart marketing decision, with a bit of SEO on ur website side and every C-71 google search will end up on your website

Ruger mags by default. However due to some changes to our action compared to others we have the ability to change what magazines it accepts by changing a part. More info to come soon.

Interested in hearing the details about this part.
