Who carries these magazines?
The XS full length top rail is available direct from Brownells. With the discount they are like $60 bucks or something.
I got the exta steel mag from shooter choice during a gun show.
I have ordered one from the USA but waiting on it to be shipped - not sure why it's taking so long.

Can anyone tell me a spot to pick up the ncstar 2-7x32 scope ?
Was that an Alpha mag? if so, who did you order it from?
I purchased a scout rifle last week and ,today in the rain I went to the range .First of all I dont like the magazine I bought the 5 round mag as well and paint was all over the brass from the magazine i presume ,and loading it is just poor actually just my opinion .The gun did shoot great .7 @ 92 yards and it shot consistently with 3 ammo types I settled on the 180 tbbc as my hunting load and they get along with my rifling ,apart from the magazine I love this gun little recoil and shoots house afire
Keep going, it will hold 12 easily & at 13 - its VERY tight but works. occasionally the magazine spring pressure will push the tangs apart a bit and try to pop the 13th out, but it works. that makes the rugger load 13+1 chambered.
Love this rifle !
Love this rifle !
I sure would be interested in scout scopes , but I have some reservations of putting one on my ruger scout .I plan on using the scout as a hunting tool , I understand about having more vision and picking up things around me ,but it has some drawbacks .One of them is being forward mounting it must catch more rain where it is less protected and unless you are using a rain guard you wont see much unless you continually clean.
I rarely hunt in the rain , but I have been caught in showers and after the rain the trees remain wet for hours ,just a thought that snow can accumulate just after one small pass through the limbs
My question is ,Have you guys experienced these issues? Minor, i understand but I lost a good buck after breaking through the spruce and unable to clear my traditional scope in time ,your thoughts please ,I dont want it to sound like ya just clear your scope because in real life you may need to shoot very quickly ,maybe not to shoot a deer ,but to save your life .
Also scope covers are not an option where I hunt ,this is not on the corner of a corn field ,I am comfortable to do less than more when the chips are down and flipping scope covers is not a step I want to deal with
Awaiting your response
