Wonder if Ruger modified the catch later on? Wonder if some file work would make those you saw operate an A.I. Mag?

It's possible, I never looked close to see where the issue was. I just knew the mags worked in my gun and not there's. They can file their rifles all they want just not my mags.

He also has several models of AR's
556/223
6.8
300BO
6.5 gren
308
and many other variants, plus custom bolt guns and pistols

I'm supposed to get a pretty good supply (atleast one of each caliber/style) once my FFL is complete

As distributor, will you be wholesaling the guns to shops, or selling to the general public?

I would think his comment that he should be getting "one of each caliber/style" answers that question haha

I heard the same from one of Rugers Sales rep too.
It looks like the rifle manufacturers don't want their sub par righty shooting friends to be outdone by the better left handed shooters ?

making 50-75 doesn't sound like much to me. He would have to be making a metric crap ton to make a profit. Tooling and r&d alone will take a long time to recover

that's what he'll have to settle being a new manufacturer

he'll make good profit on volume

gun dealers don't make a lot of money;
selling ammo = they make more

I agree. If the product is delivered and lives up to the OPs hype he'll sell a bunch of guns for his buddy
