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?

Possibly once they are in full production 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 ?

But on the price issue, he doesnt try to make a big profit per rifle, usually averages about 50-75 each. Most of the items are machined in house, that saves cost. I'm sure it'll have the standard items, and can be customized from there.
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
