THE AR PLATFORM REDEFINED. The SR-556 offers Ruger's legendary rugged reliability, and comes factory standard with a host of accessories that today's shooters demand.
Employing a patent-pending, chrome-plated, two-stage piston driven operating system that provides the user with a cleaner, cooler running, reliable firearm that is truly state-of-the-art.
The chrome-lined gas block and chrome-plated piston and regulator work together to provide a smooth power delivery stroke to the bolt carrier. The by-products of the gas system are vented out the bottom of the gas block, away from the bolt carrier, keeping the action clean and free from contaminants. The end result is significantly improved performance over gas driven rifles.

Why gas-piston? I've used the M4/M16 for years and dealing with the hot gas buildup with direct impingement is one of the stupidest designs Armalite and Cold afterward could have gone with. Especially when there were already decades of gas-piston examples out there that were proven and reliable.

- Asked 12/29/2018 06:54 by Joseph C
A:Joseph, You can get 30 round magazine with the other 5900 series Rugers (5901,5902, 5905, 5912, 5913 and 5915) all out of stock . All the Ruger 8500 models have 30 round magazine. Those models are DI not piston driven and do not have the trigger or other features of this firearm. Most AR owners do not have just one magazine so if you like the firearm and live in a free state get the firearm and purchase the 30 or 40 round magazines of your choice. This firearm ships with the capacity magazine it has. I have 70 magazines for my ARs. If it is legal in your state buy this great firearm and get some extra magazines.See 2 more answers | -

A:Armando, that extension above the barrel is the "two-stage piston-driven operating system" (instead of a gas impingement system) that provides the user with a cleaner, cooler-running, reliable firearm that is truly state-of-the-art. Most have an adjustable knob at the end.
