The barrel is also not fluted. Looking more and more like a pimped E model. Not a happy camper.

You can call Ruger. They can tell you what you have using the serial number.

There seems to have been a short transition period where some rifles had a blued bolt and chromed carrier but newer production 556E's are shipping with a chromed bolt carrier and chromed bolt. I guess Ruger decided it was easier to inventory one bolt carrier for all models instead of maintaining a parts supply just for the "E." |

I have a SR556E that I bought from ImpactGuns that came to me with a chromed carrier and a blued bolt, the barrel is non-chrome lined either. Honestly though if you got a good deal then there's nothing to worry about. My rifles great. |

That's the thing, I gave up in trade what a Non-E version would go for. The guy had a reciept showing what he paid (full retail) right after the panic started. I should have known that it was an E model just from that aspect alone. But, I wanted the 762's little brother enough to forge ahead without full knowledge.
I still love it, it shoots GREAT! Who needs a chrome lined barrel anyway (although I would have still liked it to come with one, lol)? |
