I figured with all the hype on black guns I figured I better get a couple.
I like the one serial number XXX-05050 and the other two are consecuative 8) XXX-43000 and XXX-43001.

I am not much of a 10/22 collector but these managed to find their way to the RPM stables :eek: Both are used guns from the factory and one being a "D" duplicate serial number and the other has a US prefix.

So do all of the SR556E model have a 591- prefix? Just wondering because the other SR556's are 590-. I assume Ruger gave the "E" model a 591- because of its different internal parts (non-plated piston I think it is and some other differences).

Chad, serials are 591-05050 and the other two are 590 prefixes. All guns are 556E's.

So Ruger has evidently begun a new prefix 591- without completely filling the 590-? I don't believe I've heard of an SR556 over 590-40000 until your 591-05050.
So if Ruger didn't complete the 590- prefix, sounds like they've made some sort of internal change?
