I'm curious as to how reliable the AR-556 is in totally stock configuration? Mine cost considerably less than my other ARs and I'd like to know from members of the forum what, if anything, typically fails? Because we all know that when something fails, it fails at the worst possible time.
How long have you owned yours? How many rounds? I've read where many of you replaced certain parts (triggers mostly), but I'd like to know specifically about parts you replaced because the stock parts failed.
For example, I have a S&W PC M&P 15 that liked to "double." S&W replaced the bolt and that fixed it. But that was a common problem with that model.
Does the Ruger have any such weaknesses?
