Interesting, but you could build a nice rifle for that price.
Requires left hand magazines, not compatible with standard 10/22 mags? WTF? Given that many of us have several magazines, that alone would likely be the deal killer for me. Then too, a variety of aftermarket components that would not work in the left side model.
Main market would seem to be lefties who want an accurate 10/22 out-of-the-box, not caring much about tinkering and modifying.
All that said, kudos to Ruger for once again going off the beaten path with an innovative new product, especially one for us lefties.
That magazine issue and lack of aftermarket parts, may be a damn thorn in their side. I'll just keep using my right handed 10-22. Never had an issue using a right handed one anyway.
