Will one of these work in the new predator AICS mag stock?
Or, in the MDT stock with AICS mags?
Disregard, I found Buildng a Custom Ruger American Rifle over on rifleshooter.com which shows that it will work. I also called MAGPUL, and they said their stock will work without modification to the rifle.

Living in the Deep South where a blued rifle will rust overnight has taught me that I'll never buy anything blued again.
I applaud them for trying, but I can't understand how manufacturers can consistently screw up things like that. They got rid of most of the stainless models as a cost cutting effort. What did they do in the Deep South before stainless steel rifles were available? Hm.

Guess I was lucky - I bought one at $279 - Now they're back up to $429... Ouch !

Trigger is god awful on mine. Yes I tuned it down as low as it will go.
Just started shooting it with some factory 64 grain Winny PP's. Accuracy is decent, not great.
Never seen a barrel so dirty when it came new in box. Foaming it for a second time.
My initial thoughts is I should of bought another Match Grade Machine barrel for my Encore.

I'm sure you could trip it for $280 + shipping if you hate it so much. I put MCarbo springs in all of mine. They help muchly for cheap.

I can admit when I'm wrong and I am certainly wrong about the American trigger now that I installed the MCarbo spring. Night and day difference. I'm pleasantly surprised how crisp and light it is. I must admit, I did not know these springs existed until your post. Very easy to install too. I have the bore clean as a whistle now too. 450 Bushmaster mag ordered up to replace the rotary style one that comes with the rifle I'm pretty darn happy now

I took mine apart, cleaned it thoroughly and sanded a bit of material outta the stock for a better fit, ditched the mag and picked up a bushmaster mag and the damn thing's a pearl with 75/80gr eld
