Ruger has a long history of building rugged, reliable firearms, and the Ruger Harrier brings that philosophy to a completely re-engineered line of modern sporting rifles. Designed from the ground up to deliver the fit, function and aftermarket compatibility today’s shooters expect, the Harrier represents the latest evolution of Ruger’s AR-pattern firearms.
Ruger Harrier Chambered in 5.56 NATO
Chambered in 5.56 NATO and compatible with .223 Remington, the Harrier is built around forged 7075 aluminum upper and lower receivers with a durable Type III hard-coat anodized finish. A 16.1-inch black-nitride barrel features a versatile 1:8-inch twist, 1/2″-28 muzzle threads and an A2 flash hider, delivering a durable, adaptable foundation for a wide range of shooting applications.

Both Harrier models feature a rigid, free-floated 15-inch handguard with M-LOK accessory attachment slots, providing ample room to configure the rifle around individual preferences. The flat-top upper receiver offers Picatinny rail space for optics and includes familiar AR features such as a forward assist, dust cover and brass deflector.
Built for Reliability & Longevity
Inside, Ruger engineered the Harrier with reliability and longevity in mind. The bolt, carrier and gas key feature a black-nitride finish, while the gas key is securely staked and the firing pin is chrome plated. An integrated tension screw in the lower receiver also allows shooters to fine-tune upper-to-lower receiver fit.
Two Ruger Harrier Configurations
Two configurations give shooters the choice between a full-length Picatinny rail with Magpul furniture and mid-length gas system, or a streamlined partial-rail configuration with classic M4-style furniture and a carbine-length gas system.
