Ruger Introduces Left‑Handed Models of the Ruger American Rifle Generation II

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) is pleased to announce something left‑handed shooters have been asking for – left‑handed models of the Ruger American® Rifle Generation II. The first of these models will be released in the Ranch configuration, with six chamberings available: 7.62x39mm, 450 Bushmaster, 400 Legend, 350 Legend, 300 Blackout and 5.56 NATO.

Compact and purpose‑built, American Rifle Gen II Ranch models feature a 16.1″ cold hammer‑forged, threaded barrel paired with a factory‑installed radial port muzzle brake. This combination provides precise rifling, excellent durability and consistent accuracy in a maneuverable package. Each rifle also features a Cobalt Cerakote finish and a Flat Dark Earth stock accented with a black splatter texture.

The American Rifle Gen II platform enhances the proven reliability and accuracy of the original Ruger American Rifle, incorporating improved ergonomics, a three-position safety and a more rigid stock designed to work seamlessly with the included length-of-pull spacer and removable cheek riser. By introducing left-handed models in the versatile Ranch configuration first, Ruger is delivering a compact, real-world-ready option to the left-handed shooters who have long been asking for it.
