We are excited to introduce to you our new RUC MOD 3 (https://www.rainierarms.com/rainier-arms-ruc-mod-3-14-5-black). When we first introduced our RUC MOD 1 and MOD 2, our focus was to develop a rifle that integrated a lightweight design while using the highest quality components. Building on the solid foundation of our predecessors, our new RUC MOD 3 is a light weight, high quality and high performace rifle that is heavy on value. It features our new Rainier Arms 14" Night Rail, XTC 2.0 compensator and RA Selector Switch. We have also included MBUS Pro for the RUC Mod 3!

I'm going to look at one this week. If I end up buying it I'll post updates

After comparing this rifle to the DDM4 V11 SLW I bought the RUC Mod 3 today. They seem so equal in build quality and for about the same price the RUC comes with back up sights installed. Optics will be added later. I have a friend who owns a RUC Mod 2 and carries it in his patrol car instead of his departments standard issue rifle. Its one of the best shooting M4's I've shot so I'm sure this new model will be on par. I'll post more later with accuracy and reliability reports.

The RUC is a good all around carbine, and when you add up the features, it's actually a pretty good value. I remember when John was first using the G2S for the triggers, and I asked him to sell me a few on the side because back then you couldn't buy them directly from Geissele. [:D]

I've only shot the original Mod 0 extensively. I've always meant to buy my own RUC at some point, but I already have a ton of carbines that have similar features and purpose. The Mod 0 on paper is my favorite though. Diamondhead sights, G2S trigger, (yeah the EVO Rail and XTC Comp are dated) but it was an excellent value.

Let us know how you like it long term!

Bit of an understatement much? [BD] lol

I wouldn't hesitate to purchase anything with Rainier on it. Great company. Nice looking rifle. Like mentioned, keep us posted on your experience with it.

My Primary Weapon is a Custom RUC MOD 2.. its Bad Ass.. Gonna upgrade the force rail to a new Fortis Swtch Mod 2 soon...

Fortis aught to sq cut the end of that NightRail the rest looks ok.. i prefer the new Switch Mod 2..
Gonna get a 15.3" Switch Mod 2 to update my RUC Mod 2 to fill the gap between the end of my rail and Ferfrans..
