The AR-15-pattern rifle is the rifle of choice for the sport of 3-gun, and that sport demands the best from the shooter and equipment alike. From long-range shots out 300 yards and beyond to fast, quick shots at close range targets, an AR-15 used in 3-gun competitions needs to do it all, and do it on-demand.

Designed to provide 3-gun competitors with a purpose-built match rifle that they can afford, the new RRAGE 3G rifle from Rock River Arms brings together the streamlined styling and efficient performance of the Rock River Arms’ RRAGE 5.56 NATO carbine and a new, free-float handguard.

The 15-inch, lightweight-aluminum handguard extends across the length of the 16-inch chrome moly HBAR barrel and is M-Lok-compatible to provide room for custom accessories and placement. The handguard is designed to blend smoothly with RRA's proprietary extruded aluminum flattop upper to deliver an upper assembly that combines a clean, matching contours that is both visually appealing and has a smooth, monolithic-style profile for quick, snag-free sling transitions.

Weighing a comfortable 6.5 pounds, the RRAGE 3G is designed to not only perform at peak proficiency for long- and short-distance target engagement, it is also priced to be affordable for shooters just entering 3-gun competitive shooting.
