New RRA 2011 PDS Pistol is finally here I at last purchased my Rock River Arms PDS Piston Driven System pistol provided by my local transfer dealer. I have been saving my weapon hard earned cash for about a year given it was unveiled in early 2010. I have not had a chance to shoot the PDS yet, but I've already been collecting a few extras for the PDS pistol while I was saving my cash. Here are the features when delivered from my web based
dealer from RRA
Caliber: Rem .223/ 5.56 NATO for 5.56mm & .223 cal., Upper Receiver: Proprietary, with Extended Top Rail, Charging Handle: Proprietary Ambidextrous Non-Reciprocating, Barrel: 8" Chrome Moly, 1:9 twist, Muzzle Device: A2 Flashhider/ 1/2-28 Threads Per Inch, Trigger: Rock River Arms NM 2 Stage, Grip: Hogue Rubber Pistol Grip, Handguard: Injection molded, Ribbed, Magazine: 30 Round, Weight: five pounds, Overall Length: 17.5 inches
The Rock River Arms PDS Pistol carries a retail price of 1,385.00. I ended up buying it over the internet for much less. Most dealers within my area wanted retail plus which did not set well with my spending plan. After I get to the shooting range I will have some follow up information on accuracy and what ammo I will be using. I forgot to mention, the accessories I purchased was a Veridian green dot to mount on the rail just forward of the handguard and a Eotech 552. I don't know which style of optic I will go with yet. Whichever way I go, green laser or red dot, it won't be wasted because I have a handful of RRA Rifles within the safe that I'd love to try either on. I'm off and away to the firing range….
