This video dives into Ruger's select-fire AC-556 rifle, a civilian-market derivative of their Mini-14. Introduced in 1979 as a select-fire option for military and police, it featured a selector for semi-auto, 3-round burst, and full-auto. The description highlights its unique burst mechanism and appearance, noting its adoption by French security services as the Mousqueton AMD. While not sold directly to civilians, guns produced between 1979 and 1986 are transferable, and many have entered the commercial market after leaving police inventories. Ruger ceased sales in 1999 and factory repair in 2009.
