The Grayboe Universal Mini Chassis for the Ruger American short action (brand part no. ALRUGSA) lets a Ruger American ride in a Grayboe stock with its own bedded action. The rifle bolts to the chassis, and the pair bolts into the stock, so one stock can serve several rifles. It is cut for the short action, so it pairs with the shorter magazine length. The chassis feeds from AICS magazines and needs no bottom metal.

Key Specifications

• Fit is the Ruger American short action, which this chassis is cut to bed.
• The chassis fits into the Flagstaff, Halo, Core and Renegade 2 stocks, so one stock can be shared among rifles.
• Material is T6 6061 billet aluminum, a rigid and lightweight bed for the action.
• The coating is Cerakote black or Type III hard coat anodize, which resists wear and corrosion.
• Weight is 14 ounces, light enough to leave the rifle balanced.
• Magazines are AICS short-action units, and the mags click into the chassis without any bottom metal.
• Two screws included with the chassis lock it into the stock, so swapping rifles takes minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the chassis feed from the factory Ruger magazines? No. It takes AICS magazines only, and Grayboe says the magazine must rest on the magazine lever to feed properly with no upward pressure when shooting.

Will it fit an early Ruger American? Grayboe notes that Ruger American Gen 1 and Glenfield models may need minor fitting, since action tolerances can make the safety arm rub or bind against the chassis.

Which stocks will it fit? Grayboe Flagstaff, Halo, Core and Renegade 2 stocks.
