Eichler Designs New Predator AR for Rock River

Rock River Arms, Inc., an industry leader well-known for producing a full line of high-quality AR15-style rifles, components, parts, and accessories introduces the Fred Eichler Series Predator .223 rifle, representing further growth in RRA’s expanding line of high performance hunting firearms.

Fred Eichler comments, "I am extremely excited to get this new predator gun out in the field.  Rock River Arms is known for their high-quality rifles and I’m honored to have been selected to have my own series. 

After extensive in-the-field development, I am proud to attach my name to such an excellent product.  I look forward to spending more time in the field with my Rock River Arms predator rifle."



The Fred Eichler Series rifle was strategically designed to be lightweight for running and gunning.  The 16" mid-length stainless steel barrel has been cryogenically treated to increase the shooters accuracy and aids in cleaning the firearm.  The RRA free-float handguard has a full length Picatinny top rail and 2.5" rails at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock for lights, lasers and bi-pods.  The unique CNC coyote track design adds not only flare but functionality as it helps dissipate heat. The forged A4 upper flattop allows attachments for scopes, night vision and red dot sights.  The rifle equipped with a chromed RRA National Match two-stage trigger with a Parkarized non-reflective surface on the trigger shoe.  Other great features include winter trigger guard which accommodates winter or tactical gloves and an over molded pistol grip.  It also has a low-profile hidden gas block and RRA’s custom muzzle break with directional porting which reduces muzzle lift and recoil.  The Fred Eichler Series rifle is available in either the RRA Operator Stock or RRA 6-position Operator CAR Stock.  The Fred Eichler Predator .223 is available in a two-tone black-tan finish.

Each Fred Eichler Predator .223’s comes with one-twenty round (10 round where restricted by law) magazine, hard case and owners manual.

Cover your ATV Investment

Got an ATV?  Bet it was expensive, so you definitely want to protect it. The best way to keep it looking and running as good as possible is to protect it from the elements when it is not in use. What elements? How about UV for one. UV is the most damaging element it faces. Others are moisture, dirt, grime, and heat.



They all take their toll in time. A really good cover will go a long way in protecting your toy.

The ATV covers from CoverAlls are UV, water, dirt and heat proof. That’s right-we said PROOF-not resistant.

Nothing gets under a CoverAlls cover-period! It’s also easy and quick on and off, and it won’t cost you an arm and a leg. UTV and side-by-side covers are coming soon, too.

The FletchPod quickly snaps onto arrows to eliminate fletch damage. The unique design protects fletches in the field, when traveling, when storing arrows, and FletchPod nestles perfectly into arrow boxes and quivers.

The universal design can accommodate arrow shafts and fletching sizes from .25-inch to .35-inch diameter shafts, .55-inch max fletch height and 4.2-inch max fletch length. FletchPod retails for $9.99 per 6-pack and color choices include: clear, blue, camo, green, purple, red and pink.

Fingers will never have to come in contact with blades again.

Broadhead Pods are designed for fixed 3-blade broadheads with a max cutting diameter of 1.35" and fit arrow shaft diameters from .25-inch to .35-inch.  MSRP is $9.99 per 6-pack or $4.99 per 3-pack.
