Ruger 77 Bolt 375 Ruger 20″ Hogue OverMolded Matte Stainless

Hawkeye Alaskan features a Hogue OverMolded stock, rugged V-notch sights and a 20″ hammer forged stainless steel barrel. The Alaskan also houses other standard M77 Hawkeye features including the LC6 trigger, Mauser type controlled feed extractor, positive floor plate latch, three position safety, and integral scope mount.

The M77 was retooled almost entirely and reintroduced in 1991 as the Mark II. The safety, bolt, and trigger were mildly redesigned. The claw extractor was retained, but the bolt face was opened up to allow controlled-round feeding. The plunger ejector was replaced with a Mauser style blade ejector. Finally, a three-position safety allowed the bolt to be operated while the gun was still on safe, making unloading of the rifle less hazardous. Ruger also eliminated the adjustable trigger that came stock on the original M77.

Hawkeye[edit]

In 2006, Ruger introduced new features and a new name for their rifle, the Hawkeye. Major changes were made to the trigger system and the stock was recontoured, but otherwise the rifle remained unchanged.³ The LC6 trigger addressed complaints from consumers about the Mark II trigger to make it safer than the earlier design.⁴⁵ The LC6 trigger is lighter and smoother.

.30-06 Cal SAR (Search and Rescue) rifle[edit]

The SAR Rifle, .30-06 caliber, RUGER, Model M77 is a rifle designed for use by Canada’s search and rescue technicians (SAR Techs) and aircrews. The SAR Rifle is designed to be a compact survival rifle chambered in .30-06 Springfield. The rifle is based on the standard Ruger M77 Mk II rifle but the barrel has been shortened to 14.5″. The orange coloured buttstock has been modified so that it can fold along the left hand side of the stock and it also can hold six additional rounds of ammunition. The rifle is issued with a special case that has been designed to attach to the search and rescue technicians’ parachute harnesses.
