I guess Rugged is on the HUB mount bandwagon. This should make a few people happy. More than a couple folks here, expressed disappointment that the Surge was a great .30 cal can, but lacked the universal mounting ability. I guess they listened, because I got an email today, from Rugged, introducing their new Surge, that does have it. It would be nice, if they included a muzzle device, unlike the Alaskan. I wonder if a titanium version is on the horizon
