Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) is excited to introduce the Ruger LC Charger chambered in 5.7x28mm. This large-format pistol features a 10.3″ threaded barrel, ambidextrous manual safety, and a reversible magazine release. Based on the Ruger LC Carbine and utilizing the same magazines and controls as the innovative Ruger-5.7 pistol, the LC Charger combines the best of both platforms.
Ruger LC Charger in 5.7mm
The LC Charger is chambered in 5.7x28mm, a low-recoiling cartridge available in an exciting array of options for target shooting, small game, and personal defense. The pistol features an M-LOK aluminum free-float handguard with an adjustable hand stop, multiple QD attachment points for slings, and a full-length Picatinny rail for optics.
Like the Ruger-5.7 pistol, the LC Charger utilizes Ruger’s safe, reliable, and proven Secure Action fire-control mechanism that combines a protected internal hammer with a bladed-safety trigger that has a short, smooth pull, clean break, and positive reset. The nitride-coated alloy steel barrel is threaded 1/2″-28 for the attachment of standard muzzle accessories.
Made in the USA of strong and lightweight materials, the Ruger LC Charger is ideal for the range, home defense, backpacking, or small game.

Pocket pistol?
If they are building a ‘pistol’ that long they might as well make one that takes the P90 magazines!
The little carbine looks handy, but to me, this is “ho-hum.” Different strokes, I guess.

5.7 needs a 10″ or longer barrel, or you might as well shoot .22mag and save some serious money on ammo prices. Just don’t put a brace or shoulder stock on it until the present political situation is resolved.
