Product Overview
>>The Ruger-57 is a full-featured handgun wrapped around a standard capacity, 10-round steel magazine, chambered in the high performance and low-recoiling 5.7x28mm calibre. >>The most touted feature of this new pistol is its impressive ergonomics. The slender steel magazine is surrounded by a glass-filled nylon frame featuring an optimised texture, making for a natural and ergonomic grip. Despite the longer cartridges, the trigger reach is no longer than many common 9mm Luger handguns. All of the controls are easily accessible, like the 1911-style ambidextrous manual safety, robust slide release and the reversible magazine latch. >>The flat-shooting 5.7x28mm cartridge is recognised for its superior ballistic performance. The lighter weight projectiles have significantly less felt recoil than 9mm Luger, allowing quicker sight reacquisition. >>Rounding out the package is a windage and elevation adjustable, serrated rear sight and rapid acquisition fibre optic front sight for fast, accurate shooting; Picatinny-style accessory rail; and Secure Action fire control which combines Ruger's reliable and proven internal hammer with a short, crisp trigger pull and a positive reset. >>SPECIFICATONS <>Capacity: 10 <>Grip Frame: High-Performance, Glass-Filled Nylon <>Barrel Length: 4.94" <>Overall Length: 8.65" <>Barrel Material: Alloy Steel <>Barrel Finish: Black Nitride <>Front Sight: Fibre Optic <>Rear Sight: Adjustable <>Slide Material: Alloy Steel <>Slide Finish: Black Oxide <>Weight: 24.5oz. <>Slide Width: 1.20" <>Height: 5.60" <>Grooves: 8 <>Twist: 1:9" RH >>FEATURES <>Impressive ergonomics include an easy trigger reach, 1911-style ambidextrous manual safety, robust slide release and reversible magazine release latch. <>Through hardened, billet steel slide with lightening cuts is drilled and tapped for easy mounting of optics. <>Windage and elevation adjustable, serrated rear sight and rapid acquisition fibre optic front sight for fast, accurate shooting. <>The alloy steel barrel features a black nitride treatment for wear resistance. <>Steel magazine provides double stack capacity without unnecessary bulk. <>Textured, ergonomic frame provides a secure and comfortable grip. <>The Secure Action fire control combines Ruger's reliable and proven internal hammer with a short, crisp trigger pull and a positive reset. <>Safe, easy takedown with no tools or trigger pull required. <>Inspection port allows for visual confirmation of a loaded or empty chamber. <>Picatinny-style accessory rail for easy mounting of lights and lasers. <>Magazine drops free on release for convenient reloading. <>Also includes two steel magazines.
