Ruger-57

The Ruger-57 is a high-performance, semi-automatic pistol chambered in the low-recoiling 5.7x28mm caliber, offering exceptional ergonomics, reliability, and accuracy for concealed carry, range shooting, and tactical applications. Featuring a 4.94-inch alloy steel barrel with a black nitride treatment and a Dark Desert Earth glass-filled nylon frame, this pistol weighs 24.5 ounces, balancing lightweight carry with robust construction. Its full-featured design and high capacity make it a standout choice for shooters seeking versatility and precision.

Key features include Ruger’s Secure Action fire-control system, combining a protected internal hammer with a bladed-safety trigger for a short, smooth pull, clean break, and positive reset. The 1911-style ambidextrous manual safety, robust slide release, and reversible magazine release enhance usability for all shooters. The through-hardened billet steel slide with lightening cuts is drilled and tapped for optics (adapter plate sold separately), paired with a windage and elevation adjustable serrated rear sight and rapid-acquisition fiber optic front sight. Additional features include a Picatinny-style accessory rail, textured ergonomic grip, safe takedown without tools or trigger pull, and an inspection port for chamber status. The pistol ships with two 20-round steel magazines.

This pistol is ideal for concealed carry, personal defense, and recreational shooting, where its low recoil and high 20+1 capacity excel in dynamic scenarios. Recent reviews, such as those from Guns & Ammo (2024), praise its smooth trigger and accuracy, making it a top choice for shooters seeking a powerful, adaptable handgun.
