Introducing the Ruger LC Charger: The LC Carbine’s Shorter Pistol Cousin

Meet the Ruger LC Charger, the latest addition to Ruger’s impressive large-format pistol lineup, expanding upon the success of the renowned and recently released LC Carbine. Crafted with the same precision, this new firearm is chambered in the versatile 5.7x28mm caliber, combining the finest attributes of its predecessor, the Ruger LC Carbine, with the cutting-edge design elements inherited from the Ruger-5.7 pistol. The LC Charger has a newly introduced 10.3″ threaded barrel, ambidextrous manual safety, and reversible magazine release, mirroring the LC Carbine’s beloved functionality. The LC Charger empowers shooters with a dynamic and potent option, adaptable to diverse shooting scenarios. Its compact form factor renders it ideal for those in pursuit of a compact 5.7mm firearm, easily transformable into a short-barreled rifle (SBR), or effortlessly employed for vehicle or home defense or a compact pest control or small game hunting rifle.
