The New Pistol from RUGER in the hot 5.7x28mm caliber. If you wanted the 5.7×28 round, but didn’t want to pay the FN Five-seven price, Ruger has got the All-American answer. The light, striker fired “57” is wonderful to shoot and each magazine (2 included) holds 20 rounds of 5.7x28mm ammo. The long sight plane and bright fiber-optic front sight make acquiring and hitting your target fairly easy. The slide top is also drilled and tapped to add a Red Dot sight in the future, if you should so choose. A picatinny rail underneath the slide front allows you to add a light or laser increasing your night-time use versatility. The safety and magazine release (changeable) are ambidextrous, so you can enjoy using with either hand. For the price, it would be hard to find a more versatile handgun with as much capacity and power.
