About the Ruger LC Charger
The Ruger LC Charger is the pistol variant of the LC Carbine, chambered in 5.7x28mm with a 10.3-inch barrel. It shares the same action and magazine system as the LC Carbine but is classified as a pistol due to the absence of a shoulder stock.
The LC Charger extends Ruger's 5.7x28mm ecosystem alongside the Ruger-5.7 pistol and LC Carbine, offering three different form factors in the same caliber with magazine commonality.
