Ruger American Compact Semi-Auto Pistol

The Ruger® American® Compact Semi-Auto Pistol performs flawlessly in extreme conditions, is comfortable to carry, and highly controllable to shoot. The Ruger American is a striker-fired, polymer-frame pistol utilizing the Browning-type locked-breech action with a unique barrel cam modification that reduces recoil by spreading the recoil impulse over time. The reduced recoil and low bore axis work in unison to enhance control during rapid fire. The steel trigger has a central trigger safety lever to prevent the pistol from firing unless the trigger is fully depressed; and a visual inspection port allows you to see if the chamber is loaded at a glance. The ergonomic polymer frame features a CNC-machined stainless steel chassis that the steel slide travels on. The modular grip system comes with 3 interchangeable wraparound grip modules for adjusting palm swell and trigger reach. Novak® LoMount Carry front and rear 3-dot sights provide rapid sight acquisition, and are unobtrusive when drawing the pistol from a holster. An integral Picatinny rail in front of the trigger guard provides an attachment point for aftermarket lights and sights. The slide stop and magazine release are both ambidextrous. Includes 3, seven-round plated steel magazines.
