Ruger-57 5.7x28mm Full-Size Semi-Auto Pistol, 20+1, Optics-Ready, Black Nitride
The Ruger-57 pairs the flat-shooting 5.7x28mm cartridge with a light, full-size pistol that holds 20+1 rounds and ships optics-ready from the factory. Its 4.94" alloy-steel barrel, ambidextrous manual safety, and glass-filled nylon frame keep weight low while maintaining strength. An early 2020 production gun in the “641” serial range, this example is eligible for Ruger’s safety-lever retrofit program, adding extra peace of mind for owners or collectors.

Designed around Ruger’s single-action delayed-blowback system, the Ruger-57 delivers mild recoil despite its high-velocity caliber. The flat-faced, skeletonized trigger and neutrally balanced sear provide a consistent break for fast follow-up shots.
The slide is black-nitride finished, cut with front and rear serrations, and factory drilled and tapped for optics adapter plates. A lightening window reduces reciprocating mass, aiding in quicker cycling.
Bright green fiber-optic front sight and an adjustable serrated rear sight give a clear aiming picture. The integral nine-slot 1913 Picatinny rail accepts lights or lasers without additional hardware.
Ruger’s multiple safety systems include an ambidextrous thumb safety, trigger blade safety, loaded-chamber inspection port, hammer catch, and internal neutrally balanced sear. Together they offer layered protection while keeping controls intuitive.
