The manual-safety submodel pairs Ruger’s Secure Action internal-hammer fire control with a locked-breech design in a true micro size. Capacity is 10+1 rounds via a staggered-to-single-feed magazine, offering notable round count for this format. The frame is marked “PISTOL WILL FIRE WITH MAGAZINE REMOVED,” indicating there is no magazine disconnect.
Sight picture is fast and practical: a dovetailed tritium front with a white outline (H3-marked) teams with a drift-adjustable U-notch rear. The rear sight’s square front face is designed to catch a surface for one-handed slide manipulation if needed.
The slide carries front and rear cocking serrations and is finished in purple for a distinctive look. The frame is glass-filled nylon to keep weight down while maintaining rigidity.
Dimensions remain pocket-friendly with an approximate 2.8 in barrel, overall length of about 5.17 in, and an unloaded weight near 10.6 oz. This example is marked Mayodan, North Carolina, USA, and was manufactured in 2022. The listed MSRP is $449.
