The SR45 delivers a 10+1 capacity in a full-size .45 ACP platform with a 4.5 in stainless steel barrel and a 1:16 RH twist. It is striker-fired and built on a durable black glass-filled nylon frame designed for everyday durability.
The brushed stainless slide is factory marked "RUGER PRESCOTT, AZ USA" with the Ruger phoenix logo. It features rear serrations (no front serrations) and a prominent, top-mounted loaded chamber indicator clearly marked "LOADED WHEN UP."
Sight configuration is an adjustable 3-dot system: a white-dot front blade and an adjustable rear with both windage and elevation settings. This setup supports precise point-of-aim adjustments with an elevation screw on the rear sight body.
Ergonomics are enhanced by a reversible flat/arched backstrap to tailor grip contour. An integral accessory rail with one cross slot is molded into the frame for mounting compatible lights or accessories.
Safety features are comprehensive: ambidextrous manual thumb safety, trigger safety blade, firing pin block, magazine disconnect, and the visual/tactile loaded chamber indicator. This example is the KSR45 configuration (Ruger Model 03801), made in the USA in 2015, from a series later discontinued circa 2017.
