Ruger now has magazine compatible 5.7x28mm Carbine and Handguns. Compatibility is a compelling option as internal tensions continue to rise in the United States. Caliber consolidation is a budget-conscious approach to ensuring you have the resources your family and clan will need. A handgun caliber compatible Carbine can save money and storage space when considering uses in various applications along with the handgun.
The Carbine comes in a standard configuration (Pictured) and two models with less scary features for communist states. Those may not be compatible with the handgun’s 20 round magazines. The handgun comes in several designs, included on the page is a neat video showing a cutaway of the handgun’s functions.
I took the liberty of making a request to Sturm, Ruger, & Co., Inc., asking for one each of the Carbine and Handgun to write an online review of both here at TCJ. Although we don’t expect an answer, you just never know. Herschel should keep an on the Blog’s email inbox. I knew he wouldn’t mind ;-)

Y’all know how much I love the notion of a pistol and rifle that shoot the same round.
Good job, although I don’t expect Ruger to oblige us.

They are both out. I have seen the carbine listed at just under $1000. The handgun has been going for $650, give or take. But that 5.7x28mm ammo is expensive and rare. The local Rural King had some the other day. $50 for 50 rounds, or close enough to $1 a round not to make much difference.

I’m interested in the new carbine having recently shot their 5.7 pistol. What I would have really loved to see from them was a charger sized platform in 5.7 but then we can’t have everything.
Hope you can get your hands on one I’d enjoy hearing your opinions on them.
In regards to the cost of ammo PSA has stated that they plan on producing 5.7 ammo shortly which would be wonderful in driving costs down.
