This Ruger American Pistol Compact is chambered in 9mm Luger and is configured with a manual safety. Originally introduced in December 2015, the feature-rich Ruger American Pistol was designed with the latest U.S. Military standards in mind and was tested in the harshest environments to ensure the rugged reliability consumers have come to expect from Ruger.
With a 3.55" barrel, overall dimensions of 6.65" long, 4.48" high and a weight of 28.75 ounces with an empty magazine, the Ruger American Pistol Compact model shares all of the features and rugged reliability of the duty-size gun in a smaller, lighter, more concealable package. It ships in a hard case with small, medium and large replaceable grip modules and two nickel-Teflon® plated steel magazines (one 17-round extended magazine and one 12-round compact magazine).
The American-made Ruger American Pistol is built on a rigid, one-piece, precision-machined, black nitrided, stainless steel chassis with integral frame rails and fire control housing. Additional features include genuine Novak® LoMount Carry three-dot sights, a stainless steel slide with non-reflective, black nitride finish, a one-piece, high-performance, glass-filled nylon grip frame and a mil-standard 1913 accessory rail.

- Trigger features a short takeup with positive reset.

- Safe, easy takedown with no tools or trigger pull required.

- Safety features include internal, automatic sear block system, ambidextrous manual safety, integrated trigger safety and no trigger pull required for takedown.
- Also includes - Two nickel-Teflon® plated steel magazines (one 12-round and one 17-round with grip extension); small, medium and large grip modules.
- Pre-tensioned striker system features a powerful striker spring for positive ignition without a heavier trigger pull.
- Non-slip surfaces including functional slide serrations and purpose-oriented grip frame texturing for enhanced control.

Customer Comments & Questions

I love this pistol. So far, I've only fired 200 rounds but it ate everything I threw at it - Remington, Blazer, and Perfecta. It is very accurate and surprisingly soft shooting for a smallish 9mm. It's also built like a tank and very easy to break down for cleaning. I plan on firing 200 more rounds through it and a couple mags of SD ammo then it will probably go to the top of my carry rotation. SOS was awesome also - great price and reasonably fast shipping.
Bought this pistol as my first purchase online and from SOSS. The gun was delivered earlier than expected and is a great value also. This is just a solid work horse Ruger has put out. I can't say enough good things about my experience with Sportsman's Outdoor Superstore. Thanks!!
Looks great, a great shooter, reliable, and looks great! Did I mention it looks great. The only negative about this gun, is that it is a bit on the heavy side! I love this gun!
This Ruger American Compact is an ideal concealed carry high capacity 9mm. The grip is long enough to get a full hold without having to use the extended magazine. The three blackstrap sizes are spaced so that anyone can have a comfortable trigger reach. The palm swell is actually designed to fit in your palm, and not below your palm like many others. The low bore axis, extra few ounces, and recoil reducing cam make this an extremely stable shooting platform. Trigger is a true single action, not spongy and reset is good.
If you like a manual safety, the safety lever is in the perfect position for easy manipulation with your thumb. The Ruger American compares favorably to more expensive models from Walther, H&K, Glock, and S&W.
