Ruger 45 LC Carbine

[I Dont Care About You]

I have a number of 9mm carbines to play with but this new Ruger 45 LC Carbine has peaked my interest.

Obviously will need a Canada compliant 18.5" barrel. Uses Glock mags, which is nice.

The rifle pictured is for 45 ACP and yup I would love one of those
When you said 45 Long Colt I was like what the heck...
a 45 colt semi would be cool as hell though!!

Not long colt. It's name is the LC Carbine

LOL whenever I see 45 LC I think its the 45 long colt people are talking about

Your not alone I thought 45 Colt also. Now I have to go have a look.

okay $1009 US with restricted barrel. Non restricted and I’d be interested

I wonder if it would meet the minimum OAL requirement with an 18.5" barrel and the folding stock. I'm assuming the rifle is still operable with the stock folded or removed.

I kinda thought the same and had to go look at Ruger website to make sure I had the name correct.

This carbine seems to be a rifle version of the Charger Pistol.

Reading a review it appears to be 28" OAL with the 16" barrel and the stock folded. It'll be fine with a CDN compliant 18.5" barrel.

Hopefully it can come in under the same FRT entry as the 5.7 LC carbine.

The 5.7 LC Carbine is 22.5 inches in OAL when folded, hence my post. Perhaps the 45 LC uses a longer receiver(?).

Internet information, for what it's worth:

https://www.firearmsnews.com/editor...el pistol,overall length measures 28.7 inches.

"The LC Carbine comes with one Ruger-5.7 steel pistol magazine, M-LOK QD sling socket and hex wrenches for disassembly. Weight is a fairly handy 5.9 pounds and overall length with the stock folded is only 22.5 inches. With the stock unfolded, but fully collapsed, the overall length measures 28.7 inches."

Yeah, it's neat how they have both the PC and LC Charger and then the carbine equivalents. Having a 5.7 carbine would be zippy!

Any signs of a non-restricted version coming?

 

[CBCAN]

Yeah, this one looks like fun.

 

[Esteban]

I'd get one if they come to Canada

 

[RRH.01]

I’d jump in one for sure, the pcc is just too damn ugly. Seen it quoted here “life’s to short for ugly guns”

 

[Esteban]

all Ruger's are pretty ugly in my opinion......except the vintage ones

 

[The Whip]

I'll take one in 40 or 9mm

Hickoock45 recently ran a video demonstrating the Ruger LC in .45 ACP. Looks like a fun little gun.

I don't care about 45, ammo costs are too high for punching paper for me, but I love the look and the fact it has the mag well in the grip. Along with a reversible mag release and charging handle, and ambi safety this could be one of the best lefty-friendly PCCs. Just need them in 9mm!

It will get banned just because it has 'AUTO' markings
