Ruger's LC Carbine in .45 Auto features a 16.25'' threaded barrel, folding adjustable stock, Rapid Deploy sights, and accepts Glock-pattern magazines. Includes 13-round magazine.
The Ruger LC Carbine represents a thoughtful approach to the modern pistol-caliber carbine. Chambered in .45 Auto and rated for SAAMI-spec +P ammunition, this rifle delivers the proven stopping power of the .45 with the control and accuracy advantages of a carbine platform.
The LC Carbine employs a unique bolt-over-barrel design with the magazine housed in the grip, resulting in excellent balance and pointability. This configuration makes the rifle feel natural to shooters familiar with modern sporting rifles.
Key ergonomic features include:
The 16.25-inch alloy steel barrel is threaded with .578"-28 TPI, allowing attachment of suppressors, flash hiders, and muzzle brakes. A thread protector is included. The full-length Picatinny rail accommodates optics, while the CNC-milled handguard features M-LOK slots on seven sides for tactical accessories.
Ruger's Rapid Deploy folding sights are adjustable for windage and elevation, and fold away when not needed—ideal for storage or when using mounted optics. The reversible, side-folding stock features adjustable length of pull and can be replaced with standard AR-pattern stocks if desired.
The Secure Action fire-control system combines a protected internal hammer with a bladed-safety trigger. The trigger breaks clean with positive reset. Multiple safety features—including an integrated trigger safety, lightweight firing pin, and hammer catch—ensure reliable operation.
The LC Carbine accepts commonly available Glock-pattern full-size magazines. The standard configuration includes one 13-round magazine.
Each rifle ships with one magazine, an M-LOK QD sling socket, and hex wrenches for field disassembly and maintenance.
