You ShotShow guys see that on the last go-round?
I just saw rumor of it on IMGUR https://imgur.com/gallery/x0K63R8 Went to Recoil magazine, and while they do have a "Going Hot" section (worth checking out) I didn't see anything on the Ruger 57 nor is there anything at Ruger.com _________________ “Finding ‘common ground’ with the thinking of evil men is a fool’s errand” ~ Herschel Smith "The “A return to First Principles in a Republic is sometimes caused by simple virtues of a single man.

If not a joke, then I keep my fingers for Ruger 762 coming next.

That would be an impressive move by Ruger. Fast moving small bullets has been a slow moving trend in handguns. I have always liked the .45 ACP round but I think this is the future defensive handguns. Bad guys are wearing body armor too.

This guy is pretty goofy (and fun to watch him blow up stuff) but he bought some armor (a cheesy IIIa lined suit coat!). Seems like the 57 never went through. BIG rounds caused more damage from stuffing the armor into body cavities. https://youtu.be/ _________________ “Finding ‘common ground’ with the thinking of evil men is a fool’s errand” ~ Herschel Smith "The “A return to First Principles in a Republic is sometimes caused by simple virtues of a single man.

I do not think the 3A armor I wear would stop the 57 even with the trauma plate. |

You guys have fun with your .22 EuroMags. I'll be over here building my suppressed AR45 pistol/SBR candidate.
Until civilians can buy real 5.7 duty ammo and not the training stuff, there's zero interest here. I'd buy a Rock Island .22TCM double stack with a 9mm conversion barrel way before a 5.7. _________________ "Wherever you go, there you are." |

Not high on my list, but higher than the 5.7. _________________ "Wherever you go, there you are." |

SS190 is about $20/rd, which is crazy.
In the meanwhile, competitive penetrator - 7.62x25 Tokarev 85 grain lead core FMJ, - is only $.20/rd Seriously, I don’t fucking get gun manufacturers’ logic! _________________ FPC member GOA member Corruptissima re publica plurimae leges. |
