  4. Ruger Debuts New Glock-pattern LC Carbine in 10mm Auto

Further fleshing out its line of pistol caliber blowback-action LC Carbines that accept common handgun magazines, Ruger has gone 10mm. 

The company introduced its current fourth-generation centerfire PCC platform in 2022 as a rifle variant of the Ruger 57 pistol in 5.7x28, then added a .45 ACP companion earlier this year at SHOT Show. Now, the news has come that the LC Carbine will be offered in the resurgent 10mm Auto chambering. Best yet, it accepts standard Glock-pattern double-stack 10mm magazines – even legacy 3rd Gen models.

When the stock is collapsed to the shortest length of pull, the LC Carbine is 28.6 inches long. Weight is 7.1 pounds, unloaded. It ships with one 30-round aftermarket (SGM) magazine and flip-up sights.

The octagonal aluminum free-float handguard has M-LOK attachment slots, while the carbine also sports QD attachment points for slings, and a full-length top Picatinny rail for AR-height optics. Don't like the stock? It can be replaced with AR-pattern stocks.

 

The bad news is that the Ruger LC Carbine in 10mm has an MSRP of $1,049, which, while just $40 more than its .45 and 5.7mm brothers in the same family, is still kind of spendy for a PCC.

Still, there aren't a lot of 10mm carbines out there, with the Ruger falling squarely between the $400-ish Hi-Point 1095 and the super Gucci $1,400 KRISS CRB – which probably gives the new offering a wide open market for those who wish to run the "centimeter" in a full-length barrel.
