The 5.7x28mm cartridge isn\u2019t really what you\u2019d call \u201cmainstream.\u201d But Ruger\u2019s decision to jump into the 5.7mm game has sparked a renewed interest in the little bottleneck, and we stopped by their booth at Shot SHOW 2020 to see it for ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul Pluff, Ruger\u2019s Public Relations Manager, explained that the company wanted to release a handgun chambered in 5.7mm because they saw its potential for self-defense and, as he put it, \u201cthis gun is just fun to shoot.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That latter point is definitely true. The 5.7mm cartridge naturally produces very little recoil, and the thin grip and low bore axis help users control what little recoil it does produce. The grip is nicely textured, and the beavertail provides lots of space to maintain contact with the handgun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The hammer-fired, double-action-only trigger is smooth, crisp, and consistent, which lets users throw lots of lead downrange in a timely fashion. But the included 20-round metal magazine also means you aren\u2019t constantly reloading, and the 5-inch, alloy steel barrel ensures you\u2019ll hit what you\u2019re aiming at. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The handgun comes with a set of durable sights, and the rear\nis adjustable for both windage and elevation. For those users who\u2019ve jumped onto\nthe red-dot wagon, the Ruger-57 also comes with plates that adapt to Vortex and\nBurris red dots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"643\" title=\"5.7mm Goes Mainstream with the Ruger-57 Pistol \u2013 Shot Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Trigger-1024x643.jpg\" alt=\"5.7mm Goes Mainstream with the Ruger-57 Pistol \u2013 Shot Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-122101\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Trigger-1024x643.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Trigger-400x251.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Trigger-150x94.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Trigger-768x482.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Trigger.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"650\" title=\"5.7mm Goes Mainstream with the Ruger-57 Pistol \u2013 Shot Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rear-Sight-1024x650.jpg\" alt=\"5.7mm Goes Mainstream with the Ruger-57 Pistol \u2013 Shot Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-122102\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rear-Sight-1024x650.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rear-Sight-400x254.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rear-Sight-150x95.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rear-Sight-768x488.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rear-Sight.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"621\" title=\"5.7mm Goes Mainstream with the Ruger-57 Pistol \u2013 Shot Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rail-1024x621.jpg\" alt=\"5.7mm Goes Mainstream with the Ruger-57 Pistol \u2013 Shot Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-122103\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rail-1024x621.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rail-400x243.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rail-150x91.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rail-768x466.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Rail.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"666\" title=\"5.7mm Goes Mainstream with the Ruger-57 Pistol \u2013 Shot Show 2020\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Grip-1024x666.jpg\" alt=\"5.7mm Goes Mainstream with the Ruger-57 Pistol \u2013 Shot Show 2020\" class=\"wp-image-122104\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Grip-1024x666.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Grip-400x260.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Grip-150x98.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Grip-768x500.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Grip.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/diamondbacks-5-7mm-pistol-shot-show-2020\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"ruger-57-shot-show-2020\" title=\"5.7mm Goes Mainstream with the Ruger-57 Pistol \u2013 Shot Show 2020\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Diamondback\u2019s New 5.7mm Pistol Is the 5.7mm You\u2019ve Been Waiting For \u2013 SHOT Show 2020 (opens in a new tab)\">Diamondback\u2019s New 5.7mm Pistol Is the 5.7mm You\u2019ve Been Waiting For \u2013 SHOT Show 2020<\/a> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The 5.7&#215;28 cartridge was developed in the early &#8217;90s by FN Herstal as a possible replacement for NATO\u2019s 9x19mm Parabellum.
