Ruger LC Carbine 19302 5.7x28mm 16.25" 10+1 Capacity Compliant

Description

The Ruger LC Carbine Model 19302 is the capacity-compliant 5.7x28mm version of Ruger’s lightweight LC Carbine platform. It features a 16.25-inch fluted and nitride-treated barrel, 10+1 capacity, reversible side-folding adjustable stock, Ruger Rapid Deploy folding sights, aluminum M-LOK handguard, full-length Picatinny rail, and Secure Action™ fire-control system. Ruger identifies this exact configuration as Model 19302 / UPC 736676193028.

The major distinction between Model 19302 and the standard Model 19300 is magazine capacity. Model 19302 is specifically designated by Ruger as a Capacity Compliant Model and ships with a 10-round Ruger-5.7 steel pistol magazine, resulting in a 10+1 capacity. It retains the threaded barrel and folding adjustable stock of the standard LC Carbine.

Chambered in 5.7x28mm, the LC Carbine uses the same steel magazine design as the Ruger-5.7 pistol. Ruger’s bolt-over-barrel architecture positions the magazine inside the pistol grip, helping centralize the firearm’s mass for balance and control.

The rifle uses a 16.25-inch fluted, nitride-treated steel barrel with eight grooves and a 1:9" right-hand twist. Its muzzle is threaded 1/2"-28 and supplied with a thread protector.

Model 19302 features a reversible, side-folding stock with adjustable length of pull. Ruger lists the LOP range as 12.69" to 14.62". The folding stock and collapsible sights make the carbine substantially more compact for storage while retaining a full 16.25-inch barrel.

The receiver is constructed from aluminum alloy with a Type III hard-coat anodized finish. Its CNC-milled aluminum handguard is also Type III hard-coat anodized and provides M-LOK accessory slots and multiple QD sling sockets. A Picatinny rail at the rear of the receiver expands accessory compatibility.

For sighting, Ruger equips the 19302 with Rapid Deploy folding sights adjustable for windage and elevation. A full-length Picatinny rail provides ample mounting space for compatible optics.

The LC Carbine uses Ruger’s Secure Action™ fire-control system, combining a protected internal hammer with a bladed-safety trigger. Controls include a 1911-style ambidextrous manual safety, reversible charging handle, ergonomic bolt release, and extended magazine release.

At only 5.9 pounds, Model 19302 remains exceptionally light for a full-length carbine. Ruger lists an overall length of 30.60 inches and currently shows the model as Available, with a suggested retail price of $1,039.00.
