I have the Ruger 57 handgun and really do like it but have no interest in the rifle.

Yeah, PSA is out of stock but allows for notification. OP doesn't say out of stock but has "Check for Availability" link. But like some posters on this forum have stated, OP sometimes indicates it's in stock, you order it, only to have them say it's out and Backorder-able. It's happened to me, sometimes I wait, other times I've canceled.

This on On Classic Firearm seems to be in stock. It looks like they also sell additional 50 round mags for about $16.60.

That's the irritating part getting the back order after paying.

Interesting talk with Tom Gresham and Ruger's Brandon Trevino on "Gun Talk" (duration 11:54) about the Ruger 5.7x28 LC Carbine and their also announces SFAR 308's they announced. While talking about the availability & price of 5.7 ammo, Brandon mentioned rumors that seemed to hint at Ruger manufacturing their own ammo? I personally haven't heard that rumor, but that would be interesting.

With my early stockpile of 57 I'm good.

Same here, but I need to try some Federal 5.7 to see how it does in my AR57.

I ordered a complete upper in 57 from psa and awaiting the arrival.

FN designed it & it's platform the P90 as a CQB PDW round.
It fills that CQB role, and a good back-up to a shotgun in that role.
Otherwise, a spendy niche round.

Besides the FN P90 mags these work as well and are cheaper.

I have a Ruger 57. Love it. When I got it ammo was 24.99 on sale for 19.99. Bought a bunch. Now, at 50.00 to 65.00, not buying any. Maybe when prices cCarbine. down to earth, I may pick up the carbine.
