Manufacturer: Ruger Type: Pistol Model: SR40C Caliber: .40 S&W Barrel Length: 3.5" Optics: N/A ATF Form 4473 Required: Yes  Log: 2494 S/N: 343-77759 Ref #: N/A Notes: The Ruger SR40c is a compact, striker-fired semi-automatic pistol designed for concealed carry and self-defense, offering a balance of firepower and manageable recoil in a lightweight package. Introduced in the early 2010s as part of Ruger’s SR-series, the SR40c is a scaled-down version of the full-size SR40, chambered in .40 S&W—a high-pressure cartridge known for its stopping power. This example, serial number 343-77759, features a 3.5-inch stainless steel barrel and a glass-filled nylon frame, contributing to its relatively lightweight profile of approximately 23.4 ounces unloaded. The pistol has an overall length of 6.85 inches and includes Ruger’s signature loaded chamber indicator, ambidextrous safety, and reversible magazine release. It comes with a standard 9-round magazine for compact carry, along with an extended 15-round magazine for improved grip and capacity. The SR40c utilizes a pre-tensioned striker system for a consistent trigger pull, averaging around 6 pounds, and incorporates a low-bore axis to aid in recoil management. With a muzzle velocity of approximately 1,000 to 1,200 feet per second, depending on the ammunition used, the .40 S&W cartridge delivers substantial energy while maintaining control in a compact platform. The pistol is fitted with a three-dot sight system for quick target acquisition and features an accessory rail for mounting lights or lasers. This example is in poor overall condition, with surface rust present throughout the firearm, including on the slide, barrel, and controls. The included extended magazine also exhibits rust and wear. Despite its cosmetic degradation, the action remains functional, and the safeties operate as intended. Further cleaning and maintenance may be necessary to ensure optimal performance.
