The Ruger American Compact 9mm (Model 8635) delivers full-size performance in a more compact, carry-friendly package. With a 3.55″ stainless steel barrel, black nitride slide, and a 17+1 capacity, this pistol offers the ideal balance of concealability, capacity, and control.
Its high-strength black polymer frame includes an integrated Picatinny rail for mounting lights or lasers, while the wraparound grip module features aggressive texturing for confident handling in all conditions. The frame also accepts interchangeable backstraps to customize fit for different hand sizes.
Internally, the pre-tensioned striker system delivers a crisp, clean trigger break and fast reset. Ruger’s barrel cam system helps reduce felt recoil and muzzle rise, allowing for faster, more accurate follow-up shots. The black nitride slide features front and rear serrations for easy manipulation under pressure.
