American Rifleman's Mark Keefe takes a look at the Ruger Security-9 Compact. A scaled-down version of the full-size Security-9, the Security-9 Compact is designed for concealment, with an internal hammer, a 3.42" barrel, a 6.5" overall length, dovetailed sights and a polymer frame. The pistol also features a 10-round magazine, compatible with 15-round full-size Security-9 magazines and a manual safety.
