LAS VEGAS -- At SHOT Show 2020, Magpul Industries introduced its new backpacker stock for the Ruger Pistol-Caliber Carbine to offer hikers an extremely stowable survival rifle for the trail.

Building on the success of the full-size Ruger American Pistol introduced in Dec. 2015, the company has announced a Compact model that will appeal to armed citizens and concealed-carry practitioners.

Although the Security-9 Compact leans towards being a more utilitarian pistol, it's got a sleek styling and level of fit and finish that are comparable to Ruger models with larger price tags.
