The RUGER
®
CARBINE is chambered for, and designed to properly func-
tion with, only factory loaded 9mm Luger (Parabellum) or .40 Auto ammunition
(standard, high velocity, +P, or +P+ ammunition) manufactured to U.S. industry
standards.
SPECIAL NOTE: The higher pressures produced by the .40 auto cartridge make
the use of aluminum-cased .40 auto ammunition inadvisable in the Ruger
Carbine or any other “blowback” -operated firearm. Occasional case separations
and jamming of the mechanism may occur. This does not apply to locked-breech
firearms such as the Ruger P-94 pistols.
Use only
such factory ammunition in good condition that exactly matches the
caliber of your rifle that is rollmarked on the receiver.
