Ruger PC9 Carbine

[robin48]

I saw it and just had to have it. Little 9mm takedown carbine. Haven;t shot it yet, hopefully this weekend.

My father in law is really wanting one of these. Let us know how you like it!

Don't know how long I can resist.  I may lose the AR platform for this.  Thinkin' aboudit.

Why not both?

I have an older model Ruger carbine, however the one I have is in 40 caliber, and is not a takedown model. I purchased the one I have used and the extractor broke. Sent it back to Ruger and they repaired it free. I like the 40 although that caliber has become the ugly duckling caliber. I am sure the 9MM would be as good and a lot of fun to play with.

One drawback to the 40 is the ammo is much higher than the 9 MM.

I've been thinking about picking up one of those but I've read mixed reviews.  Let us know what you think after you've put a decent round count through it.

.40 is surprisingly affordable, have seen it for 12.99/13.99 off the shelf / online

Only recently noticed the pricing when I got my Sig p224 with .40 and .357 barrels.

@Garufa has one too. Has it been reliable so far? I like the fact that it uses Glock magazines.

I went and bought one and haven't even shot it yet.   Around the same time, I got the stamp for my scorpion and that's been getting all of my attention.

100% reliable.  It's the bee's knees.

If you ain't reloading you're not shooting enough.
