Ruger brings back the PCC in 9mm?

[It wasn't me]

I was just about to buy a Ruger PC Carbine until watched Hickok45's 40 minute video review on it:

Not terrible but I'm leaning back towards the Beretta CX4 again......

Thoughts after watching the video?

Someone pointed out that he did not tighten the barrel nut after putting the barrel on. That could lead to some issues...
(I just got one of these, and its not obvious that the nut needs to be turned, its quite low profile, and kind of hard to grasp and turn)

Collectors Gallery has just a few @ 499. got mine this morning

I looked at one Friday. Heavier than you think. I like the fact that left handed shooters only have to unscrew the charging handle and screw it in on the left side.

300 rds in with glock mags. zero malfunctions. runs great. the aluminum machining is very nice. as mentioned its'a a wee bit heavy but nothing terrible. really no complaints.

Isn't there a part of the bolt made from tungsten? That might be part of the weight difference tungsten is quite dense/ heavy.

Hickock45 did a "chapter 2" video recently where he put another one through the paces. This one had none of the problems the first one did.

Every gun store I have been into recently says they get multiple calls a day for this rifle. I guarantee there are more calibers coming. A 10mm would be beyond epic...

Last Sunday at my gun club......there were three guys there shooting new pcc rugers. I'd say they are selling. I'm going to wait a year for the real reviews to come in.....and hopefully a 45acp version is out then.

Did somebody mention "group buy"?

That would be pretty cool.

Can you get an M&P Mag adapter? I like the .45ACP idea and logically would suggest the near-universal 1911 mag compatibility, but most are only 7 or 8 rounds.

Someone posted a 'Version 2' of this video above in the thread. It performed great except one FTE with a Security 9 mag.

It’s not ideal but just being able to pair it with a pistol is a really cool thing. The Hi Point only has 9-10rd mags in every caliber and is still pretty nifty even though it doesn’t pair with a real pistol.

Buying a bunch of basic 8 rounders at 9$ each would serve many well.

Something like the Ruger compatible 10-22 25 round magazine would be awesome:

I wish it didn’t look so retarded.

I guess I should channel my inner Schmeisser and try to like it.

 

[DJBrad]

I love mine with the fun sticks. Not one problem with hundreds of rounds.

I prefer the look of the old PC models, however the take down feature is a plus.
The prices have come down too, PSA has them for $449, but I'm not biting.

 

[Zappa]

PSA now has them for $399 with Free Shipping:

My PC Carbine with Taccom goodies including ULM hand guard, MagPul Angled Fore Grip and Tandemkross Trigger and Bushnell TRS-25.

It is heavier than I thought it would be.

It’s a heck of a lot of fun on the range.

Good gun.

My 10 year old picked it up and was drilling steel at 90 yards within a few minutes once he got used to the sight. Tiny steel. Steel so small this old man cant’t see it. Can only hear it.

So, yeah. Good gun.
