Ruger PC9 Carbine

Post by jeep45238 »

Apparently these are starting to show up in the wild. Essentially picture a takedown 10/22, scaled up a bit, and taking both Ruger SR mags and Glock mags.

The magwell install between the action and stock, and apparently only take a few moments to change. Length of pull is adjustable by adding or removing spacers at the butt.

So far the aftermarket has figured out that 10/22 trigger components will work.

Stumbled across these guys - looks like there’s some positive parts to check out. One thing I noted is that they have an oversized mag release that will release with a hit of the palm, and also one that will release with the trigger finger. The magwell looks interesting too.

Website seems to have some issues right now, but an image search pulls up some cool goodies. In the meantime, this cached result should give a good idea of what’s out there:

I’m picturing this with 10 round glock mags, a G26, in a sneakybag would make for great interstate travel, especially through ban-states. Combine with a takedown 10/22 and you’ve got a wide range of things covered in one bag that doesn’t scream ‘gun’.

Not sure whose review I read, but the gun showed some really good accuracy at 50 yards.
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

As an SR9c owner, that's honestly pretty neat! :) Thanks! I wasn't aware of this one.

I'd read about these and was seriously wanting one,however this month's Lima gun show ate up my firearm fund for the foreseeable future.

But have his weapons to hand:
He knows not when he may need a spear,
Or what menace meet on the road.
