I put one on layaway at my LGS yesterday.
Basically a 9mm version of the 10/22 best I can tell. However, there are some very, very good 9mm ammo choices out there these days.
Got to test a Marlin Camp 9 for a weekend once and velocity was 200+ fps more in the Carbine. Most of the reviews of the new Ruger puts groups in the 1" at 50 yards with a scope mounted.
Kicker for me was 9mm ammo can be purchased for less than the cost of 22 Magnum.
I have a couple Tasco Bantam 2.5x scopes hoarded back that'll be just about right for this gun.
Add a TAC Light and critters at night will be in real trouble...

I had been looking at the 40 S&W version of previous models... wasn't aware they had started making them again??? ruger.com/products/pcCarbine/models.htmlHmmm... all 3 are 9mm... so no new 40 S&W... & with that threaded barrel, a 45 ACP version would be practical... maybe coming down the line, depending on how the "9" sells??? |

Could be a consideration. Was interested in building an AR based 9mm PCC but watching a shooter fight with one on the range one day put a damper in that idea. Magazines for the Ruger may be a concern. The PCC shooters like big ones. Hi Cap Glock and Colt mags are easy. Don't know about Ruger.

Got one on the range today. Part installed to use Glock magazines. Gun Ran 100%. The gun is take down much like the takedown 10-22. Range guys said the trigger was decent.

Hay Axe, I picked up a Sig MPX 9mm Carbine last week an it has been a load of fun. It didn't have any sights and I didn't want to take a red dot of one of my AR's soI put a par of pop up sight on it I had in my parts box. Waiting on a Sig Romeo 5 I have ordered to come in and I think will be a real killer. I'm rigging it up for a dedicated house gun.  Bill |
