#RUGER 9MM CARBINE AMERICAN FLAG PC#
The heart of the PC carbine is its interesting blow-back operating system. So out of the gate the new Ruger has a couple of nice features. The design is easy to use and based on the proven system introduced in 2012 on their 10/22 take-down model. Ruger’s PC carbine can be discreetly stored in a pack or large messenger bag. As take-down rifles require less space than a traditional rifle, they have long been popular as ‘survival’ guns. Its rapid tool-less disassembly allows it to be easily stored, even when space is at a premium. Yes, Ruger’s new design incorporates a simple take-down feature.

Have a need for a pistol caliber carbine which feeds from Glock mags and breaks down for easy storage? If so you may want to consider Ruger’s PC carbine. I believe this is a major selling point which will endear it to many Glock owners. Personally, I like having the ability to use Glock pattern 33-round stick magazines and 50-round drums. You can also buy a separate third magazine well which allows it to feed from Ruger American Pistol magazines. Feeding from Glock magazines is a big plus in my book. Ruger’s 9mm PC carbine can be fed using not only Ruger SR-Series and Security-9 magazines, but also common Glock 19/17 9mm magazines. The most important of these, in my humble opinion, is the modular magazine well. Ruger’s 9mm PC carbine packs a number of interesting features into a relatively conventional pistol caliber carbine.
