Agree 100%, I could care less about the Ruger mag when I have dozens of Glock mags, many 10-rounders here and standard 17-rounders in Nevada.

I have a request in for either version. Told my FFL to keep the mag if I get the threaded barrel version. But I wont mind the unthreaded either. I also have a boatload of Glock mags already.

Oh noes, we have to wait until Feb?!!? I guess we have to wait for Shot Show to conclude then we will see the new stuff on the shelves, most of which we wont be able to get in the Republik anyhow.

Plus as alternates, there are blocked mags, G17 mags, G26 mags, Gen 5 mags. It is raining down proven mags for this carbine. |

I'm in....I want it. 9mm is my "house wine". This is a great product idea from Ruger. It comes with a Glock magazine conversion bit. I've seen the video on how you install that and it is dead simple.
I'm definitely a buyer. Will look forward to some actual buyer/user reviewing it here.

I'm looking forward to this little carbine, but 9mm is well bourbon, heheh. Car analogies are annoying to me but alcohol has no effect.

I'd want a 10mm version.
I'm sure someone else mentioned that in this thread, but I didn't want to read 7 pages.

That would be good because the first thought I had when seeing the take down was zeroing issues with a red dot or scope

Should be "safe" to shoot steel at 25 yards with this right?
Velocity is a bit higher due to rifle length barrel but it's still pistol caliber.

Probably safe at 10 yards.

This illustrates something that some shooters refuse to acknowledge, that there are modern 9mm factory loads out there that are much nastier than what was available in years gone by, whether from pistol barrels or longer, and are plenty sufficient for self defense. Yup, someone will pop up and say, yes, but it's not as fast as "x", like 6.5 Creedmore or something, or yes, but my .45acp develops 596 ft/lbs of energy. Great....shoot what you like, I say. 9mm is my chosen caliber. I'm going to buy the new Ruger PC9 Carbine. I'd like to have one handy around the house when the unwashed masses rise up from the cities, storming into the suburbs and surrounding towns, demanding the economic justice promised to them by our previous Dear Leader. Sorry....got carried away there. It'll be fun to shoot.

I'd love to see what a 10mm traveling 2400+ fps can do... wonder what it'd be out of a carbine barrel. |

I'm just stating the obvious but this new Ruger 9mm carbine, that could take Glock mags, has gotten more attention and post that seem mostly positive and hopeful than any other new fire arm that's been posted on Calguns in a long long time.
I sure hope this is big hit for Ruger and they really start to mass-produce them to help bring and keep the prices down. |

Ruger listened and gave the market what it asked. I can't wait for different versions such as one with a full length wood stock.
It's also nice we can buy this thing in CA without jumping through any hoops Quote:

As far as picking up 150-200 FPS....not in my testing. Using WWB 115gr factory ammo I get around 1250 FPS out of my Taccom PCC rig....5 1/2” barrel with pinned and welded extension to make 16” barrel. My JP GMT-13 with a 14 1/2” barrel (pinned muzzle brake) using the same WWB ammo I averaged 1325 FPS. We shoot steel targets with PCC rigs as close as 7 yards during steel challenge and USPSA matches with no problem. .

Which professional testing?
You aren't going to pick up more than about 75fps in 9mm, even in +p. Not a hater. I have an MPX and still plan to get me one of these, but the 9mm out of a 16in barrel shoots like it does out of a 5in barrel. http://ballisticsbytheinch.com/9luger.html |

And gimmick round? Is the Federal 105gr a gimmick round? It was 164FPS faster from the test barrels. The 9mm rounds 'people actually shoot' are usually from handguns. Most 9mm ammo is shot from handguns I'm guessing. So the commonly found rounds are not made hotter than they need to be. But hotter ammo is out there, and it performs substantially better from a longer barrel. If you are shooting mouse gun ammo out of your carbine, don't blame the carbine.
