Its a good shooter. Never had anything like that or the sight magnifier. So I'll take your word for that Doc Holiday. But it looks like a fun shooter and pretty accurate out to 120 yards. Nice video. God Bless
I purchased the same ruger PC carbine 9mm, back in 2019 it's still stock, but I really enjoy shooting it I've ran over 300 rounds through the ruger PC, factory loads and my reloads, it has been very dependable and accurate, no issues with it, it's very enjoyable to shoot I'm going to put a optic on it, can't decide if it will be a lower power scope or a good red dot, maybe I'll try both!!!🇺🇸👍great video sir. That's great shooting at 100 and 50 yards!!! And God Bless you and your family 🙏
Thank you and thanks for sharing, since it's 9mm I would go with dependable red dot it should be enough for the shooting distance and keep the weight down. God bless you n your family as well. 😃
I have the Ruger PC Charger (6” barreled version of this carbine)! Same muzzle break, holosun 🔴 and, a light. Great truck gun/ backpack gun. Ate everything I’ve put through. Stay away from those ETS stick mags. Oem mags works flawlessly for me. I enjoy it a lot at the range
BTW, I mounted a HOLOSUN AEMS circle/dot sight. It is as good as the HOLOSUN 509T on my RUGER 57 pistol and its features make it a great carbine sight. I also now have MAGPUL MBUS co-witnessed sights for backup.
Been flirting with getting one of these for a while now. Had a chance to get one this last weekend (anniversary). I decided to go with the Glock G40 MOS 10mm instead. Pretty sure at some point though, a PC9 is in my future. And if they make one in 10mm using Glock mags? I would injure myself trying to get to my local gun shop for mine 😆
Good choice on G40 (I could shoot a clay pigeon out at 120 yards with open sights) I did a review on mine some time ago. If they have one in 10mm I would injure myself too. LOL
I went back and forth on it for a year or more and boy getting one has made range days much for fun. Recommend if your in to the pcc's, this is the one you want.
@@jimblackbird5678 Now that is an idea there Jim. I haven't thought about those uppers in years. Didn't know if they were still in production. Thanks for the reminder.
@@mattteeple2605 My original Deerfield was of 1968 vintage. And it without a doubt is the firearm I regret most, letting go of. I was able to get my hands on a 77/44 bolt action last year, like the Deerfield the 77/44 is right at 10/22 size and just a little heavier. Great walking gun in the woods. It will have to do till Ruger decides to bring another run of the Deerfields back.
@@mattteeple2605 Yeah Matt, the Number series of rifles, are real high on my firearms wish list. Had one at a local gun shop at a reasonable price. It was chambered in 220 Swift. A caliber I have next to no use for ( too many 223/556 weapons already ). So I passed on it. CDNN has a stainless #1 in 450 Bushmaster if that caliber interests you, price isnt horrible, considering it's new
TIP: Buy these two items for a FOLDING stock.-> 1.) Midwest Industries FOLDING BUFFER TUBE ADAPTOR 2.)LBE AR type "buffer" tube (to fit inside the RUGER factory MAGPUL MOE stock). ->Remove the "I-beam" from the rifle's rear Pic rail and then remove the stock. -> Clamp on the MI folding buffer tube adaptor to the rifle receiver vertical Pic rail ->after putting blue Loc-Tite on the tube threads then screw the tube into the MI folding adaptor KEEPING THE EXTRUSION EXACTLY ON THE BOTTOM when you finish and let Loc-Tite dry THOROUGHLY. -> After Loc-Tite has dried slip on MOE stock and adjust length. VOILE! A strong folding stock!
The OG carbine comes with the ghost ring sights but the tactical version doesn’t because the pic rails are in different places and the mlok rail doesn’t have a front sight. So mounting something like a 510c makes sense. Love your review friend! You look like an Asian Benjamin Bratt!
Great review.. one of the best I have seen. If it would not make a great home defence gun for you're liking, what would you suggest that is comparable to it?
For home defense I think shotgun with buckshots are best or 9mm pistol (having one free hand for light or cell phone is good) is also great but if you want go with AR style 9mm Freedom FX-9 is great (I have one and you can see the review on my channel), it's light, accurate and use glock magazine and I have one with 35 rounds. Thanks for watching n God bless.
Any bad guy entering my house would rethink their life choice looking down the barrel of a 9mm carbine. Not sure why you would think it isn't an effect HD firearm. Paul Harrell says his preferred home defense firearm is also a 9mm carbine.
@@kennethcurtis1856 If you have a chance you want to call 911 first before shooting unless you are in an immediate danger for your life, castle doctrine is not what it use to be. Always to train to protect yourself physically and legally.
How do you get that it's too heavy for a home defense gun? Its not like youre going to be holding that gun for a strenuous period of time during a home defense situation
For home defense it's good to hold the gun with one hand and have other hand free for calling 911, holding lights, opening door or even holding the hand of your loved ones.

9 lbs for a 9mm pcc 😂 . My 5.56 ar15 weighs 7lbs loaded with a 30 round magazine, flash light, and red dot. I own ruger pcc as well and its 7 lbs with the magpul pc backpacker stock. 9 lbs though...i guess to each their own.
“breaking in a barrel” is a myth. i don’t know why people believe in that. a bullet still has to go through a barrel regardless. and, spending that much on a glock magazine? someone got played. you can get one online way cheaper.
Barrel breaking does not really matter for most shooting with modern rifles but for precision shooting (shooting under 1MOA) helps by creating a copper equilibrium in the barrel. So pistol caliber is not necessary but it won't hurt it so I just do it on all new firearms.
As General Mathis said (paraphrasing): This country is screwed after I watched kids today struggle to put their bags in overhead compartments on the plane.
Ruger builds an outstanding firearm. I have never been disappointed by anything they have ever made.
YUP! Thanks for sharing n happy new year.
Nice to hear prices up front. Hardly anyone does that. Great video and shooting!
Thanks bro, I make videos on what I'm most curious about.

I think it's one of the coolest things. I liked the first two versions but this one made up my mind.
I'm glad and congrats.
I just picked one up. I had to order it. They are not always easy to find.
I just bought this version of the PC carbine 3 days ago!!
Congrats bro! Have fun n be safe.
Great Review Brother!! Have a Safe and Blessed Day!!
Thanks Jay and God bless you and your loved ones.

More reasons to shop brother LOL!
@@vameathunter2771 I can quit buying guns and gun stuff anytime I want. I've done it hundreds of times. ;o)
He paid $130.00 dollars for a 33 round glock magazine!?!???!????? If that's true it had better be made out of pure gold and diamonds!!!!! 😳😳🤷🏿♂️
LOL! Bad times bro, hope things will get better.
Right, I just saw a 33 rounder at my local gun shop for $19.99
Thats a beauty. Nice review
Yup! Thanks bro.
The 3x magnifier also turns your 2moa red dot into a 6moa dot
Very true but the target got 3X bigger too. thanks for watching Tim.
I finally got to watch it
Thanks Arthur.
I got one nice shooting

Scopes or RMR glass on the PC carbine is rather silly. It’s a 9mm and the ghost ring sights it comes with are just fine.
I hear you brother but this one did not come with any sights which I think is ridiculous.
@@vameathunter2771 Wow that’s weird. But the good thing is, we can all choose what we like. That’s all that matters. 👍

@@pyaoliang Thanks for the info bro and LOL!
The newest model does not come with factory mounted sights
Just bought one last week, great shooter but burns through rounds pretty quick, lol.

Put an M-Carbo trigger spring kit in it and it will improve the trigger pull. 👊😎🇺🇸

Thanks Reaper n Merry Christmas.
9 pounds and change is why I decided on the standard version.
Good choice bro! God bless.
Hi, what brand of compensator do you use? Thanks nice tube
Yeah what he said???? If you flash it then post it... plzzz
This came with the rifle so I'm not sure.
Does the gun keep it's zero if you take down the barrel?
Yes.
The pic rail on the barrel is for the optic. It should stay with / on the barrel
All the stuff defeats the purpose of a light carbine. The sign post ahead is the Kel tec.

Can you provide links for all of the “add ons”?

$130 for a glock 30 round magazine?
Those were the tough times.
Holy shit 9 pounds. I’m build AR 9 under 5 pounds 16 inch upper
LOL! Now, 5 pounds is something I would love to have. Great job.
The Ruger pc charger is better for home defense. 6 and a half inch barrel.

Looks heavy
Yes, heavy but no recoil LOL!
As General Mathis said (paraphrasing): This country is screwed after I watched kids today struggle to put their bags in overhead compartments on the plane.
