very cool. I live in CT and want an AR really bad. The laws make it very difficult to avoid being a criminal on any given day. So i might give this a try. Plus 9mm is MUCH cheaper than 5.56. And thats good for me
I have my AR set up from my time working private sector overseas in the GWOT are of the mid-late 2000's. I have pretty extensive experience with tactical shooting&moving, and aside from just knocking the dust off every so often... I don't train with it at all. For most any situation in general defense training, civil unrest, etc... I'm picking up a Ruger PCC and it will be my go-to tool. If I need to get into a true battle situation (lol), I'll sling the AR. Otherwise, aside from- like I said- just knocking the dust off every so often just to keep the motor skills going... I wll be training up with the PCC from now on. Cheaper ammo, cheaper to train, more convenient... and probably just as good in all but the most dire situations. (And if it's that dire, I'm rolling over to a .308 gas gun, anyway, so... Moral of the story. WHile AR's have the cool factor, don't feel like you're missing out. If I didn't own mine for 20 yrs already, I probably wouldn't with options like a simple but effective PCC. Peace.
**good solid gun but Ruger screwed up in not upsizing it and re-chambering it for 10mm and 45acp. **Instead they went with a different design that cost almost twice as much.
Grandpa carried a Montgomery Ward 12 gauge pump. Dad carried a 30-30. I carry the Ruger PC. You didn’t leave the house unarmed when they ran things. We pay attention because of folks following the power lines headed for San Angelo. We see more now than we did 50 years ago.
Bought a used one this year from a pawn shop. It doesn't have a threaded barrel. Not sure why. I didn't even know they came with threaded barrels till after purchasing it. Shoots flawlessly.
I have a base model. I like it as it is. The breakdown feature is pretty cool, but I will probably never need to use it. Installed the Glock mag well, a red dot and a light. Done!
One of my biggest regrets is not buying a few more of these when they first came out and not a single person wanted them. A gun shop here had them on clearance for a heavy loss to just get rid of their stock because nobody had wanted these at first. I could have gotten 4 for what they are going for now. I love mine, but boy do I regret not haven bought more off that clearance shelf.
I wish we could get the Magpul stock without the takedown and tiny handguard. I have the x-22 style stock on several Rugers (22lr, 308 and 6.5 cm) and it's perfect. I see you have the Magpul butt stock, but the crom chassis is heavy. I would prefer a fully synthetic, one piece stock.
Great video! Very informative in an easy to understand way. Can I have you build me one and ship to another gun dealer in CT. I know there are rules we all must follow. TY Emmet in CT
I've been reading about guns since before Jack O'Connor got his first .270. I still don't understand this love affair with pistol calibers. They're aren't fast, flat or powerful.
Well just our opinion it’s a great rifle that you can use for 100 yards. It’s something you can defend yourself with there’s always something bigger and better out there but for the price of a nine mil you get to do a lot of stuff within that hundred yard line, not to mention there are a lot of fun add-ons for this rifle. It’s also what you’re setting it up for. If you’re looking for something long range obviously this is not the rifle You want to use. But if it’s something that you want to go out shoot and train with and possibly prepare for the zombie apocalypse, it’s a good option. I also agree with you in the last couple years we have gotten into the years of the pistol caliber carbines.
Well, I can’t speak for everybody, but I can tell you why for me. One coming back to California two years ago we really don’t have a lot of solid center fire rifles that are Modernized. Opening up Duck And Cover tactical that was the hardest thing to find a California legal modernized rifle that’s reliable that you can defend yourself with that you can go target shooting with and enjoy yourself with and customize. Here in California we have a neutered, A.R. 15. So I started looking at rifles on something that could be modernized customized and have a good time with that will also fit the needs for me in certain situations whether it’s target shooting zombie apocalypse, or having the ability to defend myself. I PC at first I wasn’t super stoked about a 9 mm or pistol caliber rifle Just like most people. Then I started breaking it down and looking at it. Lotta people have an AR platform or 556 platform the argument is I can shoot 500 yards with My 556 rifle platform, Then you look at how they’re set up and they have a Reflex sight And their zone did 100 yards with no way to truly adjusted on the fly. The area I’m in most people that I see or set up for 100 yards are in we started looking at ballistic damage for the 9 mm at 100 yards we were pretty happy with it it was acceptable to us. So we started a platform that can do all these things that we liked. We also checked out the third-party support of the PC carving which we found a couple companies are doing quite a bit of things for the pc carbine. As far as the 9 mm round goes, it’s a cheaper round that you can put down range and have a variety of ammo. Plus on top of that 9 mm is extremely readily available just like 556 and 76 2 x 39. I will say a big appeal that a lot of customers as well as myself has had has been that you’re able to take your Glock if you own a Glock your 19 or 17 and use the magazines for that so you’re not buying two different types of magazines. Back to the 9 mm round itself. It’s something that’s going to get the job done regardless of whatever you’re using the rifle for within that hundred yards.
@@ClayBlasdel44the MP5 has been a PCC for decades, used by SWAT, special forces, and civilians alike. It’s a tried, true, and proven capable plateform/caliber that gives more stability, range, and versatility than a handgun in the same chambering. I could go on, but you seem to have your mind made up. To each their own.
Ruger first came out with the PC Carbine, and later this year they will introduce the Woke Carbine. It doesn't actually shoot, it just makes a whining sound when you work the action.
The Sub2000 is a wicked rifle though. I own both and the Sub2000 is a go to backpacker gun because of how quick to deploy it is. The wife carries the Ruger PC in her bag and we both run G19s so we’re pretty well prepared in a worst case scenario!
grand or garant, carcano or carcanno, who cares why does it worry you, anyway you won’t have a semi auto if the governor of NM bill gets her passed every state will copy!.
your right its not your grand daddys ranch rifle . his ranch rifle is way more powerful and reliable especially the mini 14 .. this gun wont hold a candle for reliability or power lol !!!

Mine loves the Glock 33 happy sticks and Magpul freedom drums. I love how the backpacker stores a 21 round magazine in the stock
Underrated rifle , solid platform accurate and reliable

Talking about the awesome Ruger PC Carbine, while resting these weapons on a "Springfield Armory" table mat!
I have both, just find it a little funny😂
We have both too! We love them both!
Got an early .40 s&w one and added the magpul stock. Absolutely love it.
I absolutely love mine, they are built like tanks and it's a firearm that can be passed down to the next generations
The 9mm cartridge was used in carbines almost from the very beginning...both semi automatic and fully automatic.
Very well done. Thank you for the info and great vid!
I love my PCC. I love the M-LOK foregrip and the factory iron sights. It makes a great tent camping carbine rifle.

I just watched this entire video learned some things! lol
I bought an original PC9 when they first came out. I taped a machete to the barel. Awesome!
I got the CROM chassis with FDE moss 500 stock. Similar to yours 👍 but need to get that flat trigger
I bought mine when I lived in CA when it first came out. 1x6 scope and it's perfect.
Same here... got mine 3 weeks after it was released in SoCal
Bought a used one this year from a pawn shop. It doesn't have a threaded barrel. Not sure why. I didn't even know they came with threaded barrels till after purchasing it. Shoots flawlessly.

Same!!!
I keep the base model loaded and ready in my VW Golf at all times.
How come every gun video I've been watching only has 169 likes?
See if this helps.
I'm still debating between the Ruger PC Carbine and the Smith & Weston FCP
I wish we could get the Magpul stock without the takedown and tiny handguard. I have the x-22 style stock on several Rugers (22lr, 308 and 6.5 cm) and it's perfect. I see you have the Magpul butt stock, but the crom chassis is heavy. I would prefer a fully synthetic, one piece stock.
What ever you do dont slam magines in it will bend the extractor. Other than that its a tank.
This comment should be pinned
Can you put a full parts list for your custom build??
Great review. I concur. I trust and very much enjoy a day at the range. I chose the plain jane model. 5 stars ruger!!
What is that black rifle below the green Ruger behind you on the wall?
I’ve got the pc charger, I’d like to get the upper half (barrel assembly) to go with it.
Great video ,great weapon i love mine I'm running with gkock mags !! Also I see you have a M1A top right!! Love those as well !!!
We try to keep a mix in the shop so there is something for everyone. The M1As are great. We favor the SOCOM scout
That's super cool
I like them they work well ! AR rounds can overpenetrate which doesnt suit home defense !
Great Video buddy!
Yo!!! How have you been?!?
Good. I retired. Living on my farm@@dactacical
Ruger needs to make this in 10m..

What kind of distance are you getting with 100-150yrds ? Just picked up myself a pc9 1st model or as you said best to customize 😅
we have ours at the 100 yard line and are pretty happy with it!
Quick question does the new model number 19126 work for California or is it now in violation. Curious your take?
As it sets with pistol grip and collapsible stock it would not be Cali legal. However if it gets finned and pined it would be
Yes we need a pc 10
Nice
Did Ruger fix the ejector on these?
Ejectors yes, extractors, not so much. I highly suggest the Tandemkross eagle claw
@@dactacical thank you! You are the first person that has been able to tell me the fix!!!
We like rifle and we feel if we are selling the product we should be knowledgeable about it and do our homework
no there still junk !!!!

Also, I apologize for my chat to text. It didnt hit 100% and picked up differently and I didn’t proof read.

Don’t forget about the legislator that rifle is coming out here soon it doesn’t work and you can’t fire it
Amen! 😅
@@dactacical And it costs a fortune, too!
Has ruger discontinued their deerslayer carbine in .44mag?
It ain't mine, either.
This is legal in NY
There is a NY model available that is legal in your state
Big deal it is an other pistol round rifle. Nothing like a camp 9 or sub 2000.
The Sub2000 is a wicked rifle though. I own both and the Sub2000 is a go to backpacker gun because of how quick to deploy it is. The wife carries the Ruger PC in her bag and we both run G19s so we’re pretty well prepared in a worst case scenario!
buy ammo, reload, pay cash/Barter
It ain't mine neither!
Magpul all the way. Functionality over looks!
in California, its called the PCC (Politically Correct Carbine). ; )
Sorry. You lost me at 9mm.
FUN WORLD? Really 😪
Just when you thought the word "carbine" couldn't be mis-pronunced!
Wtf is a carbeen?
I've heard it both ways, more often the way he said it.
@@PentaRaus it's incorrect, correct pronunciation...carbine, not carbeen, that's something that makes your vehicle fart 😬
It's because education is so poor these days.

He's formerly from BOSSTUN.!
your right its not your grand daddys ranch rifle . his ranch rifle is way more powerful and reliable especially the mini 14 .. this gun wont hold a candle for reliability or power lol !!!
Pretty reliable actually
