New Ruger 9mm Carbine

[glockfan]

We had nothing but issues with the JR carbine. We had to keep forward pressure on the mag to get the JR to feed. Just not for me. For me its the Ruger.

many owners of the .45 acp got nothing but troubles ,something to see with the feed ramp instilling
ftf's...while i've never heard anything about their .40 and nine

psa never has there 45acp ar15s anymore either. I'm sure its because of reliability problems. probably tough to get that fat short bullet to feed.

I got out this morning and shot the PC Carbine. I like it.
Handles well, decent trigger, nice balance, and accurate.
GECO 124 grain shot the best of the 3 brands I had on
hand. 1.25" at 50 yards and 2.8" at 100 yards for 5 shots
on sandbags. I suspect with handload tinkering it will
do a bit better. We'll see. Fired about 150 rounds.
Zero malfunctions of any kind. Shot from 3 magazines,
2 Ruger mags and 1 ProMag clone.

I have to agree with Butler and Mosher. It does have limited
muzzle rise on the shot. I ran it some with a Kaw Valley Precision
linear compensator. I like it. Moderates the little jump that there
is and also quiets the gun some from the shooter's position.

The attachments failed to load for me. I assume they were pictures.

Not sure what happened there. I reloaded them again
and it looks like there are there now.

Thanks for the heads up !

p.s. I labeled the targets incorrectly when I marked them.
I thought the GECO was 115 gr but it is actually 124 gr.

I like mine. I’m looking forward to putting together a 9mm can to use with it.

The waiting list of people that want one of these is breathtakingly long. The local consensus is you will not see any on the shelf this year. I got the call last week, was busy so I told my buddy who was just below me on the list to grab it. He's really pleased with the reliability aspect/glock mag interchangeability, less so with accuracy, 4-5 inches at 50 yards. He currently using a Aimpoint and is considering conventional scope in it's place. Should be a good one to stick in the Jeep.

Every shop in my area has had a few on the rack for the last two months. Could be because they want almost 600-700 bucks. I will wait for mine at 444 out the door.

Looks kind of like a chubby Savage A-17.

Is that tongue in cheek high praise? Haha I see it- they both ugly to me. Unless the Ruger is super accurate I'd go AR platform (or a Hi-point)!

My lgs has one and dissembled it to satisfy everybody's curiosity. Though simple, the design is well thought out. Rifling is clean. Trigger pull is ok. I saw no manufacturing defects. Yes, it's a tad ugly. I want one. It should be a plinker's delight but could also serve as a home defense weapon.

Here in NYS I can not have your top picks. I have to go with the Ruger. The one I tried was 4" groups off hand with a red dot at 50yrds. Good enough for me.

OUCH! My LGS is getting 489.00 I don't want one bad enough to shell out 6-700 bucks.

If my local gun shop had one at 489.00 I would of grabbed it two months ago when I ordered mine from Brownells. They have mine on back order for 444.42 or something like that. A fast 15 or 20 bucks for the nics check at my dealer and its done. That is if they ever get a stock of them to ship to me.

I got back from the range session with mine. Inch and a half to two inche groups with @ borrowed Truglow with a 3 minute dot. After shooting for zero 9 clay pigeons were decimated in short time. Too much fun. I was using a 125 gr RN with 3.2 gr of Clays with mixed brass and using a 32 round mag. I paid $500 OTD.

[Groo]

Groo here
My BIL has one and I got a good look.
Someone will make barrels for this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I believe Ruger made this one convertible,
Replaceable bolt face , quick change barrel, changes mag types.
Looks like the ejection port is big enough for 45acp?
Now if I could get 357sig and 10mm?????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????

[Jeff Michel]

The dam must of broke. My LGS just got 18 of them in this morning.

Is North central Ohio the Findlay area? I am in western Ottawa co. and don`t want to drive much more than that.

[Jeff Michel]

I live south of Sandusky, Findlay is about an hour west of me. The gun shop I was referring to is located in Shelby, basically between Bucyrus and Ashland. It would be a pretty good drive for you. If your interested, PM and I'll give you the name and phone number of the place.

[Jeff Michel]

Well, I picked one up yesterday. Ran a couple clips through it (Lee 105 grain/3.5 gr. Clays) Worked flawlessly, good sights, decent balance, put all the shots into the size of my hand at thirty yards. Any regret at selling my Camp 9 is rapidly fading..........

[Outer Rondacker]

Well I made a call to Brownells yesterday to find out when My PC9 will be shipped. They told me middle of July. That is a far cry from the first week of April. Oh well what can you do.
