Takes glock 9mm mags? Last round bolt hold open ? Takedown? I’ll get three if they work

Oh hell. I may have to get one depending on the price.

One in 9mm would make a nice companion to my wife's Glock 19.
One in 10mm would make a nice companion to my Glock 20. I'd hunt deer with that here on the property, no problem.
I was into 10mm Auto before it sold out and went mainstream, but these days I'm here for the revolver and epidemiology information.
Well, Ruger appears to be heading back to the future with a pistol caliber carbine. According to the website it will work with mags from the Security 9.
I'm sure the new carbine is fun to shoot but ultimately seems pretty pointless. Hasn't the Beretta Storm, Marlin Camp Carbine, Ruger PC9/40 already been done? Yeah the magazine interface is kind of neat but that's about it.
Talk about yawn....

That's interesting to me for several reasons:
1. The original guns were promoted for police in part to avoid the politically incorrect AR platforms. When pointed out that the rounds would not be so useful in the LA Bank Robbery shootout, one gun rag writer said - that at least you could more accurate leg shots.
2. With IDPA having a pistol caliber divison, that might be a nice gun for that and not that expensive as compared to some AR platforms.
3. It might be a nice, go every state long arm that doesn't light up the states with AWBs. So if you moved to NY for instance, and wanted to shoot IDPA, you would have to wait and hope you could get a pistol permit - but it takes a long time. Now, you could have an inexpensive pistol caliber carbine to compete in regular matches until approved. Also, a good HD gun.
So if it isn't too expensive, I'd be interested - if I could lift a rifle again (rant about car accidents and seeing the surgeons next year - haha - next week).
^^^Given advertised compatibility with Glock magazines, I’m not personally yawning, and the marketplace may be caffeinated too. How long have we been waiting for a "glock carbine" that’s at least good enough not to be bad? And it’s a takedown...
I’ve certainly spent more money on dumber shit in my day; I’d throw one in the safe at anticipated street prices, as part of my inexorable caliber consolidating.

Interesting. I saw this on Recoil's RSS feed, but the page didn't load when I tried to click through. Accepting Glock mags will really increase the appeal, as will the fact that this is a take down model. However, in 9mm I don't see this doing anything that the Beretta CX4 doesn't generally do.

I probably ought to have one of these.
edit to add: It looks like this might have an adjustable comb and stock length. That would be great. The American series of Ruger rifles have those.
