Ruger’s new PCC

[Glenn E. Meyer]

If you can take a 10/22, you can take a PCC, yes?

If the PCC is an EBR - it's not a cross all states gun, I think.

The problem with a cross all states gun is that if you are doing anything more than passing through certain states, you n Ed some type of permit from that state just to possess or transport any gun. So, coming up with a gun that complies is easy, but making sure you are in compliance when you have that gun is not so easy.

I am guessing that other modular mag wells can be made by anyone? (Cough cough Magpul cough) And that Beretta 92, Sig, and M&P are soon to follow? That would be amazing...

I'm also really hoping to see other magwells become available at some point, especially 92 series mags.

I'm really excited for this rifle, specifically for my Sister and my Mother.

Both struggle with the AR15's manual of arms (operating the charging handle) and are sensitive to muzzle blast. They can both run an AK acceptably well (simpler total controls) but the additional recoil, crappy sights, and the rock-and-lock magazine insertion was difficult for them, and the muzzle blast issue was still present.

They can both run the wheels off of a 10/22 and that's the current solution - but .22LR obviously leaves a lot to be desired. I found an old Ruger Deerslayer .44 Mag to cross that gap, and they both can run it well, but reliability has been an ongoing issue with it. Despite my best efforts I cannot find a load that it'll feed 100%, even FMJ's. Plus being tube fed vs detachable magazine makes them nervous when clearing it.

I almost sourced a PC9 for each at considerable expense, but I had them try a friend's old PC4 and the stock length was a real problem for them. I was shocked to see how much longer the PC4's synthetic stock was vs the Deerslayer's 10/22 esque sizing.

This PC9, if they run well, is absolutely the perfect solution for them for an HD long gun, and I'm sure my tween-aged nephew and niece will really enjoy shooting it too. If this thing runs well on cheap steel case 9mm, it'll be plinking heaven for them - ideal for planting the seed to make them both shooting enthusiasts someday!

That's an interesting idea. If Ruger would release the data to make the magwell adapter "open source", and the market responded, they'd sell even more of these.

I can’t imagine them not offering different magwells with the design they have. I think it’s a matter of when and what they offer

I am thinking along somewhat similar lines regarding this gun’s potential for home defense.

An adapter is only needed if you want to retain the factory stock. A third party - say Ramline - could offer a replacement stock, and at that point the sky is basically the limit when it comes to 9mm pistol mags. If the carbine can feed from two position SMG-style magazines...

A 3D scanner and printer could probably make something quite usable.
