    I think they are fun to own and well worth having. They are low recoil, fairly quiet, 9mm is relatively cheap to shoot, the glock mags are easy to come by. I don't know why everyone doesn't have one.

    Tacom 3g is offering a non takedown barrel for the ruger pcc

    Not sure if this was already posted. Looking at tacom3g website and it appears they are offering a lightweight fixed barrel and trunnion to replace the factory barrel. It eliminates the takedown feature.

    Why is this a benefit over the takedown barrel?

    what I gathered in re-reading the thread, and asking a few questions up-thread, is that there are guys in ban states looking for a "legal" PCC who don't need or want the takedown (and therefore don't want the potential downsides of same) and so eliminating the takedown might be of interest to them. No point having potential failure points for a feature you don't want/need.

    Because Ruger's mounting method tends to loosen up even when properly secured. Some folks have had properly secured barrel nuts loosen up in as little as 100 rounds.

    The main benefit of Taccom barrels is the reduced weight up front, which provides a meaningful advantage in some competitions. And yes, I know people who take Steel Challenge that seriously.

    That.

    Also, the Ruger is surprisingly heavy. As a house gun for a 5'4", recoil-averse person, the weight off the front might help.

    ETA: This is interesting.

    Aside of Dallan's https://olyoak.com/, there's also http://boltandburl.com/ ran by Sterling and Co. A tell-it-all book might be published one day that sheds light on their relationship -- if they become very successful selling these wooden stocks.
