    Any updates in regards to the barrel nut coming loose after shooting several hundred rounds? I'm considering picking one of these up.

    Always between two major rivers that begin with the letter "M."
    I gotta admit... I have been waffling over getting either a Ruger PCC or a Beretta CX4 in 9mm. Both have (to me) semi-serious design flaws, both have (again, to me) irritating shooting characteristics, and both have (yet again, etc)
    iron sights that don't really work for me. "Nonetheless," he said.

    Locally, the Rugers seem to still need checking for tightness due to the takedown feature. Tightening everything up is no big deal until the day it somehow becomes a big deal... and that is what still keeps me from getting one.

    I have both and have admittedly very few rounds through either, BUT if the Ruger could take B92 mags AND the takedown feature could be eliminated or at least made a non-issue it would be my preference. The aftermarket for the Ruger is larger and the 2 things I'd like changed are the only 2 I haven't yet seen addressed by the aftermarket (unless @zaitcev has the 92 adapter worked out?).

    The Ruger with the free-float forend option is definitely the more "modular" of the two.

    The iron sights both suck for me in different ways, but I'd red dot either one, so that's a wash.

    I now have more 92 or PX4 magazines than Glock magazines, so advantage to me: CX4.

    The Beretta seems to have a slight edge as far as being "trouble-free" for people I know and one range that has rented both. This is admittedly a smaller sample of Berettas, but that same smaller sample goes farther back in time.

    It is a dilemma.

    I put a witness mark on mine when I bought it...after a couple hundred rounds it loosened one click. I returned it to "zero" and have put another 300 - 400 round through it since with no more movement.

    The Beretta 92 adapter worked out great, but I would recommend against buying a Ruger PCC with the sole intent of using it with my adapter. Although I use a better than commonly used material, there's no way for the adapter to last longer than 2,000 rounds. I only use mine for casually shooting in Steel Challenge and plinking.

    I was smirking to myself while reading these reports on forums, but a month ago one of mine slipped two clicks too. I cannot remember well, but hopefully I didn't make any arrogant posts implying that people cannot read manuals. Granted, I use that gun for testing adapters, so I took it down more than I shot it: because I made 200 adapters, I took it down more than 200 times. Nonetheless, the point being, the click wheel is not the guarantee that I thought it were, even when it's in ideal condition. OTL

    Thanks, I either missed the update they were working or I was thinking of an adapter for a different magazine. I already own the Ruger and a couple of adapters would probably last me years.

    Someone finally offers a barrel that retains the takedown function.
