I've owned mine for about six months and it's been fun and reliable with various brands and types of 9mm Luger ammo. I put a 3-Lug attachment on the barrel for when I want to shoot suppressed. No regrets on buying the Ruger rifle, it is good to go!

At under 50 yards, only the centers of the target get shot. The rest of the target sits idly by. And my ammo reserves keep getting depleted.
This damn thing is a plague on my wallet!

I have an old original PC-9 and it is like its pistol counterpart, the P89- boringly reliable. Not a long range rifle, but I used to have it as a trunk gun in CA. Now it just sits in the safe. But a fun little carbine.

I've been eyeballing these things. Now that I'm picking up a Glock 26, I am thinking this could be a good pair. I've only read positive things about it so far. If I do, I'll probably grab a decent red dot under $200 and go kill paper and steel plates.

GTG, based on our customers' feedback. Customers who have bought them have raved about it. It may not be pretty but it seems to work real good. Thinking about acquiring one myself.
I'm torn between the Ruger PC and the Beretta Storm. I like the looks of the Beretta over the Ruger, and I think both run about the same price??
I like that the magazines for the Beretta go into the grip as opposed to out front in the Ruger.

No, around here the CX4 9mm runs half again as much as the Ruger PC 9mm.
I have a new one and it’s a keeper! Popped in the Glock mag adapter and installed a SIG Romeo 5 red dot and have several hundred rounds through it without a hiccup. Love the take-down barrel. It’s basically a beefed up 10/22.
