I just picked up a Ruger PC Charger 9mm pistol. I added a SIG Folding brace, a 1/2" riser and a SeeAll site (I wanted something that didn't require batteries.
What is bewildering me is how do I fold the stock. I appreciate it being tight, but I can't budge it. See pictures below.
UPDATE: I soaked the hinge overnight and it now folds easy. New pictures below.

Interesting two tone.
Found the following directions:
1. Hold the pistol diagonally across your chest with the grip in your right hand (hammer fist style), barrel pointing towards your right shoulder. 2. Place the four fingers of your left hand under the stock, left thumb on top of the picatinny rail. 3. Pull up on the stock arm with your left fingers to unlock and pivot open or closed.

I saw that but it didn't seem to make that much sense to me. I'm going to soak it in penetrating oil and give it a try in the morning.

Make sure you are pulling up at the base that connects to the gun before you try and fold it. It is locked open and you have to unlock it before it will fold over. Once it is unlocked it just swings freely.

Sweet little setup!
The brace has a VERY strong spring in it. Basically pull up / push down on it as close the the attachment point as you can get your meathooks, and fold to the side. Your third closeup picture shows the camming surface that locks the two together.

Thanks. After soaking in penetrating oil overnight I was able to fold it.

Have you had a chance to shoot it yet Rolan? If so, what's your opinion on it?
Thanks

I was going to comment on how ugly these 'pistols' are... (I'm a Ruger fan by the way)
but then I looked at the first picture of the gun and am more interested in the pressure gage....
