*** Old thread revival ***

I just learned about this gun last weekend. From what I've seen and read so far, I'm really tempted to grab one.

The Lovely Girlfriend (TLG) learned about it from her instructor at the nearby range. I've long been a Ruger fan (and have looked into the PC Carbine), but with this Smith, I'm intrigued!

I have had one in 9mm for about a year. I didn't expect to like it but was really impressed with it the first time I picked up one in the gunstore. It is light enough to swing and point easily for me but has enough mass to soak up the (minimal) recoil very well. Even though it has a lot of polymer parts it feels really solid. I have mine set up with a red dot and a light for use as a house gun and a easy to transport traveling gun. I like it well enough that I bought a M&P 2.0 to pair with it.

Since I bought mine they came out with a 40 S&W version and just a few weeks ago one in 10mm.

I used to have an old-school Ruger PC40. That thing was just stupid-grin-on-my-face fun.

Have the PC Carbine as well, but the FPC gets way more rounds down range these days.

Man, I'm glad you offered that comment. I was hoping someone who had both would chime in.

I'm curious... what drives you to the FPC over the Ruger?

Seems like less parts to clean? Smaller, lighter. Wife and nephews like shooting it much more. Makes an amazing truck gun with red dot on a Scalarworks mount and an WML at 12 o'clock on the rail.
