    Thumbs up

    This may be the first gun in a long time that I have absolutely no practical use for, but want anyways. This would be a sweet backpacking rig with an Omega 9k, H-1 and a lightweight sling

    Knowing Ruger, there will probably be 2-3 more versions added to the lineup in the next year or two with different stock options, finishes, and sight configurations. It would be cool to see an SR22-like chassis for it.

    People whined for years when they killed off the camp carbines in the late '90s... well it's back, and better.

    Love them or Hate them. You got to give Ruger props for giving the end user the option of using Glock mags.

    Now the question will be how well it works. The original PCC carbines they made were, at least according to the guys who I knew who shot them, rather unreliable. One calling it a jam-a-matic. That said, if the work, street price in the sub 500 range, might give Keltec fits.

    I like it, but will only buy one if they do a .45... and allow me to put Glock 30 magazines in it.

    If this remotely takes off, I see other models and calibers.

    What would be awesome is a SBR with integral suppressor from the factory, one stamp, compact, lightweight and I would hope reliable that don't scare the sheeple.

    Offered in your flavor of calibers, 9X19mm, .40S&W, .45ACP.

    If they thought ahead really good, the front end (barrel/forearm) and bolt would be the only thing that needs to be changed for caliber swap, with kits to go from one caliber to another at a reasonable price.

    I like it, my guns don't have to look pretty or tactical, just work when needed for the job at hand.

    I like it, not sure I’d pay over $500 for a Ruger though.

    I'll go ya one better: 357SIG. Out of a carbine length barrel you're looking at ~ 1700fps with hot factory loads like Underwood. I can live with that, as the smaller diameter would lend itself to a "flatter" trajectory than 10mm ("flatter" being rather subjective as it is still a pistol round).

    I'd still rather have a 357SIG AR built as a pistol but they are hard to come by. Like really hard to come by.

    USPSA PCC entry gets cheaper.

    Right now the hot ticket for a USPSA Pistol Caliber Carbine is the CZ scorpian and for the well heeled a Sig MPX with dedicated 9mm AR's somewhere in between. If it is reliable you'll see them used, especially if you can get an aftermarket 10/22 trigger pack to work in this. Guys are running a red dot and laser with a large mag. They never have to change mags (unless the stage requires it) and generally just pissing off all the pistol shooters, but for now it is legal with its own class.3
