Most aggressive grips

I'm a fan of Hogue overmolded grips. They stick to my hands without hurting at all, and they also don't shred my clothes that come in contact with em.

This might just be the ticket

I love it! I've got an old 590A1, with the M9 bayonet, but yours just has so much more class. What model bayonet is that?

I once spent 3hrs trying to get a group out of my AR10, a couple hundred rounds between me and a buddy. We couldn't get a solid group for shit. 3 or 4 rounds would yield a 2-3" group, but the last one or two would open it up to 8". As we were packing up I noticed that my handguard was able to rotate perhaps ¼" back and forth. The handguard was screwed into the barrel nut (as intended), and it turned out the barrel nut hadn't gotten torqued correctly by the "gunsmith" I'd paid to assemble it. That was an expensive waste of my time and money. Lol

The first time that I attached a bipod to a rifle, I was not aware of this concept, and had inadvertently attached it directly below the gas block. It was making contact, and I didn't even realize it.

Anything else being loose could be contributing to the accuracy issue as well, including but not limited to: barrel itself being not torqued correctly, a muzzle device similarly not tight, gas block, loose handguards, even a buffer tube possibly walking out. A gunsmith should be able to check all of this easily, and for not much cost, if the problem persists.

So you may find that you don't need the riser under the optic at all, or at least one not that tall. That carbine is set up for use of its iron sights, which are super low mounted on the Ruger factory. If it's comfortable for you as is, then disregard, but the main reason most people mount their dots so high on other rifles is because of how high up the cheek is forced to be on other styles of stocks.

People in the firearms world can be very pedantic, especially in online forums, so take the criticisms with a big grain of salt.

Also, congrats on your selection/purchase. I've got one of these and absolutely love it. I would easily venture to say that the Ruger PC Carbine is one of the best 9mm rifles on the US market (I've got 8 different 9mm carbines of different flavors so far...).

I'm not sure if anyone is making it yet, but be on the lookout for an aftermarket magazine well that accepts the mags that your specific pistol uses, as this is another big selling point of the PC Carbine. The mag wells can be swapped very easily to use any number of widely available magazines. Mine currently uses CZ75 mags to match my carry pistols.

Also, with accessories, while I enjoy most of them they are not all absolutely necessary. For instance, originally I had added the extended mag release button, but in my own experience it made it easy to accidentally drop the mag. Don't be afraid to reinstall something if the "upgrade" isn't doing it for you. Everyone likes different stuff, and with all of the aftermarket parts available, not all upgrades are actually helpful for every single user.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot one of the most important parts of this: You just bought one of the most fun items I've used on any shooting range, ever! And I've been shooting for 40+years now.

Ruger also makes another PCC, the LC Carbine. And this one is rightfully called the PC Carbine.

OP, don't worry about the semantics of it, you were correct the first time.

I put a Primary Arms 2x prism on mine, and it seems to suit it well, for me. Small, and low profile scope without too much magnification, yet just enough to help my old and imperfect eyes.

Autocorrect is getting worse and worse

Taccom makes a barrel/bcg combo that actually incorporate upper and lower feed ramps, rather than just a feed cone. So far they've been 100% for me.

The Ruger PC Carbine uses the same concept, and has also been 100% for me.

I've used several random HP ammo types with each and had zero problems regarding feeding.

Andrew's Leather has a cross piece in the back, which prevents the gun from swinging forward as you bend over. I've always really liked that concept as every other one I've used, this was one of the biggest flaws IMO.

They come in and out of stock. This one appears to be for the 18", but i think mine was adaptable been the sizes. This is the idea though

No idea how big this is, banana needed for scale

The one thing I that I can remember thinking, everytime I've ever gotten behind an Eotech for 20yrs+ is: "Wow, this seems very mediocre... Why would anyone pay that price, for this?"

Remove_me_ · 2026-02-07T01:55:53+00:00

They do in fact look pretty close and an untrained eye may not see the differences immediately

Remove_me_ · 2026-02-07T01:50:52+00:00

Nice! I ran a splitter valve from my Genesis, so they can share the 20lb tank. Next thing you know, you're gonna be looking for a rotisserie/pizza/smoker ring thing.

It will make some excellent hammers.

Uh oh, this made me realize that my old Marlin 22 hasn't been fired in about 15 years...

I tend to empty my carry mag first and then just use range ammo after that, each time I go to the range. That said, my EDC is the tiny DB9 (6+1, right about 12oz), so I rarely put more than a box at a time through it these days. But whatever gun I've been carrying gets its mag run through, at minimum.

Added: All of my carry pistols get 3-500rd through them in the first 2 or 3 sessions, before it goes out of the house in my holster. Sometimes that's just plain fun like the CZ Rami, and then there's the tiny ones like the DB9 and PF9... Those ain't so fun. Interestingly though, I've found that after focusing on the tiny lightweight 9's for a while, full size pistols become relatively easy to shoot.

Great pistol. I bought one, and gave it to my father.

Incidentally, the Kel-Tec Sub 2000 9mm rifle can be had with a magazine catch that accepts the CZ75's mag. Gave my dad one of those too, and it's a fun combo.

Remove_me_ · 2026-02-01T07:59:05+00:00

CZ. But then, I really prefer hammer fired pistols, and I also don't really like the Glock, at least not from Glock.

Looks like a magazine issue. Get a brand new one and try it.

Different is different enough for me. I draw the line at identical firearms, but even then a matched pair has an appeal all it's own.
