It’s always funny when people say, I don’t understand who this firearm is for because they hate PCC’s . Pistol, caliber, car beans are primarily for people who don’t want to diversify ammo which I completely understand. If you’re the type of person likes to stockpile ammo but doesn’t want to break the bank. It’s much easier to invest in one caliber, then five or six different ones.
@Kesssuli6 ай бұрын
Valid point but i would still go least 3 different because one tool rarely is best possible in all situations. My pick are 22lr very obvious reasons. 9mm for handgun and maybe pcc. And lastly either 223/556 for semi-auto AR or .308 for bolt gun. Depending where you live.
@HatsuneM1ku016 ай бұрын
300 blk exist because you can literally make it from 308 and 556 casing. On top of being all around better than 9mm ballisticly. 9mm is pointless in a rifle platform these days

I have had Glock mag 9mm carbine feeding rounds into the back of the barrel, no feed ramp. It was randomly shoving the bullet down into the case and it shoved one far enough that the round did not fully chamber. it went off with a high pressure spike and was not fully chambered and blew out the bottom of the case. Because of jamming the bullet into the back of the barrel and shoving the bullet down into the case. NO feed ramp or inadequate feed ramp on a Glock mag 9mm AR is a serious problem.

Therefore I don’t see why they would release a completely different 9mm pcc into an even more saturated market (ar-style 9mm) for a more expensive price tag 😂.

Been running M&P PC CORE first gen since it came out in multi-gun and pistol meets since it came out, zero issues with it (and I'm LAZY, rather be shooting guns than cleaning them!), even when totally gunked with powder. My local club is now doing 2 gun meets, since it's indoors, long guns must be PCCs. Kinda digging the ability to use multiple types of mags, so my current kit will run it as well as my wife's (she's on a Glock platform). Wasn't aware of the recall until this vid, but once that issue is fixed, this platform has a place in the lineup in my opinion--and still far cheaper than a Sig or Kriss platform.

Just as insight into the PCC in general, it's been an idea since the 1800s to have a rifle share the ammo of your carry pistol for practicality, even though it's a bit of compromise on available range. Though .357 Mag through a carbine isn't much of a downgrade all things considered, if you're limited to modern 9mm, you're really going to be engaging out to 150 yards effective anyway. I agree with your points though. Use the best tool for the job. 👍

I get that they don’t want to offer a mag well that doesn’t take our regular M&P mags but….It looks so dumb. They could manufacture this firearm in a way where the mag well has a inner changeable mag well clip of sorts that can be changed out. They could have made it where the gun comes with three of those inner changeable mag well clips. The M&P, the Glock, and a A.R.-15 look alike as seen with the S&W Sport 22lr.
