Why did I want THIS gun? Part 15 Ruger PC Carbine 9mm with Glock Magwell

I bought the Ruger model 19122 and has been great so far. I’ve been using Magpul 27 round Glock style magazines and put in upgrades from MCARBO and Tandemkross to make it even better. It has some weight to it but it is in the middle because of the takedown joint and the bolt block design. Put on a Holosun AEMS and have not bothered with backup sights.

I have an old Hi-Point, the first Gen with the Planet of the Apes stock and it works great. I just picked up this Ruger because of the ability to use Glock mags, and I love it. I appreciate the extra weight as there is no muzzle jump. The Hi-Point did get rough on the cheek after firing lots of rounds. I'm a righty but will put the charging handle on the left side. The sights are excellent on this Ruger. I may put a small laser on the lower rail.

I too wonder why you bought the PLASTIC STOCK version. I have the CHASSIS version of the 9 mm RUGER PC. I have added almost every MAGPUL, MCARBO, TANDEMCOSS and TACCOM part made for this carbine to make it more reliable and more ergonomic. I added a HOLOSUN AEMS circle/dot sight, likely the best PCC sight available. Now I'm ready for Steel Challenge events.

Mine has been pretty much 100% reliable out of the box. Not sure how much better it can be, unless I start breaking stuff…

@@crankygunreviews 1.) The factory extractor will wear after 1,000 rounds. MCARBO and TANDEMKROSS make tool steel machined extractors and harder bolt pins. 2.)

Thanks!

[@spacebear49]

Put the Magpul backpacker stock on mine. What a difference! A fair bit lighter. Has space in the rear of the stock for a mag and a storage cubby in the grip to store tools, etc. Also has a higher comb / cheek rest you can chang out to get better support with red dot use. And the two peices lock together when taken down.

[@jeffm6273]

FYI, if you use the short mount on the Romeo5 it will co-witness with the iron sights, that's how I have mine set up. By the way, I was wrong! The Romeo5 won't co-witness on the PCC, I have my PC Charger (no iron sights) set up with a low mount but my PCC has the high mount like yours.

[@crankygunreviews]

My mount is machined in

[@fyremanjef]

Just like the 10/22 takedown, the pc carbine magpul backpacker has a storage compartment in the stock that holds a Glock 21 rd mag. It’s a heavy, but good pack pack gun that uses the same mags as my pistol, even the 33 round happy sticks.

[@crankygunreviews]

I have been debating getting the Magpul stock for my PC carbine as well, but I’m torn because I do like the factory stock

[@michaelh3992]

You were surprised that the HiPoint sucked? I think the KelTec has it's place for maybe a truck gun or light backpack gun, but the problem is that you can't mount an optic on it and fold it. Separately if you ditch the riser on the Romeo 5 your sight alignment when you have a good cheek weld will work much better because the stock is lower than an AR extension tube based stock which is straight back from the receiver. If you are really picky you can get an aftermarket part that replaces the rear sight to drop your red-dot on to avoid losing zero when you take it down. Magazine interchangability is exactly why I got this, and I opted in half-way into the first year they were released...I knew I wanted it the minute I saw a review on it....because I knew it'd probably be as reliable as the 10/22 takedown that it's more or less based on.

[@crankygunreviews]

I’m not surprised the Hi-point sucked, just surprised how poor the quality and accuracy was. It was reliable though. I’m ok with the riser height on this, I like having the irons completely clear under it, and bore height does not affect accuracy on this- I can shoot a ragged hole at 50+ yards, it’s by far the most accurate 9mm carbine I’ve shot. I agree with you on the Kel Tec, it has its place, but not in my safe…

@@crankygunreviews I was an early adopter. I kinda went crazy and got some 3rd party one after trying to get Ruger to send me another. Then I went insane and spent about $500 buying every flavor of 9mm that existed in my town trying to determine if it had a favorite. Most guns have a favorite and maybe one or two brands or shapes it refuses to eat. Not this one. It loves everything! I determines that the sad fact of this gun is simple.

I have one, also equipped with the Sig Romeo5 red dot, but mine is finished in a digital camo finish, which is my only complaint. The camo print finish scratches very easily, even ejecting brass has scratched up the area around the ejection port. But, that really doesn’t matter ……. if you had a flawless shovel, it would appear that you never “dig” with it, right? Everything else considered, it’s excellent in every way…. The Glock mags have proven far more reliable than the Ruger mags, and like a Glock, that Ruger eats any type of ammo! I train with it every week, and like my Glocks, I will put lots of miles on it……. I dig it!

[@Kornholeeoo]

Man….we’ve all been there. Buy a gun for the cool factor and then find out we don’t like it. I was fortunate enough of to be fooled by the KelTec. I learned years ago about them by holding one of their guns. Man! What crap! And again years later I held the Sub 2000 and I was impressed…at how crappy it was too! A friend had a Hi Point I got to shoot it. Other than it weighing about a hundred pounds, it shot ok but I pulled a muscle toting it around!😂😂 I have a 10/22 take down and it’s great. Almost bought the Ruger here but went with the S&W FPC. I still may get a Ruger but for now, I need to let the new wear off from the FPC. Thanks for the video!

[@megatrends]

Nice video that covers most important features. I have had one of these for a year and a half or so and shoot it often. I had seen a few videos before buying mine about issues one can expect with this rifle which includes from slamming magazines (AR owners) into the magwell it bends the ejector prong thingie on top of the magwell upward sop it starts to scrape the bolt when the rifle is fired causing a slowing of the bolt which causes failure to eject and failure to feed. Thankfully the spare magwell ejector fits the other and also Ruger does sell complete magwel ls on their website should that happen to you. The other issues I saw in other KZbin videos was the extractor wears too quickly causing a failure to eject as the steel is not a hardened steel but rather a more economical stamped steel part. I bought an after market made in A2 hardened tool steel as well as hardened aftermarket bolt head pins which also wear and the extractor pin as well. I also got the buffer pad after market part as the one in the rifle behind the bolt wears. The amount of wear before part wear rears itself from the vids I watched was about 1500-3000 rounds. Some may say that is a normal in many forearms so I'm not sure it is a knock on quality. The rifle has been perfect with no malfunctions except for a Korean made 33 round Glock funstick copy which even after replacing the mag spring still caused problems. I bought two pro-Mag 17 round magazines and those run reliably in case you need extra mags and are afraid of Pro-Mag, they work in this one. Sorry for the long comment ....

[@crankygunreviews]

Thanks for a heads up on potential issues. I think MCARBO and maybe Tandemkross make some upgraded parts for these, just haven’t decided to buy any yet

[@johnsmith-oh9is]

I'd recommend getting the backpacker from Magpul for this. Awesome gun.

[@Broken_Arrow58]

If I hadn't decided against buying a pistol-caliber long gun, this is the one I'd get and would configure it just as you have.

[@crankygunreviews]

It’s pretty good, you should reconsider. And ironically, I can shoot way more accurately out to 50,75,100 yds with this than either a Kel Tec Sub2000 or a Hi-point 995TS even with open sights. Maybe the rifling is better/tighter but with the same ammo, open sights offhand, with both the keltec and Hi-point, at 50 yards my groups were huge and at 100 yards, I was hard pressed to hit the target even with a huge holdover. The Ruger is wayyyy better.

Not really a huge deal, but it just annoys me . I reload. Once the brass is cleaned it acts just like any other brass to reload. I have somewhere in the neighborhood of 2k rounds through mine and no hiccups . On a 10 scale I give it a 9.9. Nothing is perfect. One other thing, it is so fun to shoot you go through a LOT of ammo in a hurry. 😅

[@crankygunreviews]

I would not count on this to be my defensive gun past about 75 yards. You can hit your targets beyond that, but the power and effectiveness of a 9mm at those distances is low. It is a great rifle though, great for close quarters, defense, and super reliable.

[@dinubunica]

@@crankygunreviews a 22lr does this at 300 yards. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3XdfYR9q5Kqa68 A 9mm should do more... More then enough. A menace at more then 200m/yrds, I run away and hide (behind cover). I don't need to fight at those distances for defence.

@@dinubunica part of the problem is bullet drop/deviation though. At 100 yds a 9mm drops about a foot. It’s is a lot more past that. You’re literally lobbing bullets in. So the likelihood of hitting your target at all drops considerably the further out you go, not to mention lower power at those distances. All I’m saying is it’s not the best choice for long range shooting. Especially if your life depends on it.

Your Ruger is Way Better than a Sub 2000 either Gen. 1 or 2.... Plastic feed ramps and sheetrock screw's on a thin pipe.. be well.

[@crankygunreviews]

Yeah, unfortunately I didn’t realize that till after I bought and shot it.

[@MegaBait1616]

@@crankygunreviews , I fell for the same.. neither Gen. is good.. Still have a Gen.1 but sold the new one after the screws got loose.. red dot moved..

[@crankygunreviews]

@@MegaBait1616 the second Gen was a lot better, but the cool factor puts blinders on the actual crumminess of it. Don’t get me wrong, it probably is the best true backpack 9mm carbine, but I’ll take a PC Carbine over smallest / foldiest anyday.

[@MegaBait1616]

@@crankygunreviews , Yeah they upgraded front sight and stock.. lil better and has a Pic. Rail still not as good as a Ruger.... The guts, feed ramp, screws and lousy cheek weld is the same.. Be Well and Keep America Great 👍..

[@FrettinTheBlues]

I have the American Flag version and I love it! Great gun!

[@crankygunreviews]

Really great gun!

WARNING !! THE RUGER PC CARBINE CAN BE HABBIT FORMING. !! SHOOTER CAN GET ADDICTED AND CAUSE SERIOUS AMMO SHORTAGES !! HAHA

[@crankygunreviews]

Very true!

[@DeanRazorsArmory]

YOU BOUGHT A HIGH POINT! HIGH POINT is CRAP they are worthless!! NEVER EVER buy a high point, it does not make what you do to it is still crap. If you did a turd in gold it is still a turd, high point is a turd!

[@crankygunreviews]

They’re reliable, and to some that is all that matters

[@DeanRazorsArmory]

@Cranky Gun Reviews I have never heard of one being reliable! I have Never own one and never will. Want something reliable than get a Smith&Wesson ,H&K ,Springfield Armory, FN, Kel-tech, but never a high point!

[@crankygunreviews]

@@DeanRazorsArmory you’re not looking that hard then- look at TFB torture tests on High Point, demo ranch torture tests. And from my personal experience, I put over 500 rounds through mine with no hiccups. A whole bucket-o-bullets in one trip, a couple hundred steel cases, hollowpoint… I was happy with the reliability, but past 30 or 40 yards the accuracy wasnt that good, I hated the springy buttpad, the front sight needed to be drifted way over so the rear sight was centered, and I hated that the firing pin was the ejector. But my 995TS was 100% reliable.

Great video!

[@crankygunreviews]

Thanks!

HI 👉 POINT IS JUNK ONLY A OPINION.

[@crankygunreviews]

The quality isn’t great, but they’re reliable. “Junk” is relative. If it works, it’s not really junk, but they’re are varying degrees of quality

[@johnkoenig496]

WHY don't you already have a Glock 17 or 19 ?

[@crankygunreviews]

Because in my state you can only buy pre-bans and they’re usualy beat to crap and super expensive. Also they’re ugly. But I probably will get a Glock 17 someday
