    Neat carbines, aren’t they? Haven’t shot mine yet, but accumulated enough of the pricey 17 round Ruger SR9 mags (5 of the twin packs from Grabagun)... for now.
    When the takedown carry case at ShopRuger went on sale last month ($90 down to $63) I ordered one on the 26th. However, it has been on backorder since - probably because all us idjits are snapping the guns up like crazy. GaG has a $599.99 price for the carbine currently, but they just went out of stock again over the weekend. Have seen the gun priced at $700-$800 elsewhere. Nuts.

    It really is neat, handy little size and a lot of nice features. I got the bag for it, not sure it will ever see the bag again but maybe so.

    Looking around here they were all running 700 and up considerable higher. I gave him 700 but then gave his some primers and a couple mags for his new Hi Power so he gave me a hundred back so I felt like I did alright. It was kind of love at first sight and price went right out the window.

    I'm not really a tupperware stock kind of guy but it seems ok in this application.

    You did good to even find one. Ruger sells the bag for $90 regular price and the gun looks to be averaging $700 most places.
    You gonna put a can on it, or is that legal up there?

    The can is legal if you want to pay the 200 bucks stamp and wait 1 to 2 years for the approval. I'd love to put one on it. Course the can itself is probably more than the gun.
    The bag this one came with doesn't say Ruger on it but looks like it's made for it.
    I'm completely pleased with the whole package. Haven't got to shoot it yet either, might have to just pop off a few in the back yard. Technically it's legal here but too many neighbors now days. Someone's panties would get in a wad if I shot much.

    Yeah, getting a can is quite an expensive hassle. In some European countries they are considered an essential accessory and as easy to acquire as a holster or sling.
    The carry cases for the PC Carbine are made for Ruger by Regal. Mine looks the same as the one in the Regal catalog (Which doesn’t have the Ruger logo). The Ruger logo on mine is just a patch that is stuck on with velcro.
    The case will come in handy when taking the rig out to shoot at the family property or a range, but at home the carbine will reside openly next to my nightstand with the SR9 and some loaded mags in the drawer.

    My case says Tuff Force on it so probably just a knock off. The PC hasn't been in the case since I got it anyhow. Still out in the open during the bonding sequence. I never keep guns in cases ever. Only for transportation, that sort of thing.

    I threw what I considered a low ball offer on a Ruger Mk IV blued 22/45. Just browsing and thought what the hell never thinking in a million years I'd win. Well everybody must be shopping for those nasty AR's and I won. I like the feel and weight of the 22/45 and kind of hankered for one for a spell. Wasn't even looking specific, just browsing. I guess where I sucked at luck in politics, I did alright on guns.

    Brand new 5.5" barrel. Was actually hoping I'd get outbid so I didn't have another one to explain to the missus but now I'm kind of tickled. Another fun one to play with as long as the ammo holds out.

    Glad to hear that my man. I too have looked and found better deals on GB than some of the usual sites that I buy from lately. If it wasn’t for a recent business venture, I’d be trying to buy right now. Unfortunately, I’ve been doing more selling than buying lately. Not good, unless it all works out, I can produce more dough, and not only replace, but upgrade my losses. Congrats on a good deal/nice gun!!!
