You can also purchase, from Shop Ruger, a mag well adapter that takes the Ruger American 9mm pistol magazines. However, Ruger also includes another magazine well adapter that takes GLOCK 9mm magazines. The gun comes set up from the factory to take Ruger SR9 and Security 9 magazines. The first new model PC9 has interchangeable magazine wells. Ruger heard enough complaints with the original PC9 from consumers demanding/begging for a model that would take magazines from other gun makers, and Ruger listened.

When the PC9 is separated into two parts, and it only takes a few seconds to break it down, it will fit inside most full-sized backpacks. Still, a regular ol’ backpack works almost as well. However, you can purchase one from if you want one. I’m sad to say though, Ruger doesn’t provide one of their Take Down backpacks with the PC9. One of the first things one notices on the new PC9 is that this is a take-down little carbine, much like the Ruger 10/22 Take Down model that has been a hot-seller. I will go out on a limb here and predict that, if Ruger can keep up with supply and demand, they will sell a million PC9 carbines this year! Yet, daily customers come in asking if they have a PC9. However, the distributor has no idea when they will have the guns in stock and ready to ship. My local gun shop that I haunt has 20 of these firearms on order. Demand for PC9Īs I write this, in the middle of January, 2018, Ruger can’t begin to keep up with demand for the PC9, not even close. Used models were selling for more than a thousand dollars, believe it or not. Still, the original PC9 was a hot-seller, and after it was discontinued demand was crazy. While not necessarily a bad thing, many shooters wanted more they wanted a compact little carbine that would take magazines from other gun makers. However, the one draw back was that it only took magazines from Ruger handguns. Some years back, Ruger came out with a PC9, 9mm carbine. And this may just be the hottest selling firearm on the market right now. The all-new and improved Ruger PC9, 9mm carbine is under review.
