What is the purpose of a PCC for the avg guy?

[Adhdferret]

Because I can sweep the dash with it in my truck. I can maintain firing on the target too, with little recoil.

I travel the USA quite a lot, and in places you wouldn't go...just because I get things done, and part of getting it done means I go home.

I watched cars get surrounded during the pandemic, saw how cops didn't want to engage because they wanted to go home too.

So I found something that works for me, and of course I made it mine.

Your wish has been granted…. Or could be if you’re the high bidder!

That uses S&W mags, not Ruger P89. The old model Ruger carbines are the only ones I know of that do.

PCC?

Whatinnaheck is a PCC?

Pistol Caliber Carbine?

If so, I bought a Hi-Point 9mm Carbine about 8 years ago,,,
I bought mine strictly as a low cost (ammo and carbine) super fun range toy.

I mainly shoot (and am very happy with) rimfire rifles and pistols,,,
But I wanted at least one long gun that fired a potent centerfire cartridge,,,
9mm carbines shoot the cheapest ammo out there and the Hi-Point was a true bargain.

At the time I was hanging with range buddies,,,
Who got together once a month to destroy some household appliance,,,
They all had rather high end carbines such as that Beretta Cx4 Storm, Kel Tec Sub 200, and a few others.

The satisfying thing was that my El-Cheapo Hi-Point destroyed old washing machines,,,
Just as well as any of the other carbines out there.

In actuality I haven't fired it in years,,,
I really should clean/oil it,,,
And take her dancing.

I wish Henry, Ruger and S&W had made their latest autoloaders available in 10mm, better suited for farm, ranch, truck gun

Kind of weird to say something is a "fad" when they're selling like they do.

Weren’t a lot of Winchesters first lever action and colt single action army in the same calibers like .38-40 and .44-40? Yep, a new fad..

I have a 10mm pcc. Haven’t had a chance to shoot it yet.

Mine mainly take up space in my safe and cases. The only firearm that's indisputably a PCC (vs a SMG clone) is a Ruger/Magpul Backpacker in 9mm. If I ever go for a multi-day hike in the woods, I'll have that in my backpack and my Glock 40 on my chest to balance me out

That ruger is pretty sweet too, got to shoot one in SC back in Feb.

I like the takedown

I found a kel-tec 9mm on the cheap a while back and bought it for my wife thinking she could shoot it straighter and more comfortable as she doesn't like to shoot pistols bigger than 22 -- it came with 3 single stack mags so that is a limiter but still way better than her little ruger wheel gun --- jury is still out as she has yet to shoot the thing.... also IMO odds of actually needing it for home defense is pretty slim

Is that the PF-9?
