    Ruger makes three 10mms. I would love a 10mm conversion for my PC Carbine. I'd guess it would have to use Glock mags, though Para/RIA mags would be nice.

    Thanks for the info. Keep sharing.

    Played a little hooky this afternoon and put 75 rounds or so through it. Neat gun.
    Wiped it down, a few drops in the action, loaded and shot it.
    Like most guns, it's more accurate than I am. I didn't sight it in yet. Probably host for red dot.
    No malfunctions with Federal or Blazer brass 115 grn in Glock and Korean mags.
    Targets are 25yds rifle and 10yds pistol.
    (Please insert any and all excuses for not shooting better here)

    Excuses? All those rounds in a 2 inch circle, good shooting. :)

    Also I forget where I saw the email address. But i emailed them and got a nice little marketing package. Stickers/patches. Keep planning to see the one on the case.


    Some people have swapped out the rear barrel sight for a red dot on a mount. More accurate or something because attached to barrel. I don’t care that much. It’s a fun range toy more than anything serious. Though at 200yards I was hitting steel at Delmarva.

    Check all of the screws on yours. The screws holding in the front sight on mine backed out, so now one is missing and I just took the front sight off to save weight. Also, check the action screws as they back out and cause FTEs. The one on top of the receiver likes to back out, I'm going to have to get a torque screwdriver to get it set right.

    Ruger needs to chamber their PC in 45 ACP to replace the Marlin Camp 45 that I shouldn’t have sold. Glock 21 mags but even obsolete 1911 mags would work for me.

    Thanks!
    I just checked every screw I could find.
    The front most screw on the front sight easily took a quarter turn.

    There's another excuse for me!

    Finally got time to pull mine out and take some pics of my bag to add to my previous post. I didn't like any of the takedown bags I saw because they aren't really discreet. I wanted a normal backpack sized bag. I went with a 5.11 quad zip bag which has the needed 20" tall dimension and one large main compartment. I have the carbine and a mag pouch with two 27rd pmags secured to both sides of a 5.11 molle insert. I can easily pull the whole insert out, unstrap the parts, and assemble. Pictures:
