Ruger PC-9?

[Tommy]

I hope you guys don't mind if I post a non-boating question. Since so many of you are firearms sporstmen, I was wondering if you were familiar with the Ruger PC-9 Carbine? It uses the same clip and ammo as my P-89 9mm handgun, and would be a convenient shoulder arm to have. Some articles refer to them as being in the family of "ranch rifles" since they are fairly compact. Ruger discontinued production after a few years due to low demand, but they come up occasionally on the used market. Anyone have experience with this model or know of one for sale?

Thanks,

Tommy

Thanks Bruce,

Keep your eyes open for me, and let me know if you come across one for sale.

Uncle Vic,

Thanks for the heads-up on that Ruger Carbine. Since I want to be able to use the same ammo and clips as my 9mm Ruger pistol, I'll pass on the 44 version, but keep your eyes out for the 9mm version. Thanks again,

Tommy

Have hunted wild boar with the Ruger carbine in .44 Magnum. Great little gun, and reliable. Oh, and the .44M has all the stopping power you should ever need
