About the Ruger PC Carbine
The Ruger PC Carbine is a 9mm semi-automatic carbine-caliber carbine featuring a dead-blow action for reduced felt recoil, interchangeable magazine wells accepting either Ruger Security-9 or Glock magazines, and easy takedown capability for transport and storage. It features a cold hammer-forged, fluted, threaded barrel.
The PC Carbine revived Ruger's legacy in pistol-caliber carbines, succeeding the discontinued Police Carbine that was a favorite of law enforcement agencies in the 1990s.
