1:02 - I have been seriously debating getting an AR-style stock for mine, but I'm far too hesitant to move away from the rifle stock that I really like and am already comfortable with. I think you sum it up pretty well here.
The Ruger is different and now very modular due to the really cool accessories available out there for it!! Look at this one, the only thing stock is the receiver and Barrel.
I bought RUGER PC chassis ("tactical") carbine with the pistol grip. since then I've added every M*CARBO part, many MAGPUL components, a TACCOMN machined Delrin flared mag well and a HOLOSUN AEMS circle/dot sight. Now it is ready for Steel Challenge competition. (Wish I was too.)
@@yrsued Look up PCSH-41 on TH-cam. Turns out with a bit of scuff work and some minor chisel work, you can mate an old ppsh-41 stock to a standard PC carbine stock pretty easily, and the end product looks very good, even better than a wood stock on this chassis.
I actually like the way it looks from the factory. I will add a flashlight on mine. I also might consider buying a Magpull backpacker to switch it up sometimes. 😜
Thank you! I'd like to put a good scope on my Ruger PC 9. I'm 75, and my eyes need help for long-distance target shooting and home defense (100 yards). Also, would you kindly let me know how much lighter the gun is after putting the crumb Chase on?
Yes we both are in agreement plinking a lot easier to do with a 9mm rifle then going hunting in which I would never do. So again Thank You for your informative youtube videos
In all honesty, I never actually weighed the original stock and the Chassis with the Magpul stock, but this combination is actually heavier than the original stock.
@@electropentatonic I don't consider the weight a problem, I actually welcome the weight myself!! I will weigh them against each other to tell you the real weight difference.
I agree with you 100% but I just wanted to let anyone making a comment know that a gentleman went from 50 feet all the way to 200 feet plinking targets. I do want to Thank You for all your insights on the Ruger PC9 it help me a lot so I purchased one.
To attach the Receiver to the Chassis?? I honestly don't remember, I got the info from the owner at CROM. You can give them a call and they will help!!
I mean Ruger makes a pretty great budget AR if a .556 is up your alley, but if you're dead set on a PCC I think those calibers may be a bit too niche for Ruger's arsenal. Aftermarket rabbit holes are pretty insane tho, who knows what you can do
Looks good Yamil!! I like the way you did that. I’d never recommend using hardware store screws/springs/bolts on firearms. The gun looks better than it did stock though! I’d have gone black with the charging handle though myself. Want to see you shoot it next brotha!
So.. basically.. instead of buying a PC Carbine from Ruger.. I could have bought all the different parts from all the different people's.. and created one. Between these guys, Tantrum Kross, and MCarbo.. I'm sure I'm forgetting one.. lol
You can't get a Receiver from any of them, so. There's a whole lot of aftermarket makers, NONE of them make receivers, not unless they want to get sued out of existence!!
The brake is installed incorrectly..... correct me if I'm wrong, is it designed to be mounted with the ports to be facing 12 and 6 o'clock????.... it basically increases the recoil by blowing the blast up and down.... on all my rifles that have a brake my ports are facing the 9 and 3 o'clock position to blow the blast to the sides ELIMINATING or REDUCING the recoil.
Yes, YOU ARE WRONG!! This is a Compensator, NOT a Brake!! There are only TWO Ports and they go up!! Trust me, I have been shooting Compensators since 1994, on pistols and this Comp was designed as an older 1990's Compensator, he now makes a Brake, which I don't like, I prefer this old design MUCH Better. A Compensator was designed to Reduce MUZZLE Flip, to direct gasses UP, so it would Push the firearm DOWN and COMPENSATE!!! Case and point, the 2011 pistol in 9x25 Dillon, it OVER compensated and pushed the muzzle down WAAAAY too much, but it had recoil out the ass.
Good texturing, high quality polymer, looks, and cheek rest options. But mainly, Magpul is just a great company, and they make extremely dependable products. They're the only company I've seen that can make aftermarket magazines that function better than the factory magazines. I'd trust that Magpul stock to take a beating far more than the standard stock, and I haven't used that stock, but I can only assume they designed it for optimized ergonomics. It just looks comfortable and form fitting, and every Magpul product I've bought has had comfortable and form fitting as a top priority.
Yeah, I just bought a pc carbine but it has the flag camo finish. So I probably will just leave it as it is. Was digging your build though and like the magpul stock on it. Looks great man.

Not very good quality, the magwell insert needs a lot of work in order to hold the ruger magazines. It doesn't come ready to install. Also sorry but CROM Customer service is non existent. I contacted them and nothing, silence. Very disappointed
Since the Ruger Pc9 made its debut in the American marketplace, there has been an ongoing issue with the gun's ejection system and the need to replace it after shooting 1000 to 1,500 rounds. Would you kindly address this issue?
Honestly, I got this carbine before it was released on Dec 2017, honestly, this is the first thing I heard about this. The ejector is part of the Magazine block, it's a stamped piece of steel, just like the Glock Ejector. If there was an issue, this is the cheapest part of the whole gun and if this was happening, Ruger just sends you a new Magazine/Ejector Block. But again, this is the first time I heard about this and I have shot much more than 1500 rounds with mine.
I am so sorry you lost my attention when you mentioned California and the problems that they have. I personally like the traditional rifle stock with the MLOC hand guard. I purchased mine with the American theme graphic. I was considering the change of rear stock but have decided against it. I have removed the spacers from the stock and it makes this weapon very short and easy to move with. Yet still remains a true PCC. I have equipped mine with a Holson shake awake green dot and blue laser on the chin of the front hand guard. I am very satisfied with this set up.
Maybe to you, but Jen again this is MY gun, NOT to yours, and I live in America, where I can do whatever I want with MY own property as long as it’s legal and this stock is legal. I would NEVER dare to tell you what to do with YOUR property.
9mm tank 😎 I bought mine earlier this year and it is my castle defender. Love it.
This is a great multi purpose firearm indeed!!
1:02 - I have been seriously debating getting an AR-style stock for mine, but I'm far too hesitant to move away from the rifle stock that I really like and am already comfortable with. I think you sum it up pretty well here.
The way I look at it, when I wanted a 9mm AR, I got one!! This is NOT an AR, nor was it meant to be an AR, I like it as it is now!!
I've got 2 ar 9mm and I'm like you I got the ruger because it was different. I love shooting it 2!

That sounds like a good competition rig. I went the opposite way, for more tactical/Defense setup!!
Awesome! A way to add wood furniture to the pc9!
Yes, you can add a Wood Mossberg Stock for sure!!
I'd love to see a wood shotgun stock on that. With the foregrip it would make it look like a PPSH.
And some custom matched, wooden grips for the rail!
That sounds like something REALLY interesting
@@chrissewell1608 I agree

There are so many choices now, you have so many options and brands now.

With the Chassis, it all depends what stock you put in it!! It'd s tad heavier with the Magpul Stock, but I REALLY like it!!
Yes we both are in agreement plinking a lot easier to do with a 9mm rifle then going hunting in which I would never do. So again Thank You for your informative youtube videos
Thanks for your comments, stay tuned for more on this great Carbine!!
Does anyone know how CROM is doing? I've waited 7 months for the stuff I ordered.
They're a very small company, sometimes stuff takes time to get back from machining!!
Did you ever hear back?
How is the weight as shown at the end of video compared to the rifle in stock form? Is it significant? My wife and daughters shoot this rifle
In all honesty, I never actually weighed the original stock and the Chassis with the Magpul stock, but this combination is actually heavier than the original stock.
@@yrsued Thanks for the feedback. That's a bummer about the weight, I was hoping to shed some lbs
@@electropentatonic I don't consider the weight a problem, I actually welcome the weight myself!! I will weigh them against each other to tell you the real weight difference.
Did this setup ever get weighed?
Will that magpul stock fit the original reciever?
You will need the CROM Chassis to use the Magpul Shotgun Stock, but Magpul does make a very nice Two Piece BackPacker Stock for it!!
I agree with you 100% but I just wanted to let anyone making a comment know that a gentleman went from 50 feet all the way to 200 feet plinking targets. I do want to Thank You for all your insights on the Ruger PC9 it help me a lot so I purchased one.
IT can be done!! Not hard to do!! But Plinking Targets is not the same as Hunting!!
Will you be using this for competition? 😂
I no longer do competition.
What size screws did you pickup from the hardware store?
To attach the Receiver to the Chassis?? I honestly don't remember, I got the info from the owner at CROM. You can give them a call and they will help!!
How cool. I wish ruger would make one chambered in something a little spicier.
.45 or 10mm, along those lines.
They already make a .40, you never know…
@@yrsued I have in 40 S&W and it is great!!!
@@billsmith8739 I heard the .40 is very nice...

@@SuperMegaGaelourde We did a Video on the AR556 from Ruger, we even customized it!! I sold it to my neighbor, local Cop that needed an MSR!!
Some guy used his Ruger pC9 and hit a plate at 200 feet
Yes, you can do that, what I've always said is that the reliability and effectiveness of the caliber for hunting purposes is NOT 100+ Yards
The backpacker is a lot lighter chassis..
Oh, ABSOLUTELY!! This chassis is Aluminum and the Magpul Stock adds a lot of weight, I said so on the Video!! This is NOT a lightweight kit.
Looks good Yamil!! I like the way you did that.
I’d never recommend using hardware store screws/springs/bolts on firearms. The gun looks better than it did stock though! I’d have gone black with the charging handle though myself. Want to see you shoot it next brotha!
We have black charging handles for it, I like the NP3 for durability
@@yrsued np3 is definitely a great treatment and above Cerakote for certain!
@@KendrasEdge757 BY A LOT!! Cerakote is a spray and Bake, NP3 is a plating process that combines Nickel and PTFE.
@@yrsued yeah exactly. Anything bonding to the metal is better than spray paint. Powder coatings hold up better than Cerakote lol
@@KendrasEdge757 I have a couple of cerakote items, this chassis is cerakoted, but for wear and friction parts, Plating is king!!
Does the CROM mag release only work with Glock mags and not the Ruger SR9 mags? Other mag catches I've seen for the Ruger PCC were like this.
This one is for Glock only, the mag catch itself is Polymer, I wouldn't use a Polymer Mag Catch on a Metal magazine and Vice versa...
