The PC Charger’s takedown design pairs a compact footprint with quick separation of the barrel/forend and receiver assemblies. Its 6.5 in cold hammer-forged, heavy-contour alloy-steel barrel is threaded 1/2x28 for common 9mm muzzle devices and suppressors, and the 1:10 RH twist stabilizes typical 9mm projectiles efficiently.
Modularity is a hallmark of this model. The interchangeable magazine-well system supports both Ruger SR/Security-9 and Glock double-stack 9mm magazines; this pistol arrives with the Ruger magwell installed and the Glock-pattern insert included. The charging handle and magazine release are reversible to suit left- or right-handed use, and a cross-bolt safety provides simple, familiar operation.
Construction is robust and purpose-built: a 7075-T6 aluminum receiver finished in Type III hard-coat anodizing, a glass-filled polymer frame, and a CNC-milled aluminum handguard with a factory handstop. A full-length top Picatinny rail and an integrated rear 1913 rail section offer straightforward mounting options. There are no factory iron sights.
This U.S.-made example (2021) includes four 17-round magazines, the installed Ruger SR/Security-9 magwell, the Glock-pattern magwell insert, and a detachable 1913 Picatinny-mount arm brace kit, along with the original box, manual, and decal.
