What’s Included
- Sturm Ruger PC9 Carbine rifle (9mm Luger)
Part of Ruger’s discontinued PC Police Carbine series, this carbine was produced in 1997 and built in the USA. It uses a straight blowback, semi-automatic action and a 16-inch fixed barrel with a barrel band. Sighting equipment includes iron sights with a protected front blade and a barrel-mounted rear sight base.
The receiver incorporates integral Ruger scope-ring bases, providing a direct mounting interface for Ruger rings. A front sling eyelet is fitted at the barrel band for carry or support.
The carbine accepts Ruger P-Series 9mm pistol magazines; however, no magazine is provided with this sale. The right-side charging handle, 13.5-inch length of pull, and black synthetic stock with molded checkering and a rubber buttpad complete the configuration. Overall finish is black, including the receiver.
By design, the PC9 can be fired without a magazine installed (single-loading possible). Note that this particular rifle is inoperable as described in the Condition section.
