I want a carbine chambered in 9mm due to ammo availability/cost, I'm waffling back and forth between the Ruger PC Carbine and the Berette CX4 storm.

Goals: A 9mm range carbine that's fun and also a reasonable home defense weapon(and think hi point carbines are butt ugly). I think both guns provide that. Both have excellent reviews.

Opinions and reasons?
I had a Beretta CX4 and Sub 2000K and they were okay. My favorite is the SIG MPX this is amazing, but also $2K now days. I bought a Ruger PCC on Friday at Cabela's and took it to the range yesterday. If shot nice I had a few failures to feed when the mag was full, but filled up 3/4 th the way it ran fine. I had a $300 gift card and it was only $599 so I don't have much in it. Looking for an optic to go on it. My plan is to buy another Sig if they come down at all. Colt 9mm is also a nice option.

Heard a lot of good things about the MPX but yeah, they're pricey.
When I bought my CX4 they were $550-$600. Have never had a hiccup of any kind with it.

The PC9 Carbine and CX storm are both great shooting PC's! The PC9 suppresses well also, unfortunately I haven't had a chance to try a threaded CX Storm.
Pay to have mine threaded and I'll let you try it. :D

Bull barrel on what? Did you click on the pricing list? That's where I got the $95 from.

It's a .223 wylde and it's on one of my ARs.
Yes I checked the link out.
That 24" bull barrel is the only thing I wish was threaded that ain't.

If their website is any guide I THINK all they're making now are the 92 mag versions and perhaps leaving it to the buyer to switch out the sleeve and release to the PX4 version if they wish..

From your photo looks like they included a 92 20 rounder,. The PX4 20 rd mags look like the one in my photo.

Thanks Man. I think I'm actually good on Mags though. I can't afford to shoot 30 rounds in a single mag HAHA
