PCC recommendations

[Snuffman]

Looking at purchasing a 9mm PCC. I am thinking about a S&W Response since it uses M&P mags. On the other hand I am thinking of a Ruger. What are your thoughts?

I fired this for a bit at a 3gun match in Oct. It was obscene.

JP - JP-5™ Rifle

That looks sweet but I am trying to keep it around $1,000.00 or so after optic.

S&W FCP also uses M&P mags and folds.

Now that we know your budget

1) Any magazine type requirements?
2) Any action type requirements?

I have M&P mags but Glock mags are plentiful and reasonable cost. So they can be a consideration. I want semi-auto. I was considering the FPC but am concerned about how long it will take before the plastic latch starts to loosen.

I have the FPC and the Keltec Sub 2000 Gen 2 with a full MCARBO kit. They are light weight and still maneuverable with a 16" barrel but delayed blowbock, so they recoil hard. You feel the heavy bolt moving by your cheek not anything in your shoulder. Still like both better than the Ruger.

You could get the Stribog that takes Glock mags at the top of your budget. The new ones are roller delayed. Could also look at an Aero Precision EPC 9

I been running an aero with no issues at matches and they take Glock mags.

When it comes to pps's, I have close to 20 of them.(yes, I have too many) Most of them from B&T's. I don't have any keltec, nor Rugers. There's no point since these are lesser quality items. Springfield, S&W, & Areo all just gotten into the game with their AR platform.
If you were to stay within the AR type, try look into Quarter Circle 10. That's all they do.
Hope this help!

A scorpion would be around that price range. That would be my choice. Fits the bill much nicer than the AR platform. There was one in the marketplace that was priced very, very nicely. Not sure if it's still there.

If I was steering clear of the AR, I’d go with the Beretta CX4. I’ve got two and enjoy them. Very accurate and reliable.

In that price range the ruger pcc is hard to beat imo

 

[Snuffman]

Thanks for all the suggestions. I am now leaning toward the CZ Scorpion Carbine 3 plus

 

[pandabear]

For the money, the scorpion is the way to go!
Not terribly expensive. Plenty of aftermarket support. Plus it's just plain cool looking !

I would recommend B&T GHM9. You can find them around $800-$1000. In my opinion, best budget PCC. Scorpion is great choice too and you can really improve a lot with upgrades. BUT once you get a scorpion they way you wanted, it would have been cheaper just to get a GHM9.

Where are you finding these $800-$1k GHM9's?

I’m thinking he means the used market

 

[Nolastorm]

Nope new, you just have to look on gunbroker and guns.com. Every now and then you can find some listing going for cheap or they have “make an offer” option. I got a new Ghm9 6.9 gen 2 B&T mag for $930 last year. I was a little disappointed because a few weeks later I saw a compact sell for $875ish range.

It was a great PCC and was my intro into B&T quality. Only reason I sold my GHM9 was because I found a great deal on a APC9 limited 8.9 SBR.

 

[Nolastorm]

If saving up was an option, I would recommend either a MP5, APC9, or MPX. Then get a wolfman silencer (or mojave/ca$h 9 for the mpx).

It’s probably the best shooting experience (in my opinion). You will not regret it!…your wallet will lol.
