This is probably correct as long as it doesn't have a fucking composite upper like someone close to me has purchased... Not sure of it's related, but I can twist the handguard (and fsp) back and forth with my hand. Fairly certain that this person paid around 400 for it. Maybe I should buy a PSA-R and trade him, then throw that absolute abominacion in the fucking trash where it belongs. I'm curious how much I need to shoot it to make it literally melt.

At first I thought you were joking, but it seems that ATI isn't content with just making disposable lowers any more. Jesus Christ.

A great question. In my opinion, at ethical hunting ranges the two are so similar in performance (for similar bullet weights) that I can't see the PRC round being a clearly better choice. I think even the recoil of the two rounds is pretty darn similar.

If you want a lot less drop and less wind drift because you're shooting at like 1600 yds, the PRC is the superior choice. If hunting big game in North America or killing people out to about 1100 yds is your concern, you have plenty of great factory loaded options and platforms already in existence. No compelling reason to switch away from the old magnum.

That's basically the feel I got when I heard 300 PRC came out. A bit more range, a bit better ballistic coefficient, but both are still 1000+ yard rounds with a ton of punch and pretty close over all. Thanks man.

I mean, the vast majority of people buying guns do not shoot them. As long as it can function well enough to fire a box or two at a pile of trash once a year, that's probably good enough to satisfy the average joe. It doesn't make those guns "good" or even "fine" in terms of their usability in a self defense or SHTF scenario. I don't think most people have thought that through, and just want a fun toy to play with sometimes. Which, there's nothing wrong with, but they won't be honest about it.

Have you seen ammo prices since (whenever)? With the amount the average burger spends on useless shit they don't have the money to spend on shooting in a semi-regular basis.
I drive a 30+ year old beat to shit pos so I can spend my money elsewhere. Now imagine being someone influenced by peer pressure because you need to keep up with the jones.

As much as I wish that people would shoot more often it's a non-starter in this day and age, we don't have Swiss model requirements for shooting (reservists) and most people are too comfortable to shoot weekly to prep for the mostly peaceful issues that could arise.
 
I have returned from hell packing a Ruger PCC in the Magpul takedown configuration. Haven't shot yet. Will soon.

Quick question. There's an included adapter that allows it to accept Glock© Brand™ Glock® magazines. I don't know much about Glonks and I don't know how literally to take this. At some point, someone mentioned there's an extra large mag that can fit in the storage of the stock. I'm also wondering if there's a shorter mag available that can be kept in the magwell without interfering with the takedown storage. This seems like information that should be easily available, but surprisingly I'm having some trouble finding it.

In the words of my father, and his father before him, just send it.

Well. Nobody knew. So for 269.96 out the door, I took it home.

If you don't have a Ruger SR9 (or whatever Ruger pistol uses those mags) I would get the Glock adaptor.

And then a Glock.

The more I think on it, the more I want a Model 10 sooner rather than later. It's THE 38 special gun. Already got the ammo for it. I need to go searching around at gunshops and pawnshops for one. It's just so slick looking.

The adapter came with it for free, and I don't own anything else that takes Ruger mags, so I might as well get Glonk mags for the variety of choice.

The stock is naturally designed around Magpul glock mags. The stendo it's designed for is the PMAG 21 GL-9 which has 21 round capacity, as indicated.

I'm not entirely sure about the second part but most of their product shots are done with their own 12-round subcompact mag which doesn't stick out too far.
