Ruger introduces the new LC carbine

[Axxe55]

You type pretty well for a blind man

Just need a Braille keyboard!

I have the Kel tec version no need for 2.

and I think the KT looks better and has a 50rnd mag

Only thing I don't like is only being offered in one cartridge. They need to offer it in 9mm and 40 as well.

I think this is Ruger's preparation for an assault weapons ban. Moving the magazine to the pistol grip does take it out of most AWB definitions.

It's an interesting design. Let's see how it plays out....

Yawn........ Not for me.

Well duh that thing failed. 6.8 never got below $1 a round.

And if ammo is $1 a round you aren't going to put it through a mini.

Ammo prices aren't the fault of Ruger. Not supplying 10 and 20 round magazines is where they failed the consumers.

If there was demand, they'd make some.

Lets put it this way, there is very little overlap between 6.8 spc shooters, and those who want to shoot it out of a mini.

If anything, you should be mad at ruger for selling that combo in the first place

That's the reason ruger has been off my list for several years. I could reload the ammo but it isn't worth it for a 5 round magazine.

It makes the gun more compact, too. IMO that's the only way PCCs should be built.

I'm not likely to buy one, but I think it's great there's more interest in 5.7 these days.

What's it do that my 22mag ar pistol upper can't do ?

Which is more tacticool? Function is in second place.

With the 22mag I don't have to worry about picking up my brass

In a 16 inch barrel:
Shooting at paper...nothing. Shooting at soft armor (depending on bullet weight and fps)...a lot.

Ruger LC Carbine Review - Paul Harrell

 

[glenbo]

If Harrell could do a video in 5 minutes, which I believe he could, instead of 27 minutes, I'd watch him and see what he has to say. Otherwise, I have better things to do.

Most of the time he tells you where to skip to to get past the boring stuff...or you can just go to the end of the video.

I think Harrell is a nut case, but occasionally has some good info (and some real fudd-ish opinions).

It's better than watching a 27 minute nutnfancy or sootch00 video

 

[Grumps21]

Suggested retail almost a grand? What’s that make the street price? $800?

 

[Lonesome Dove]

I don't have an empty void for something so un interesting.

 

[Sam7sf]

Looks like Ruger poached a few engineers from KelTec

Lets hope not.

I sometimes feel that way. Other times he has good information. I don't know, you be the judge.
