Taurus released a new roller delayed 9mm PCC, the RPC - it looks really good and is at a competitive price point.  It looks like a great FRT host… it even comes with two locking pieces.

Maybe a little less expensive than its existing counterparts.

Proprietary mags was not the smartest move.

FRT = fun/cheap fun to “burn down”.
I wanted a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one.
No rules today, sport…just orders.
It’s not about how many people you kill, it’s about how many you save.

It’s a chassis FCG so I bet we see alternate aftermarket lowers for other mags.  This thing has serious Mr. Potatohead potential.

This,  they should have learned from Stribog and PSA.

Unfortunately I doubt that will be possible given that the FCG is the firearm. If you buy a new lower it would still be using that FCG, and not an AR one.

That means you would need to make a new trigger system just for the RPC rather than adapting it to use AR triggers/safeties which is the easy button for any other design.

Plus you would be paying an extra $300++ to improve a Taurus, while adding the tolerance stack of that new lower onto Taurus' already questionable tolerances.

Unfortunately, I agree. I suppose there is a chance someone will figure out a drop-in device or develop a forced reset FCU that could be sold as the serialized part, but sales of the RPC would have to be substantial to justify the effort and MP5s are cheap enough now to keep downward pressure on the Taurus.

have you looked at the fcg?  it looks very similar to an AR.  The hammer looks a bit shorter but that might be an illusion.

I like the look of the RPC and it's potential, but I don't $950 like it (why in the hell are roller delay systems so danged expensive?).  I'll stick with my 5" 9mm upper I built on the CMMG FE radial delay receiver and bolt for now.
