FX9 4" and 8" pistols

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - FX9 4" and 8" pistols

Posted: 5/7/2020 12:22:41 PM EDT

Forgive my ignorance, but are these pistols and others like it (Ruger PC Charger Pistol) actually meant to be shoulder like you would a regular rifle?

What are the pros/cons of the PCC "pistol" vs a more traditional 16" PCC?

Thanks!

The FX9 is available in 4” and 8” pistol variants typically coming equipped with KAK Shockwave braces. They are great for the price and can hold their own against other AR9 type offerings.

PPC Pistols are great because they are much shorter and compact than their carbine counterparts.

So the braces aren't really meant to be shouldered correct. The just provide additional support against or using the forearm?

I have the 4" version and it's been reliable and runs great suppressed.

Took off the Blade. It's too narrow and I like the SB3 better.

Let me know if you want pics.

They dont care right now, there was a period of time where they did and they can change their mind anytime they want. So maybe best to just leave it as something everyone does but doesn't really talk about.

Will the Fx9 accept other tubes and or braces?
