Yeah, I thought IV8888 wrote them a nasty letter or something

It’s always funny when people say, I don’t understand who this firearm is for because they hate PCC’s . Pistol, caliber, car beans are primarily for people who don’t want to diversify ammo which I completely understand. If you’re the type of person likes to stockpile ammo but doesn’t want to break the bank. It’s much easier to invest in one caliber, then five or six different ones.

Valid point but i would still go least 3 different because one tool rarely is best possible in all situations. My pick are 22lr very obvious reasons. 9mm for handgun and maybe pcc. And lastly either 223/556 for semi-auto AR or .308 for bolt gun. Depending where you live.

300 blk exist because you can literally make it from 308 and 556 casing. On top of being all around better than 9mm ballisticly. 9mm is pointless in a rifle platform these days

There is a recall on the response, if you own one, see if it's one of the recalled. Edit: the FPC is awesome, accuracy, cost, etc...

I have had Glock mag 9mm carbine feeding rounds into the back of the barrel, no feed ramp. It was randomly shoving the bullet down into the case and it shoved one far enough that the round did not fully chamber. it went off with a high pressure spike and was not fully chambered and blew out the bottom of the case. Because of jamming the bullet into the back of the barrel and shoving the bullet down into the case. NO feed ramp or inadequate feed ramp on a Glock mag 9mm AR is a serious problem.

Love it.

Lucky Gunner did some testing on various pistol rounds through various barrel lengths, and most 9mm rounds, even +P, are starting to actually drag in a 16in barrel, causing them to be slower than they would be out of a 10 or 12 inch barrel.

Have you ever seen any other gun in slow-motion? They all flex exactly like that. Especially the AKM barrel whips like a wet noodle. Ian McCollum even made a presentation on the topic, the video is at his channel.

I miss these range videos. Can you do long range tower shooting with old iron sight bolt action rifles again?

for the same price I would go with the all metal receiver Ruger Charger... or PC charger that sells for $600.

I sure wish they would make a mag well for thG3. Id buy one. Don't really want to trade my taurus for a smith 2.0, but i may have to. Thanks for your video brother 🙏🕊🇺🇲🦅❤️

I was ready with cash in hand the same week the recall came out 😅 I’m just waiting for my local stores to update their in store responses so that they are the ones that are repaired. I’m anxious to get one and still have the cash to buy but my store barely found out about the recall😢

Sorry but an ar thats made of polymer should be no where near 700 beans, especially in 9mm. That’s about as much as the vastly superior m&p15 haha

Does all polymer save a noticeable amount of total rifle weight over aluminum?

Eric? Whats a good 12 gauge training round for up to 20 yards with a solid grouping?

Why’s the barrel like that and does it have a buffer tube?

They announced P320 magwell module, it's available now.

The slow-mo shows a lot of slap in the upper. I would rather have an aluminum than polymer. Still a great video by Eric. S&W missed the mark especially at the price point. My hot take…

I love me some Witt Machine, they just don't get as much love as they should.

I really wish they would make a .40S&W version, since that's the caliber of pistol I carry and have a bunch of S&W M&P magazines for.

🇺🇸

having options like this enhances the overall shooting experience and makes it easier to integrate with existing firearm collections.

this looks pretty nice and im into it being polymer. but ive been pretty scared to buy another s&w after how poor the QC and (2x) warranty process went on my 642. i hear good things about their other products. is it just their revolvers that are so half-assed nowadays? i dont have any other s&w but people seem to think their striker pistols are reliable.

Been running M&P PC CORE first gen since it came out in multi-gun and pistol meets since it came out, zero issues with it (and I'm LAZY, rather be shooting guns than cleaning them!), even when totally gunked with powder. My local club is now doing 2 gun meets, since it's indoors, long guns must be PCCs. Kinda digging the ability to use multiple types of mags, so my current kit will run it as well as my wife's (she's on a Glock platform). Wasn't aware of the recall until this vid, but once that issue is fixed, this platform has a place in the lineup in my opinion--and still far cheaper than a Sig or Kriss platform.

@@nbroachful just about a year ago S&W released a different 9mm carbine that folds sideways (like a twist on the sub2000) and it retails for about $600 but it only takes S&W mags. Therefore I don’t see why they would release a completely different 9mm pcc into an even more saturated market (ar-style 9mm) for a more expensive price tag 😂. If I am going to buy a polymer 9mm carbine I would personally get the S&W FPC for $100 less and is more unique. I think IV has a few vids on it if u wanna check back through.

See a lot of hesitation on the polymer construction, yet there's too many "plastic fantastic" pistol platforms (including mine!) to count when at multi-gun competitions. I'm definitely a fan of it taking multiple mag options, means even at its MSRP, it's still cheaper than buying a second PCC (I run M&P platform, wife is Glock for instance). Would love to hear additional feedback prior to potential purchase. Thanks!

I haven't watched it yet. But is it a 9mm ar-15 style pistol caliber carbine that is direct blowback like a weapon made in ww1 instead of a modern operating system. I'm going to watch it I hope i'm wrong.

On aguila's website it lists their 9mm 147gr at 1000fps. So I think aguila's 147s are "legitimate" subsonics too, they probably just assume most people know a standard velocity 147 is going to be subsonic. meanwhile Remington realizes they can get more money out of rubes if they write the word subsonic on their 147gr 9s....

Just as insight into the PCC in general, it's been an idea since the 1800s to have a rifle share the ammo of your carry pistol for practicality, even though it's a bit of compromise on available range. Though .357 Mag through a carbine isn't much of a downgrade all things considered, if you're limited to modern 9mm, you're really going to be engaging out to 150 yards effective anyway. I agree with your points though. Use the best tool for the job. 👍

I hate that they don’t make magazines for these that are Tailored to this carbine. It literally looks as dumb as all get out to have a skinny mag sticking out of a mag well that looks as if it doesn’t fit at all. It looks ridiculous. I get that they don’t want to offer a mag well that doesn’t take our regular M&P mags but….It looks so dumb. They could manufacture this firearm in a way where the mag well has a inner changeable mag well clip of sorts that can be changed out. They could have made it where the gun comes with three of those inner changeable mag well clips. The M&P, the Glock, and a A.R.-15 look alike as seen with the S&W Sport 22lr.

S&W has been pretty crappy lately. I’ll pass on this. Hope they get their stuff together soon.
