I wanted to drop a few notes on my initial personal experience with the PC 9 that relate to some things I've seen discussed often.

Mag well: there are numerous reports of mags failing to seat, but both my OEM Glocks and my new Magpuls seated easily and firmly, with no issues at all. I did give each insertion a tug test but it was never necessary (although I make it a practice to do so anyway because I had it beat into me a lifetime ago).

Accuracy: a number of reports disparage the accuracy of this carbine. Mine shoots well enough to leave me the weak link in the chain. This is not a precision rifle, but it shoots as well or better as I expected. I do wish the rear sight peep had two apertures, but I'm probably being unrealistic considering the max range expectations of the rifle, I suppose.

Charging handle: I'm glad it's ambidextrous; enough said. It's very easy to operate on the 'proper' side and a real pain on the opposite.:)

I may add to this as time goes by and the round count mounts.

Mine only has issues... during matches. Twice I've had it fall out after the first shot after a reload. Embarrassing to say the least. It never happens when dorking around at the range, only on the clock with an audience.
