Guns, Dogs and Blades QnA

Very informative thread.

I am a back burner .22 owner- Ruger single six and 10-22.

I am considering getting something in a larger caliber like 9mm.

Perhaps a single stack for possible CCP and a carbine for longer distance work, so they too could share ammo.

Anyone have or recommend on a 9mm carbine that is a good, solid performer but won't break my "couple times a year" budget.
Ruger PC is a solid recommendation. There are several in that category.
