The cool thing about PC guns is that they are/were only purchased and built once..............

In the 90s people were buying guns for $400-700 (plus tax) ; Colts, Browning's, Smiths' etc., then sending them off to be "rebuilt"...... and often times refinished....... for another $1000 to 1500(plus shipping 2 ways) and a 3-12 month wait.

......the PC took raw frames and parts and built the gun from the ground up..... "right" the first time......and selling them for $800 to $1000; saving the buyer 50% or more over buying and customizing.

Also given Novack's input on the 3rd gen guns......... my guess is that the PC guns are what Novack would have built as a "custom" vs. commercial/police duty weapon.

While I like my Shorty 9s......... my PC SD9...... is/ and will always be the only "steel framed" 4.25 inch barreled gun....... built on the 6906 pattern. That's about a custom as you can get..... in my book!!!!

I need a drink........ pass the Kool Aid....... oh h--- it's 5'oclock somewhere........ pass me a beer! LOL
