I hate watching PCC videos because everyone complains about Glock mags. I dont own a Glock. I don’t want a single Glock and I don’t want their mags.

@@hollowpointdefense this is going to be the first Ruger I buy I wasn’t talking about you because you own Glock mags and you’re making a video. What I’m talking about is peoples obsessions with they will not buy one unless it takes Glock mags that’s not how gun manufacturing works. I’m going to use my companies mags for it while manufacturing. Basically, I’m talking about people having a ridiculous expectation that all of them take Glock mags, as if no other mags are going to be produced.

Thank you for a concise comparison. The FPC intrigues me, but the Response has been a why? Your call-out on cleaning was interesting.
@hollowpointdefense 8 ай бұрын
I got the Response because it was an impulse buy.... But I really like the thing. I have more fun with it then my FPC. Also due to some AR parts being interchangeable.
@hollowpointdefense 7 ай бұрын
There are quite a few people that call the Response “A gun that no one asked for!” I believe that is where the why comes from. But now a month after using it, I like the Response a little better.

@Glowplugv1 8 ай бұрын
Timely review! Seems like there may be a little more quality in the Response vs. FPC. I'm a Sig guy so the mag well swap doesn’t mean much to me unless they plan to offer add-on mag wells for other brands which would be a real selling point in my mind. The point you made about cleaning is nice feature. Was leaning to the FPC, but the Resoonse looks like a better choice at this price point if you really dont need a truck gun.
@davidbeasley232 8 ай бұрын
I have heard in other reviews on the Response that there is every intention of bringing out other mag wells. I believe Sig was one of the main ones, but don't quote me on that.
@hollowpointdefense 8 ай бұрын
I have both, enjoy them both. But I prefer the RESPONSE over the FPC. Only because of the mag flexibility.
@dragonsofthunder 7 ай бұрын
@hollowpointdefense I love the FPC more because I can throw it in a hiking bag or gym bag super easily! But I actually like the Response more for the looks and Glock mags, although I own several 23 round Smith mags and tons of the 17 round mags

Awesome MOD to mount the site on the FPC. I've been looking at the FPC, but concerned about eye relief with optic sitting so far forward. Pleae consider doing video on how you mount that optic to the FPC, thanks
@hollowpointdefense 7 ай бұрын
It is fairly easy to install, you just remove the 6 screws holding the upper housing. Use the new screws that come with the mount. It is really easy, I would do a video, but I sold my mount. I had no issues with eye relief at all. I moved my RD back to the barrel due to the hat wear I use when shooting.

@hollowpointdefense 8 ай бұрын
First, I am a S&W dedicated user for the last 10 years. I didn't buy it for defensive purposes, it got my interest due to using Glock Mags also. I bought it to have fun with mainly. I will probably use the RESPONSE more as it is easier to clean up and maintain as well as many parts are compatible with the AR parts. The dealer I got it from only got one in as it was deemed "The gun no-one asked for!" But when demand actually dictated the opposite, he can't get them for now as they are sold out.

@hollowpointdefense 8 ай бұрын
Not so sure I see that coming at all or ever. One reason: I believe it would severely hurt the sales of the RESPONSE. Second reason: Being that the FPC is what I refer to as a M&P pistol platform, it would be difficult to impossible. If I had to choose one or the other, I would most likely go to the RESPONSE as parts can be easier and cheaper to find/get.
