Are pistol caliber carbines actually practical… or just expensive range toys with a flex? The crew breaks down PCCs from every angle – cost, performance, competition, and real-world use.
In this episode of We Da People Podcast, Shelton, Fred, Colin (Gunplay TV), and Nick get into a real conversation about pistol caliber carbines (PCCs) – from MP5s and Flux Raiders to Glock chassis builds and budget options. No fanboy talk, just honest opinions from four shooters who actually run these guns.
