Interesting looking.
I know I could Google it, but asking the questions here should prompt further discussion.
Caliber? 9mm?
Pistol with a folding brace, or is that an SBR?
I know TW4 on here has one. Nothing but great reviews. Never had the chance to shoot one myself. I'd love to have one and run it. There is a YouTube video of a guy running one on full-auto just running mag after mag and the gun keeps running.

This is what Im hearing too. The new a3 model is a delayed blow back and looks to shoot way nicer and they redesigned the mags too.

you folks should handle the ruger charger in 9mm. I'm very happy with mine, considering it takes ruger or glock mags, a great deal.
Now if you're concerned about the stribog mags. joebobs is having a sale

I'm looking for a braced pistol in either 9 or 45 to run full time suppressed. The CMMG Banshee sounds very nice but I'm not paying $1500+ for that. Candidates seem to be the Ruger charger 9mm, Kriss vector 9/45 (soft on this due to price), Striborg, Freedom FX-9, Brigade mfg BM-9, and maybe the Scorpion EVO. I think I saw a bad review with Military Arms Channel for the charger (don't remember if it was bad reliability or accuracy, or both?).
Anyone else have any first hand thoughts?

I almost bought one, but in my heart I know it’s a poor mans attempt at an MP5 and is still a direct blowback. If I’m going with a direct blowback, I’ll take the FX-9 or Foxtrot Mike from Primary Arms as both of those take Glock mags. I need to shoot the A3 and compare it to a PTR 9CT, one of these will be in my safe this year.

The Charger is accurate, but heavy. It also has the same manual of arms as the 10/22, which you may prefer.
If the price still stays the same after this massive purchasing, I would be interested.
9mm braced pistol is fun for entire family. I think it is easier to shoot than ruger 10/22.

I have 45 and 9 SBR/braced options that I really like, none are inexpensive unfortunately.

I have the Stribog. Actually, I was the first person in the U.S to get one. Long story. It’s been a lot of fun. Have several thousand rounds through it. Runs great with a can too. So far I haven’t had any problems with the mags. I really like how smooth the action is. Downfall is it would be really nice to put a nice trigger in it without a lot of tinkering or modding. Mine is the first version.
If I replace my ruger PCC. (Love rugers new stuff, but I need to stop buying gen 1 that quickly gets updates, at least like the RPR/PCC have)
Stribog would be one of my votes, or the PSA options.

I’m just hoping that PSA gets their MP5 clone launched before November.

i ran the charger 9mm w/out a brace, off a cheap front rest, sig rds. Just road testing to see how it patterns @ 21' / 7 yds.
I dropped 20 rounds of my reloads (125 gr fmj, 4.1 gr TG @ 1.140 OAL) same as my hand gun loads. In to a $0.50 sized group.
The RO and guy running the 9mm PC carbine were both. Hey how much that run? Then did a standard weaver stance (again with no brace) and dropped them in the head and torso, where i pointed it.
Have not shot with the Shokwave brace yet as i have another 1.5 weeks before the stitches come out, from some hand surgery.
And honestly while i'm weak hand, only, shooting @ 7 yds to make sure i'm still on it, with various pistols. The 9mm charger is a tad heavy to do that (imo) safely. Once the right hand is workable, i will try some weak hand with it.
But damn, the brace does give it a fuck you , strong letter to follow impression. I have the SW and a sig brace, so i'll try both to see what's better for my shooting.
AS i said before Ruger did it right with the 9mm pc carbine and charger pistol.

Let us know. I have been wanting an APC9 for a while, but I could get 3 of these for the price of one of those.
