Daniel Defense PCC Rifle 9mm Luger 20rd Magazine 16" Threaded Barrel A2 Flash Hider

The Daniel Defense PCC rifle in 9mm Luger is a compact, feature-rich pistol caliber carbine built on the AR platform you already know how to run. If you're after a maneuverable, easy-shooting rifle that handles like a dream and won't break the bank in ammo costs, this is your answer. The 16" threaded barrel with A2 flash hider pairs with a cold hammer-forged design for durability and reliable ballistics, while the hydraulic buffer tames the recoil typical of direct-blowback carbines. It comes ready to go with a 20-round magazine and ships in a full-latch impact case.

What makes the PCC stand out on the rack is its uncompromising ergonomics. The lower receiver is fully ambidextrous—charging handle, safety selector, mag release, and bolt catch all work from either side, so lefties and righties shoot without compromise. The proprietary pushbutton mag release beats the paddle-style found on most PCCs, and the rifle accepts affordable, readily available CZ Scorpion magazines in various capacities. Build quality is typical Daniel Defense: the stainless-steel barrel is cold hammer-forged with a 1:10 twist, the buttstock and pistol grip feature glass-filled polymer with soft-touch overmolding, and everything feels substantial in your hands.

The 13.5" DD4 rail with M-LOK mounting gives you plenty of real estate for lights, sling mounts, or a vertical foregrip without unnecessary weight. At just over 7 lbs and 32–35.25" overall length depending on stock position, the PCC is compact and highly maneuverable—perfect for home defense, suppressed shooting, competition, or just plinking on a budget. Made in the USA and backed by Daniel Defense's reputation, this carbine is a workhorse that's simply fun to shoot.
