+1 on PCCs, Had a lot over the years from 16" barrels like a Beretta Cx4 Storm & HiPoints to short barrel braced pistols like CZ Scorpion & Ruger PC Charger.
The pros have already been covered so I won't rehash.
Two of my favorites are my KT Gen 2 Sub2K and S&W folding carbine. Very light & easy to stow.
I like PCCs with the magwell in the grip, makes for a compact package. My braced Scorpion pistol is as long as my CX4 Carbine.
My only criticism of most current PCCs is they're blowback designs, which needs a heavier bolt, vs a lock breech or roller lock design. But it's a pretty simple setup too, one that can usually keep running when it's really dirty. With ammo costs going up, cheap 9mm is looking better and better.
My shooting skills are mediocre, and I can group 9mm at 25 yards with a good PCC and a red dot better than a 9mm full size hand gun with iron sights at 7 yards. So there's a practical reason to have one.
And cowboys have known for many years it's handy to have a carbine and a pistol in the same caliber vs carrying two different calibers.
