The original version has an attractive price at $850. The m-lok for $1000 or $1200 for the chassis, although I don't like how the pc chasis doesn't come with the ghost ring sights. Can't decide on which one. Which one and why?
 
Backpacker. I'd say the Ruger is the non-specific of all Canadian PCCs, and the magpul backpacker stock is the non-specific of the Ruger variations. If wanting specific then sidestepping from the backpacker makes sense, as does sidestepping away from the Ruger entirely and towards something increasingly specialized?
 
What do you plan on using it for? If just for a casual plinker, I'd also recommend taking a look at the Magpul Backpacker version. After going through this same decision recently, I received my backpacker pc carbine this week and put a red dot on it. I like the magazine storage compartment in the stock and the way the carbine stores into one piece, plus this version doesn't feel quite as forward heavy as the other models. It might not be as versatile for adding accessories like one with the M-Lok forend, but still has that capability. I also personally like the appearance of this version over the other versions, but that's just me.
 
I went basic & then put it in the MagPul stock. The red dot is a Romeo5 from Sig Sauer.

I vote the std version or the straight stocked Mlok one as it does allow further forward grip and plenty of mounting options for sling/light.
It's nice to have the irons which you loose on the chassis model.
 
I went with the basic and stuck with the Ruger mags. To me the other models are just adding expensive $3-400 looks with little to do with makeing it shoot better. If I ever feel I am going to carry backpack, I may then buy the backpacker stock.
 
I have a few different versions of the Ruger 9mm carbines. My favorite by far is the one with the standard buttstock and the MLOK handguard. The chassis version feels a little "clunky" to me.
