9mm ruger carbine?

I have a 9mm ruger carbine, Which I purchased a few years ago from a pawn shop. It is a great gun, lightweight,short and very accurate for the barrel lenght.
I read somewhere that it was originally produced for law enforcement.
For urban use. I am pretty sure the model is a P9 carbine.
On the receiver it only say's " Ruger Carbine" no model name or number.
On the other side of the receiver is 9mmx19 stamped near the magazine.
The serial # is 470-11824.
The receiver has scopemounts built in to receive a scope.
I read somewhere that it was also available with ghost sights.
I do not know what ghost sights are.
Where can I go to date the gun?
And what exactly are ghost sights?
The sights on it are a rear adjustable, front fixed with a V tang and blade.
Who ever had the gun before me had painted white dots on the rear sight and painted a white line on the top of the blade sight.
Does anyone have one of these?
It is one of my favorite guns.
Any info would be appreciated. ~JJ~
