carbine

With the ever increasing cost of primers, powder, and bullets, I have put more effort and time into producing accurate cast loads. Here are a few of the later and time tested loads I use for lever carbine and also the revolver. Velocity listed is for carbine which has a 10:1 twist liner...

I like my $450 Extar EP9 Gen2 more than the CZ Scorpion Evo 3 - Tell me why I'm wrong: I've now fired both firearms, and fired both in approximately the same barrel lengths/formats (but even in the somewhat longer barreled Evo, I think the following comments hold true - I've not fired then 16''...

I have two questions for anyone who purchased a Gen2* EP9 directly from Extar in August 2022 or later: While I'm waiting for my Extar EP9 Gen 2* to ship, I have been trying to figure this out: (1) Does the EP "Gen 2" still come with the adjustable trigger that they did for the first half of...

Hello, new to reloading and new to this site. I’ve got a couple Rossi 92s The 20” barrel version has a long throat. It can almost chamber a full length 360 Dan Wesson. 360DW= 1.76 OAL and I chamber 1.71 no mods Typical 360DW case trim length is 1.41 Without any mods I can cycle a COL max...

I need advice. I'm mostly a handgun person (2020 Colt Python 6", Nighthawk Classic 1911, Beretta LTT Elite, etc). Heck, I even have a little Puma Bounty Hunter 1892 Mares Leg lever action in 44 Magnum! However, I feel that I probably could use a higher capacity, semi-automatic rifle or carbine...

Greetings All, Need a suppressed compact carbine for home defense...ideally under $2K total. After some research and thought - I think the Kel Tec Sub CQB may be the best option? https://www.keltecweapons.com/firearms/rifles/sub2000-cqb/ I was originally leaning toward picking up a Glock 17...

So I'm in the position where I have to downsize my collection considerably and I've got a buddy who wants to buy my RockOla. We both know the gun is worth some decent money and neither of us wants to rip anyone off. Is there some kind of valuation service we could use to set a fair price or...

I have 2 requirements. Be heavy as possible. Still fit in a 1911 mag. Would like the carbine rounds to still be usable in the 1911. I loaded up a test batch of really cheap 250gr hollow jacketed points to test around 15 years ago in a 1911. The recoil was noticeably worse than 230gr which was...

Hi guys, I am new to this forum so bear with me. I picked up a Thureon Defense 10mm carbine and have shot only about 400 rounds through it always working flawlessly and always a joy to short even though it shoots a pistol caliber and yesterday while at the range i was about to shoot my last...

I came across the following beauty; it is in impeccable condition. Here are some details: Manufacturer: Ingram Manufacturing Div. General Motors Manufacture date: 12-44 Caliber: .30 M1 I need your help to determine the following: 1. If you take a close look at pictures 7 and 8 you can see...

I searched going back to 2014 for a 380 carbine reloading post, no dice. Don't say get a 9mm carbine because I will at some point. This is all part of a plan, since my wife took my 380 sig P232 and I'm thinking she might do the same with a 380 long gun. The idea is reload maybe some +P ammo in...

I reloaded all the 380 brass I had laying around saved up for several years. largely due to having a reloading slave. My wife likes to shoot it and I would pick up all the 380 at the range I could find. It would appear most people that shot 380 just leave their brass. But we only have the one...

I've liked the idea of the PC Carbine since they came out, but was holding out for a .40 or .45. Finally, when SHOT passed this year with no mention of new models, I bought a 9mm and was happy with it.... until today, when Ruger announced 6 new models including 3 chambered in .40...

I have a T/C Scout Carbine I have had for several years, never shot, and have mostly used for getting attention at gun shows. Carrying it around, it's amazing how many table holders will ask "What kind of Winchester is that?" I finally got around to trying to disassemble the thing, and I am...

Searching google for pump .45 acp 1st hit was this old thread so I thought I would revive it. https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/magazine-fed-pump-action-45-acp-carbine.472121/ Coming from anti semi auto territories up north, This is right up my alley. Anyone thought of converting...

i know they are very different. One is pistol ammo and one rifle. However if you only could buy one, whichever would you buy and why?

Outdoor Hub Article - PSA5 Released at Shot Show 2018, Palmetto State Armory MP5 Clone. Can't wait to see about pricing and whether they will sell individual parts as well, so one can assemble one as they desire. Here's hoping that they come out with a 9-10" barrel assembly with a faux...

I've been interested in French firearms for a long time and finally got into reloading 8mm Lebel recently. So I took my M16 carbine which is just a few years away from its 100 year anniversary out and did a video on its history and some of the more paractical things about owning a reloading for...

Good evening! A while back, though not too long, I started a thread about pistol vs carbine. I also promised to include data when I worked it up. You can find the original thread here: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=810127 Anyhow, I actually got somewhat higher velocities out of...

Let's say I have a AR Pistol that was purchased whole as a pistol not some Franken-gun. Standard pistol buffer tube, no stock. Lower marked multi-caliber. Barrel is 8". What happens when I mate the pistol lower it to a 16.5" upper??? Is it still a pistol? Is it legal?
