Many of you are familiar with the Mechtech carbine but, what are any thoughts of the 10mm model with a G20 grip? Aside from the outrageous cost of 10mm ammo right now, how do you guys think a weapon like this would perform compared to other pistol calibered carbines? It seems to me that it would have to be at least as effective as a .357 magnum carbine but with the firepower of a semi-auto. I have to say, this really appeals to me since there aren't any semi-auto .357 magnum carbines in existance. It would really set itself apart from the lever action 44/357s and the semi-auto 9mm/40/45 carbines out there.
I would love to get one of these uppers with a telescoping stock, red dot sight, and have it SBR'd to around 8-10" of barrel length. I think a weapon like this would do an excellent job as sort of a modern M1 Carbine. Plus with its compact size it could be put away in a small amount of space but still be deployed quickly with plenty of force to handle most lethal force situations.

Now this discussion is about this rifle compared to other pistol calibered carbines so please do not turn this into the old "get a real rifle" debate.
