If somebody'd make a .45 ACP carbine that took GLOCK 21 or preferrably GLOCK 30 mags, (THat was affordable, unlike that KRISS.) I'd buy one.

How about this? http://www.mechtechsys.com/glock.html

That's right, Because by putting a stock on a handgun you are manufacturing a "Short Barreled Rifle" which requires payment of a $200 tax and permission from the batf&e But by installing a longer barrel and stock you are making it a lot harder to conceal so no harm no foul...

AAAAHHHHHH  KOOL ADE IN MY EYE"S

Might be a handy little gun with the optic, but a hand gun is pretty much the same performance in a much more convenient package.
We are, after all, talking about a 2+ ft fire arm that gives you the same bullets as the G 26's several of you already carry.

Barrel has to be over 16 inches though. As I under stand it you can go with something like a 14.25 barrel and a 2 inch compensator, flash suppressor etc, as long as it is permanently attached, (pinned, welded etc.) But as always, Mileage may vary in your area.

The carbine has about 1/3 more power than the same ammo out of the pistol. +P .45 performance is great.

I would have bought the Kel-Tec if it was a .45, and if it was available back when I bought my Mech-Tech CCU. I use a Para frame and double-wide 15 round mags. I haven't tried my 20 round aftermarket mags yet. The only thing I don't like is that there's only one small nut and screw holding the stock on so I can't use it to butt-stroke anyone.  :D

Mine folds up and neatly and fits in a go-bag with ammo and G22 mags that also fit my G27.
Compact, light, and very accurate.

But they WON'T MAKE IT IN .45ACP! (Have thought about getting one in .40 though.)

And to the conversion unit, I'd rather have the carbine IN ADDITION to my pistol.
