Pistol caliber carbines
« on: November 16, 2007, 03:09:23 PM »
In this week's PODcast pistol caliber carbines were discussed.

My favorite pistol carbine is the Mech Tech, it uses either a 1911 or a Glock frame.

And my favorite carbine pistol caliber is the 10mm.  In a 16 inch barrel Mech Tech, you can get 2000 fps with Corbon 135 gn JHP and 1550 FPS with 175 gn Winchester Silvertips

Do you have a Mech Tech Glock frame? How is the accuracy? I've heard about them but never got to shoot one.

I like my 1911 Mech-Tech...it's a pretty cool device. As I said, I always mean to get a cheap frame and leave it attached. With one of my Para frames attached, it was super accurate...I believe they were using a Hart or a Jarvis match barrel. It really fits my criteria for a car gun...

Oh heck......thanks a whole lot...........I love pistol caliber carbines. And like Shannon42, I am a fan of the 10mm. Now this mech tech is new to me, I have never seen or heard of one. I would almost buy a G20 just to get the carbine conversion for it.

So I found out this week that the S/W model 610 is coming back (more good news for my budget), I have an AR build that I am month by month peicing together, and now this! Im gonna have to work some overtime! CRAP! CRAP! CRAP!

A few years ago I picked up a NIB Marlin Camp 45 at an estate auction.  It has been a hoot to shot and a tack driver at 50 yards.  Marlin is missing out on the multiple thousands of shooters looking for a pistol caliber carbine.

Why not get an M1 Carbine?  Twice the power of a .357 Mag, three times that of a 9mm.

I don't beleive it s twice or even equal to the power of 357 if said 357 is fired out of a carbine length barrel.
