What's Your Favorite Carbine?

[OkieStubble]

Hunt the pawnshops, but there aren't a lot of them.

Replace its presumably crumbly rubber recoil buffer - its Achilles heel - and rock on, with great style.

Any companies making aftermarket parts to upgrade that rubber recoil buffer?

One of my fellow Range Safety Officers had a CZ carbine in .223 for sale, I was very tempted, but I didn't need another .223.

No, but I have a M 38 Swedish Mauser, the carbine or short rifle verison of the more common M 96. Mine is a 1900 year model made by Mauser Obendorf and with a two digit serial number, all numbered parts matching.

Yep, and the owner will need them.

I wish I had one in 9mm! A funky design from a great company.

I inherited my dad's short .30 M1 carbine when he passed away recently--it is a nice weapon all around.

1942 Inland Arms M-1 Carbine. My go to rifle when I feel threatened!

I would be remiss for not mentioning my Crosman M1 Carbine in .177 BB. This one actually saw frontline action in the BB gun wars fought by myself and my friends in the "back 40" located on my father's and my friends' parents farms.

not sure it's technically a carbine...

I shot more BB gun rounds than all my other firearms combined.

I enjoy the Ruger PC9 and the Mini 14.

Ruger 10/22 for me

I enjoy taking it out plinking cans, plastic bottles and milk jugs for years now.

Agree with this. I have had a 10/22 in one form or another for 30 years. A super fun gun that is cheap to shoot. And it’s very easy and inexpensive to customize. Which makes the gun fun and exciting for longer.

Every time I see a P90 in 5.7, I automatically think to myself,

Now you need a matching 5.7 pistol.

 

[MarkM10431]

nah. I think if i was headed for zombies it would be the '90, 6 mags and a good ole 1911 with 3 extra mags

That’s a great plan also!

I never understood how bullets could do much of anything to zombies?

Even zombies can’t function with no head?

Like Sam Jackson said in the movie Pulp Fiction "If you want to kill every MFer in the room you need an AK47".

I believe he said that in Jackie Brown. I am absolutely, positively sure of it.
