    Default debating the 9mm carbine

    Ok so I have been thinking about getting a 9mm carbine for a while. Problem comes in that I'm not sure what to get! I have wanted an uzi since I was little. I have wanted a Beretta cx4 since they came out. I kinda like the keltec 2000's, and I have also wanted a Calico carbine since I was little. (I did buy a liberty 3 a few years ago and really like it!) Other option is the hipoint 995. So there are the poll opinions! Post away!

    9mm is the new 22lr. At least for me!

    Uzi is kinda heavy, but makes a nice SBR and parts and mags are easily obtainable.

    Calico is kinda expensive; I have no personal experience beyond firing about 15 rds from one.

    Sub 2000 is kinda hit-or-miss reliable in 9mm; KT owner's manual recommends "heavy" loads, 147 gr. The three I once owned at different times would jam every few rounds with 115 and 124 gr ammo.

    CX4 is good quality, but has Sci-Fi styling. Some commonality of mags with certain handguns. Owners of them I know swear by them.

    The HP995 is a reliable tank, but the mag capacity is low and the options are non-existent.

    I have an SBR'd Norinco Uzi, a Vector Mini Uzi Carbine which will get SBR'd someday, and a select-fire Sterling SMG which is sort of a carbine. The Sterling has seen several 1000 rounds down the pipe in my hands and those of folks who I've let shoot it, and it has yet to fail in any manner.

    Sterling, stock folded:

    Mini Uzi Carbine:

    Check out SBRing the new CZ scorpion evo 3 s1. Love mine and submitted my F1 the day that I got it.

    This is the auto version, but it gives you an idea of what the pistol will look like with a stock.
