I'm thinking of picking up the JR 40S&W. I have a G22, which sometimes I convert to a 9mm - ie. cheaper and fit more 9mm rounds in a G22 mag.

Can the JR be easily converted to shoot 9mm, just like the glock?

There are conversion kits o go from one cal to the other, but bringing them in could be a pain, unless a dealer brings them in. Check out the JR site and they have info in it.

Another 200 rounds through it today, not one hickup. 500 rounds so far and a total of 3 stoppages. Love this rifle. Now I have to upgrade my reloading set up to keep up with the ammo consumption...oh and get some more accessories...damn I might have to sell something else.

Is the jury still out on the long-term reliability of the .40 vs the 9mm models? I ask because I can't for the life of me decide which one to buy

As far as I know there is nothing really concrete as the 40 and 45 are new to the market for the most part. I'll let ya know in a couple months as I continue to pound 40 cal through my rifle and the round count gets higher and higher.

Well I just bought a 9mm model from a Site sponsor. I gave in too lol. I chose 9mm mainly because I get 500rounds for 80$ whenever I want. Cheap to shoot.

Atta boy...

They really need to make this in a 7.62x25. $0.15/shot for a center fire rifle would be unreal. Damn near as cheap to shoot as a .22LR
I guess 9mm at $0.16/shot isnt breaking the bank either.

My .40 has been a-ok from day one (Gen II) . A few wear in issues.. after that all sweet! Can't speak on the .45 model as I don't own one.

You'll love it - I love mine......

Love the 9mm. Plus it gives me a reason to have a bag full of extra compatible magazines for my Glock. Load em up and switch em out.

I hate the fact I looked at these on the SFRC Web siteand thensearched the forum and read all 6 pages...... This sucks.....I really want one in 9mm since I'm getting started with reloading 9mm very soon.

My MAIN questions are these, what makes them non restricted, just the barrel length being 18.5", what if you make the stock adjustable, is it still non restricted?
And second question, can you actually use one for hunting purposes, like Dear, Bear or Moose? Not that I would use it for long range shooting, but it gives me the excuse to buy one LOL. I would still use my 30.06 for big game but need an excuse for the wife to buy one hahaha.

It is still NR if you made the stock adjustable.
It's great for point blank, rapid fire Moose hunting.
Tell you wife that's why you need a 10-shot semiauto non-restricted pistol caliber carbine.
