Best NR 9mm carbine!

Best bang for buck has to be sub-2000.

I agree.

I had a jr but sold it due to being the biggest pos to tear down and clean (it shot good though).

Then I got a sub 2k. Love it. Upwards of 4000 rnds with no probs at all. I put on the kel tec alum quad rail for a red dot on a qr mount.

Seeing as I have a barreta with lots of mags... got a chiappa m-1. It shoots well. Had to stake the rear sight in the dovetail as it would come loose and drift on its own. Starts to stovepipe after about 250-300 rnds. Quick clean then good to go. My son loves it the most. Hes a huge wwii buff and with the wood stock and canvas o.d. sling looks the part. Its a second kind of cool...

Have both Chiappa M1-9 and Kel-tec S2K, gen 2 as well. Chiappa is a dud but the Kel-tec runs like a top and is acurate. I've only got about 300rds through mine so far, mostly steel case and zero issues with it. Considering another.
 
CX4

Triggers can vary from decent to awful. Mine was awful. I put in the Sierra Pappa kit and my groups shrank to unexpectedly impressive levels.

The only other carbine that has caught my eye is a Czech one that I saw advertised at Kellys. Wood n Blue rifle that looked to take 1911 mags. I'd like to find more info on that thing..


Wait? What?

Don't have any experience with JR carbines or CX4s but I picked up a chiappa m1-9 last week. Shot 300 rounds through it so far without a single FTF or FTE, using both 115gr S&B, and 124gr Western Munitions reloads.Has a heavy trigger pull, but a new hammer spring is on order to fix that.

Love the iron sights. Filed the front post width down a bit and added some fluorescent orange paint to the tip to help at longer distances. Consistent hits on a 12x12 inch target at 100 yds.

Didn't expect it, but it's becoming my new favourite range toy
