Pistol Caliber Carbine

[IchBinEinSniper]

What would the majority want for a pistol caliber carbine? I have seen 9mm and 45acp, and these seem to be the standard, but what would be the wish list?

10x25mm AUTO hands down! If I could get an AR or any kind of subcarbine in this caliber, I'd be in love.

Nothing like shooting expensive 10mm factory ammo from an expensive restricted firearm.
The only reason to shoot a pistol carbine would be to reduce cost, not compound it.

A .40 cal would be the best choice. As long as it takes pistol mags.
Then everyone who shoots idpa or ipsc has a common caliber to work with.

What's not to love? Inexpensive, flat shooting, powerful....

Yes... I like that idea.

Though the winner is the 10mm so far.

+1 on that.

Actually just sold a Marlin camper 9mm to someone on this board - in the mail.
Will be selling my Ruger PC4 next year. Uses Ruger 40S&W pistol magazines. Its restricted and in new condition - might have fired it a dozen rounds - don't remember. In original box... Prefer to sell FTF (face to face). What is it worth?

Any caliber as long as it is made by glock. They are long overdue for a carbine.

I second this as well. 7.62x25 and 10mm are what I want. 40 is exactly what it is followed by "short and weak".
