Yes, we’ve been handling a lot of 9mm carbines lately. The Jard J68, Dark Storm Industries Hailstorm, and more are on the way. They’re fun and quite practical. If you consider the controls and familiarity lent from the AR platform and combine that with the benefits of 9mm there’s a lot to like. Why 9mm? […]
New Frontier Armory (NFA) is shipping their C-5 AR receivers. Not just another Colt clone, these guns run MP5 magazines. The big advantage to this is that the MP5 magazines are great in carbines and rifles. The Colt magazines were hard to load and prone to failures. I have been working with Pistol Caliber Carbines […]
Kel-Tec CNC, Incorporated better known as Kel-Tec Weapons recently issued a recall for one of their most popular guns the Sub 2000 pistol caliber carbine. The recall only affects certain rifles produced in 2017, not the entire run of Generation I or Generation II rifles. It came to Kel-Tec’s attention when they found that they […]
The MP5 sub machine gun is one of those guns that even non gun enthusiasts can easily recognize. It was a cutting edge serious piece of military hardware when it was released in the mid 1960’s. Even though over 40 years has passed and it’s been largely replaced by reliable short barreled rifles like the […]
Blitzkrieg Components has partnered with KynShot to develop a game-changing new 9mm AR-15 hydraulic buffer. Taming the violent direct blowback forces in the 9mm system, it turns your 9mm AR carbine into the smooth-running, soft-recoiling, fast-shooting precision tool it always wanted to be. Most impressive: It comes with a limited warranty: 10 years or one million rounds. […]
Pistol-caliber-carbines are excellent firearms for a variety of reasons. Generally handgun ammunition is less expensive, has less recoil, and is more readily available than rifle ammunition. Add to that the increased practicality for home-defense use and indoor ranges being more welcoming and the PCC becomes a solid option. Previously PCCs were less desirable due to […]
It seems like around ever corner is a pistol-caliber carbine-type firearm using AR controls and Glock magazines. This phenomena is for good reason. Most gun owners are familiar with the AR platform and also own a Glock. Even if you’re like me and not necessarily a Glock fan it’s hard to deny the reliability and […]
Earlier we gave you a first look at the new Jard J68 in 9mm. Since then a few things have come to light that you should know before watching the video below. Jard Inc makes nearly everything in house, including their barrels. The exterior design was inspired by the need for a true “truck gun” […]
The Jard J68 is made from a simple formula. Pistol-caliber carbine = fun. Bullpup = handy. Pistol-caliber carbine bullpup that accepts Glock magazines = Jard J68. In other words, I’m really looking forward to some trigger time with the Jard J68. Jard is a company based in Iowa and known for their superb triggers. If […]
