beretta carbine

billybass
tried the new Beretta 9mm carbine today it was OK really nothing special actually it looks better than it shoots, dont get me wrong I like Berettas but it seemed kind of cheaply made and some of the parts looked like they wont have a long life, you guys tried them? whats your take? I could never figure why Glock didnt come out with a carbine , with all of the Glock lovers they would have made a fortune.I had a Marlin camp carbine some years ago I got it for a cheap price and it shot as good if not better than the Beretta I tried,sold it because a buddy offered me more than I paid, do they still make them?

    The real sorrow here is that they don't make the 45 carbine anymore! I think they quit making the 9 mm as well. Have shot the Beretta and agree with you that it is overrated! Get a Keltec, pay half the price and send it back for free repairs when it goes south. Beretta came up with a concept that was done a long time ago; other than the cool appearance it has little going for it in my opinion! Wish I had never sold my Marlin....Dumb, dumb, DUMB!!!

    Didnt mean to make you feel bad since you ordered one, but the guy paid over $650 and it just seemed like alot $$$ , that Marlin camp I had I think I gave $225 it was used when i got it, the Beretta really looked sharp but the magazine catch and few of the other parts looked kind of flimsy, it shot good as in no jams, maybe the 40 will be better as with all new stuff there are always a few bugs,what I liked about the Beretta its light and short for quick handling, I think maybe $450-$550 would have been a better price but then nothing is cheap today...I never tried that sub-2000 I bought a Grendel some years ago and I think he is the same guy who is behind the Keltec company , that Grendel was some piece of junk and I woudnt buy a keltec in any form ...I think you will see more of those beretta type carbines comming out ....9MM is the way to go as the ammo is so damm cheap.....the M1 carbines are great but the ammo is not cheap anymore & the carbines are overpriced.......good luck with the 40....Billy

    Glock does make a carbine conversion kit that the receiver attaches to. I have seen them in 40 S&W with a model 22 receiver.
