I'm looking for a rifle or carbine with approximately 16" of barrel length and as close to the legal 26" overal length limit as possible. I want it to be quick and light, and most likely semi-auto (as opposed to lever, pump, bolt, etc. etc.). 10+ rounds capacity and detachable magazines would be nice bonuses.
It seems that most AK/AR rifles and other commonly available carbines are all at least 34-35" and thus too lengthy for my desired application.
Also, since this is to be a defensive carbine, a decent caliber that gets enough powder burned in a short barrel is surely a must.
Note: I really really don't want to go "real SBR" route.
Any suggestions?
