It kind of looks like the Feather.

I wonder if they are aware that ruger makes a 22 carbine? It has a bit of a following

It's not a carbine conversion, per se.

It's a firearm in it's own right that just uses the Ruger grip assembly to feed and fire it.

(for those who aren't following me, the Ruger pistol barrel and slide housing is the "receiver" or "legal firearm", ergo, there is no "gray area" about going from pistol to carbine back to pistol here)
