This video shows the 9mm J.R. Carbine. Pistol caliber carbines are both fun to shoot and the fill a useful self-defense niche.

Nice. Looks like it doesn't have a last round bolt hold open, is that indeed the case?

The forearm you put on it, is it a standard AR forearm?

Magazine relase: Is it an ambi mag release or is it just a single side mag release?

Yes, bolt does not stay open on last round.

The quad rail forearm is standard, but any AR forearm should fit.

THat is a neat little thing.

I really like those.

Are any internals AR spec? can you use an AR trigger in it?

How is it detail stripped? I like a easy to strip gun.

Damn, he likes that Aimpoint close. Ever hear of eye relief. lol.

It is pretty easy to strip. And it is easy to change calibers. they sell caliber conversion kits.

You do need tools to strip it...castle wrench and allen wrench. You remove the butt stock and three take down screws. The recoil spring comes out with the butt stock, takedown screws drop the trigger group and magazine guide. Then you remove the bolt handle and the bolt slides out.

It takes AR triggers.

I like it. I don't think it'll top my Sub2K for 9mm, but I might just have to pick one up in .40 S&W to go with the Glock 23 (or more likely a Glock 32 and a .40 conversion) that's on my list to get.

I kind of wish they made one in 10mm. I'd be writing the check!
