Just Right Carbine review?

[Sniper338]

Anyone have one? Its pretty much exactly what I want for wasting pistol ammo/fun shooting...

Pros cons, god bad the ugly? Itd get thousands and thousands of rounds through it....

Well i have met a few guys that shoot tactical three gun that love their 9mm AR's but i have never owned one. I shot a few by chance and if thats your game then i think you may like the experience.

I got ammo to burn with a fun gun. Enough to justify buying a carbine for fun.

Well, if you can get past the peer pressure, guffaws, and since you asked. I bought a used Hi-Point 9mm carbine a few months back and it is a sure nuff fun gun. I've run about 1000 rounds of Winchester hard ball and not once has there been a problem. I put a Tru-Glo Gobbler redot on it and the accuracy is a bit amazing at 50 yards. I got two extra magazines for it and now it doubles as my home defense gun.
They're not expensive, a hoot to shoot and it appears re-sale doesn't go down the toilet. Find one to shoot, I'll think you will like it. Be warned, the trigger ain't nothing to write home about.

Guffaw! They are no HK..... That aside. They most certainly are no HK and they are not meant to be. They are a fun little gun. My son has one. If I wanted PCC I would buy one knowing it would spend 99 percent of it's time in the safe. If I was going to shoot a PCC more often I would go a different route.

A Hi-Point carbine is good. Not real accurate but inexpensive and has a lifetime warranty. About $250.

My Gen1 9mm carbine has a trigger pull weight of 5lb, 14oz. Not really a bad trigger, similar to a decent semi-auto pistol in DAO mode.

The JRC is a really nice shooter. the accuracy is very respectable for the platform IMHO. I wouldn't own the Hi-point but the JRC worth owning if you want a dedicated pistol caliber unit.

The best ammo I found for this carbine is CorBon Powerball. It has a rounded nose so feeds reliably, is 100 grain and expands like a hollow point, and I got velocities as high as 1,750 fps with it. The only ammo that would not feed is CorBon 115g hollow points. They are very stubby and tend to jam in the feeding ramp. Everything else I fed the carbine worked.
