I have had zero issues with mine so far and it is very accurate.
MSRP is $829, but they can be had cheaper. Bud's has them for $668.14

Well not actually in Evansville, its Chandler, that’s their mailing city, but its 1/2 way between Evansville and chandler.

But I highly recommend the fx9! Got the carbine and I shoot it in steel challenge and idpa, its a little over what the op wants to spend, but it’s worth every penny!

I’ve know guys who have had problems with them, but freedom fixes them! The owner of the company will personally work on guns! In fact I’ve known people who will drive there and they’ll fix them while they wait! Even if your the second or third owner!.

Mike (one of the owners) is an awesome guy!

PC Charger ? Or PC carbine ?

PC Carbine...the older model, but it matches up with the P-95 that I have that my middle son really likes...he'll probably get 'em both some day.

Don't hate, but I like my Sub 2000, takes grock mags, and shoots great, best get an offset red dot sight mount, because the stock sights suck... but mine has been reliable. There are some people using these in PCC matches (I don't know any, but have seen it on the interwebs, so it must be true) There are many aftermarket parts for these, plus it folds up and fits in a computer case, or backpack.....Ok, let the gun snobbery begin....

So not a Glock mag user but +1 for the Beretta CX4 carbine. Yes it is goofy looking but it is very compact, uses readily available 92 series mags including factory 30 rnd, and is fully ambidextrous with L or R hand ejection. I rarely shoot it but when I do I love it. No recoil, accurate, and fun.

The CX4 is an awesome little carbine!
I wish Beretta would continue its development and modernization… I would love to see a updated side folding stock and threaded barrel option. The ability to use Glock mags would be cool but the availability of quality FS mags isn’t an issue so while it would be nice it’s not necessary.

I like my Sub 2000, takes grock mags

Is the mag adapter for the grocks new?

Seriously, I have seen the sub2k at steel matches a few times.

MCARBO makes a bunch of aftermarket parts for them. You can change them to use other mags pretty easily.

Dude... @MrSmitty is Asian. Not cool...

Owned one in the past when they cost $395 new. It was reliable and accurate. Could not get my cheek weld down low enough to use the iron sights. Red dot fixed that, but had to be offset to allow the carbine to fold. Ended up selling it to get the FM carbine.

but had to be offset to allow the carbine to fold.

The MCARBO folding mount allows the red dot to be used in the normal location and flipped out of the way to fold the gun or use the sights. I've been tempted by them in the past.

My wife has one of these to match her Beretta 92...and LOVES it!!!
I shoot it and I like it too...very mild recoil...very accurate...shoots 147 grain like there's no tomorrow...and magazines are compatible with her pistol!
Beretta discontinued them for awhile, but have brought them back in 'as-is' configuration due to the current PCC wave...but I wish they had done a few mods to them to lessen the bulk of the stock they originally came with.

Foxtrot Mike or Extar EP9

 

[Magneto]

+1 for the Extar EP9. Very easy shooter and there are plenty of Glock mags for it.

Not Asian.....Just ancient....

Can you tell I like PCCs? Here is the newest addition to the safe:



Marlin Camp 9. I will get it to the range on Friday. I had to wait for a new bolt buffer and spring which I got today.

Sorry to the opening poster, it doesn't take Glock mags.

Well done Marvin! Was that the one from the pawn shop in Merrillville? If so, you got it for a good price.

Mine will put five rounds into an inch at 50 yards. With a scope, of course. Be careful taking it apart. They can be challenging to get back together.

[sheepdog697]

I’d vote stribog. Not sure if it’s under $750, but it’s got to be close.

Yes, from Pawn King in Merrillville. I've had it completely apart and back together again already. Looking forward to shooting it.

Do they make a 16" carbine?
All I've seen were pistols

IIRC my uncle had or may still have one in 45acp. What magazines did the 45acp version use? I seem to think it used 1911 magazines but not sure.
It's been 30+ years IIRC since I seen it.
