The really retro 9mms all had barrels under 11".
If you're looking for a 16" retro 9mm carbine, I don't know of one pre-A2. However, that shouldn't stop you. Make what you think looks cool, and I'm sure we'll all drool over it when you post pictures. . . and you WILL post pictures. . . |

Yeah, that's why I was asking if there was anything along the lines of the 6450, if I become a stamp collector, I want a .22 can first. I figure getting rid of the barrel and bcg and replacing it with 9mm stuff would be the way to go. The rifle is already done anyway. |

I think the Model 635SD is kind of neat, in a weird, ugly sort of way.

Just my .02 - I was a tax stamp and receiver pin work away from having my 635 clone done when I had to sell it.  They really aren't a very good SMG, but as a semi-carbine, whole different thing. I did keep some of the Uzi mags however.

A co-worker wants the 604, so I may just put it all in the piggy bank and get a 6450. I like having a horsey on the side anyway.

I have a Colt 635 SBR clone built on a lightweight sporter receiver.
It is fun as hell. How about a Spanish Destroyer carbine for a really way back retro carbine?

That sounds like a horrible idea. However, some of the worst ideas I've ever had turned into the funniest stories I've ever told.

They are kind of neat, but not in the same way our type of retro stuff is though. It just popped into my head when I clicked on this thread for some reason. |

It's an accurate little gun and lots of fun to shoot. Ammo is easy enough to do w/ 9x23 Winchester brass/dies and Largo load data. |

The "retro" companion in 9mm would be a Carl Gustav SMG... Including suppressed versions.
In .45, a suppressed M3. |

I have a Suomi kit I bought years ago for $19.95 when they were cheap just for this reason. I think one of the current Suomi semis would be a whole lot of gun for the money, but alas, my last day is Tuesday so... ETA: NOthing said 'spook' in VN like a Swedish K or even an S&W model 76. |
