Pretty neat, I'm already pretty heavily invested in M9 magazines.
My dad would have loved it too. |

View Quote You guys really didn't know about this? Been in the works for some time and discussed here before. Most common comment has been: "I sure hope they did a better job on this than that POS .22 M-1 carbine". A lot has been written about this rifle and one might do a bit of search for those threads. Links to the catalog page, what the options are, the MSRP, etc. |
|
I wonder if it would be possible to convert this to accept Glock mags with a little bit of gunsmithing.

There is a part of me that wants to get one of these and thread it, then slap my pending Octane 45 on it and have a really handy, quiet carbine.

I am looking forward to this. Maybe I'll get to finally use that big box of M9 mags on something.

The AR-15 section is full of discussion about these issues. It is possible to achieve very good suppression with a blowback gun. |

To bad it wasn't chambered in 10mm. That would be a damm fine liitle carbine, but i still might bite if it proves to be well built.
Also are 20+ round 92 mags availible? |

Sweet here's hopping it's less than $1,000 View Quote MSRP $705 at Gallery of Guns Assuming that's accurate, the street price would be around the middle of the PCC market. If the quality is comparable to or not too many steps down from guns like the JR Carbine or CX4 it might be worth a look, just because I like both M1s and PCCs. |

Great idea, but the magazine choice will hold me back from buying. http://www.chiappafirearms.com/sites/default/files/m19pdx.jpg View Quote Au contraire! For those of us with a few berettas already, this is awesome news. Also, for how inexpensive USGI M9 mags are at gun shows, I'm not seeing the beretta mag choice as that bad of a choice. |
|
From what I have heard these will go for like $575. Seems there are two different stocks, the nice walnut making an increase in price. The big unknown is the quality of this rifle. Sadly their .22 was a POS. Maybe this will be better.
As for Beretta 92 mags....a great choice in my eyes....but then I have a bag of them |

If it actually comes in at or under $600 and early reviews aren't horrible, I'll have to have one in spite of myself. |

>glancing at the Beretta 92 I just got.<
>glancing at my checkbook< If reviews are good, I just might pick one up eventually. |

I was hoping to see some good pics and info from Shot Show but .....

On Legacy Sports site it shows black syn-stop MSRP of 539.00
Sort of want... |

Better or worse than Marlin Camp Carbine? View Quote Don't even ask! The record of the .22 M-1 they made was not very good. Actually it was piss poor. Now they are going for a 9mm. In my heart I pray that they will do it right as I love the M-1 look, I love 9mm carbines, and I have a pile of B-92 mags (they fit my CX-4 Storm). This rifle has everything I want going for it. But I am old and wise and still have my memory and that disaster of a cheap @ss .22 they made is still clear. Lets hope they get this thing right because if they do, they have a heck of a winner on their hands. Please....please make it right! I have a Camp 9 Carbine and its one classic well made American firearm. Nicely machined steel receiver and bolt, hard wood stock, Micro-grooved barrel, etc. Hope Chiappa/whatever name they put on it, can come even part way up to the Marlin's workmanship standard. |

My wife is gonna wonder why I bought a few extra magazines for her Beretta.

A local range had a Chiappa Rhino revolver available for rental. I had planned to give it a try but when I asked about it I was told that they had it for two months and that it was popular for rentals but that it needed constant work/repairs to keep it running. They took it out of service due to the effort and expense of keeping it in working condition. |
|
I was looking for a little badger back when they came out and called all of my local shops to see if they had any to check out, about 10 different places, they all said they wouldn't carry Chiappa due to shitty quality and all of the returns they would get. I like the idea of this gun but I'll let others find out if it's a POS before I spend my money.

Quoted: Is this thing out yet or what?!?! View Quote Looks to me like Chiappa is selling it through Citadel. Click on the “Specs” tab to see prices. It says call for order. I have not called yet to see availability: https://www.legacysports.com/m-1-9mm-carbine “Might also be an attempt to hide the “Sh!@Y name of previous Epic Fails!” Note - Here are videos of the “Citadel” M1 9mm Carbine.

Just now seeing this. The missus is going to be a little irate. Especially at the $500 or so price point.

They should have made the mag well longer and made it look like an M1 carbine mag. Then you could slide the Beretta mags up inside it. |

As far as I am concerned another pcc added to the pile is good for us and every one out there. I am hoping it will be out this year and some one might come out with a way to mod the mag well for all kinds of other mags. Lets hope its a smooth launch.

I know they put the magazine at that angle to make it look a bit more like a real M1 carbine.
I am sure it will work. My 9mm AR15 will feed from SIG P226 mags which are hand-held flat against the back of the magwell. (At least, FMJ does). Still, it looks funny to me. I am more than willing to let some one else test it. |

I am more than willing to let some one else test it. The Uzi and the real M1 carbine both feed at that angle, which is going to be real close to 90 degrees, but they were designed that way. Those M92 mags were designed to feed at the angle of the grip of the M92 pistol. You can look at the baseplate to see how far off they are in this design. It probably works fine. Like I said, my AR 9mm will feed from P226 mags hand held in the mag well. That gun has paid for itself in stupid bets, (their stupid bets, anyway). Even junky aftermarket mags which wouldn't run in my P226 would run in the AR. |

Here are some pics of the M1 chambered in 9mm once offered by Iver Johnson 9mm M1, they used a BHP magazine. From what I understand, the where very reliable.
