    Interesting. But, I'd be more interested if it were .45 Auto.

    Glad to see them bringing that back, and surprised to see the mag selection available for it!

    Not a fan of its looks but the original was no beauty either. That being said I'm interested especially with the Glock mag compatibility.

    Agreed ! We used to call something looking like that "butt ugly".

    I've already seen pre-orders for as low as $520 shipped.

    With the current state of the gun business I'd bet it'll be cheaper by next Christmas.

    I definitely want one of these. Put the charging handle on the left side, get some Glock 33 round mags, maybe throw a red dot on it, and you should have a nice little SMG stand-in. Would be nice if it weighed a pound less, but maybe they'll come out with a lightweight version eventually to hopefully bring it down to at least M1 carbine weight. Otherwise I love the feature set, and if you're going to have a meaty barrel I do like the fluted profile they went with.

    I too would be interested in that. Hopefully they come out with one.

    I'd rather go 9 mm AR pistol with a brace. Would fit in a vehicle better.

    I'm trying to decide if I want/need one. I, already, have a Hi-Point 9mm., a Chiappa M1-9, and a Kel-Tec SU-2000.

    Don't know if I can justify getting another 9mm. carbine.

    May pass on this one....

    I wasn't too interested until I found out about the Glock mags.

    The Kel-Tec SU-2000 uses Glock mags, too.

    Not a fan of the Sub2k. First one was a pile of shit, second was gen 2, but I just did not care for it.
