Does anyone have any experience with the JR Carbine. My brother just got his PAL and ge wants a Carbine. Since I already have the ruger pcc, we didn't want to get another one. Please give me all the pros and cons. In both the takedown model and regular one. Thank you in advance. The Sooner, the better because they are on sale with an optic and carrying case. Thank you again, cheers 🍻

I have one with maybe 500 rounds down the chamber. So far, has been pretty great. Lots of options for accessories, takes glock mags, fun to shoot. The stock mag that comes with it is very cheap, and sometimes will cause the spent casings to get stuck in the ejection port, but this was fixed by switching to g17 mags. Not too hard to tear down. Gets dirty fairly quickly. Normal edition not takedown
