I would hardly call a 9mm assault rifle! ha!

7.62 x 39 Biatch!

Did you check WallyWorld?

You;d be surprised at the variety they carry

Wal-Mart has the best prices.

I don't trust wal*mart's ammo, myself. I know a guy who was having all sorts of failures to fire and extraction problems one day; so, he went to his gunsmith and the smith found nothing wrong with the gun. He then used his calipers to measure the rounds he was firing and they were each significantly different sizes. Small enough to chamber, but not uniform. Wal*mart's insistence that manufacturers sell to them at the lowest price leads to shortfalls in the products going to wal*mart.

^ I call bullshit

I trust that ammo more than crap that has been sitting on the shelves for 15 years at some of the gun shops I have been to.

^ True

We hunt and trap shoot on a pretty regular basis with no problems from Wal-Mart products thus far.

i have been shooting since i was 11 and ive yet to have trouble with walmart ammo.

8/4/2006 11:53:13 PM

Although I haven't actully checked at wal-mart yet, I dont think they will have it. The problem is I need 2.5" shells when most shells are 2.75" for 16 gauge. It's a fairly old gun.

Any suggestions of places that carry uncommon ammo types?

Called Hills, they dont have it.

Thanks again

I've never seen 2.5" 16 gauge shells that weren't paper. you should trying doing a product search online and just ordering them. the only place I can think of in NC that might have them is out at Mackey's Ferry.

by definition, this is a SubMachineGun, since it is firing pistol rounds

no, a 9mm would be a carbine, pistol carbine, or assault carbine, however you CAN have rifles with pistols that match when dealing with 45-70 or the like, its only a sub machine gun if it is a SUB caliber MACHINE gun, NOT jstu a pistol caliber carbine, or even a pistol based carbine like the many many 1911 based ones.

Pistol caliber carbines

One of the more unusual classes of carbine is the pistol caliber carbine. These first appeared soon after metallic cartridges became common. These were developed as "companions" to the popular revolvers of the day, firing the same cartridge but allowing more velocity and accuracy than the revolver. These were carried by cowboys, lawmen, and others in the Old West. The classic combination would be a Winchester lever action carbine and a Colt revolver in .44-40 or .45 Colt.

Modern equivalents also exist, such as the Ruger Police Carbine, which uses the same magazine as the Ruger pistols of the same caliber. The Beretta Cx4 Storm shares magazines with many Beretta pistols, and shares its design with the Beretta Px4 Storm pistol. The recent introduction of such products may indicate that there is a growing demand for these companion carbines.

The primary advantage of a pistol caliber carbine, other than the usually-added buttstock or shoulder rest for increased accuracy, is the fact that in general a longer barrel will yield higher projectile velocity. This results in greater stopping power and increased ability to penetrate body armor. Additionally, many pistol calibers, such as .45 ACP, have much heavier projectiles, such as 230 grain (15 g), than rifles do, 55 grains (3.6 g) being common in 22-caliber rounds like .22-250 and .223.

Recently, kits have appeared on the market which consist of a carbine length barrel, bolt (usually blowback operated), and stock that attach to a pistol frame. Attaching the pistol frame provides the feed mechanism (through the pistol's magazine) and trigger mechanism, and produces a completed carbine. Kits of this type are available for Colt M1911 pattern and GLOCK pistols.


Unless he plans to buy a sub machien gun, wich

does not indicate, he would apear to be using the popular media defenition of an 'assault rifle', aka anythign with an external magazine, pistol grip, and semi automatic action. NOT a sub machien gun, wich would mean jumping through the hoops of the extra aprovals, paying your tax stamp fees, and delaing the with ungodly cost of most unrestricted transfer sub guns.
