I have been wanting a carbine in a pistol caliber for a while. Mainly for plinking a SD and because I load my own ammo. I thought I could build one for about $750 but that seems impossible so I am left with a choice of carbines that function flawlessly and have an "AR" look to them and they use glock mags. So far I have found the JRC and the Thureon. Anybody have either of these and can tell me their experience with either carbine. I know they are both blowback and the Thureon does not lock back on last round but that is all I know. Please enlighten me with your experiences. Thanks
