My suggestion is to try out their carbine rifles... their pistols are good (not great but not bad), fairly reliable despite what some may say, asthetically gross looking at times, but functional..
but their carbines on the other hand.. those always have been a good budget firearm. Many like the ATI stock, its an awesome looking stock, but has some long term function issues.. but the new factory stock is very nice and tactical with tons of rails and adjustment points.
I have the older 9mm carbine, its very accurate with the 16.5" barrel and affordable to own and shoot. I have a tasco red dot on top.
