10mm Carbine: What are your Options

This looks interesting, thought I would share it.

10mm Carbine: What Are Your Options? (2023)

The market isn't bristling with 10mm carbine options, but there are long-guns that pitch "Perfect 10" if you look. Find out what they are.

Stay away from the Olympic Arms, their mags are terrible! Bought a conversion(complete upper w/mags) and it would hold about 1/2 to 3/4 of mag capacity, that was the good thing! I didn't shoot it just so returning it wouldn't be a problem. MidwayUSA for the win on 100% + shipping for the return! I have 2 Vectors (45acp & 9mm). The accuracy is good, but function has been a problem. Function rate for the 45 is about 75% and the 9 about 30%.

May sound weird, but I've heard HiPoint makes some really good carbines. I've not personally tested one. I had requested one be sent for T&E, but it never arrived.

I have 2 Vectors (Pistol & Carbine), in 45, and have not had a problem to date with either. I was thinking of getting one or both in 10mm, they're on my short list. What kind of problems have you experienced TFL?

Nice Talyn . As I mentioned to TFL in a post below, I'm thinking of getting the Vector(s) in 10mm (I have both pistol and carbine in 45). But I'd also like to get the MCK for my Glocks G20/G21 (I have the MCK for my Glock G19 and love it).

Bolt not fully closing, short extracting and extracting. +P works fine, but is hard on brass. Standard pressure is hard enough on it(bent cases).

Thanks TFL. As mentioned, I've yet to experience problems, but with so many guns in my collection to choose from, It's not like I'm shooting them frequently. So who knows, I may experience the same issues down the road.

Standard pressure works best, but maybe some kind of lube issue? I've tried many different kinds and have yet too get 1 that works best?

APF (Alex Pro Firearms) makes a 10mm Carbine & pistol that use G21 mags.

Made just a little ways away from me, nice stuff...considering one of their .45 pistols built off the same receiver.

I have an APF sbr/pistol in a 7.62 w/ 12.5" barrel and it's heavy! It has been a great gun! My oldest son is putting his claim on it.
