It's just a lightweight rifle with a short barrel.

Yeah, I'd like to know this too. I used to know but I forget. I know that the barrell has to be under a certain length but I forget what it is. Something like 23" or less.

20" or less defines carbine to me

20" or less defines carbine to me See I would say 18", but thats opinion. Like the SOCOMII. I was just wondering what was industry standard if any. |

RE: What defines a carbine?
Maybe I am wrong, but I bet its like the word magnum, You can tack it to any cartridge without specifications.

RE: What defines a carbine?
Would you identify a NULA as a carbine. I wouldn't
|
RE: What defines a carbine?
No, a NULA would definatly not be in that catagory.
Thats what I am getting at. It appears to be a marketing name. |
