i had a su16c. it was a cool gun, but i had some failure to eject problems with aftermarket mags. with the factory mags it was all good. it has very little recoil.

OMO, but for that $$$, you can do much better.

The rifle of theirs that I want is a sub2000, 9mm carbine. Just can't find one anywhere.

I have one of these carbines that uses Glock 17 magazines. The thing is very accurate, easy to take down for cleaning, and folds nicely to fit in a large brief case. It'll shoot almost any 9 mm ammo (except aluminum casing) that you can stuff into the magazine.

These carbines are fairly inexpensive and very functional. By very functional I mean...well, if you want the Cadillac version buy the CX4 Storm. I don't mind throwing the Sub2K into the trunk of my car. It seems pretty rugged.

I have a CA. Had a C, but sold it when I got rid of the old lady (was hers). It is reliable, accurate, and light as all heck. I'm not sure I'd rely on the plastic receiver in a SHTF situation, but it's a great rifle to fold up and take in the pack when going hiking. Also fun to shoot rabbits with.

I'd offer you some $$ for it, but in my frustration at not being able to find it I was forced to spend my money on an AR15.

Saiga .223? Can be had for < $350. Doesn't take AR-15 mags, but AK .223 & Weiger's can be modified to work. Commercial 20/30 round mags can be had for <$40.

Of the 2 keltecs which seems to be a better choice. Only about a $50 difference between them.
