I had the opportunity to check out a Smith and Wesson 500 mag the other day. Unbelievable amount of muzzle blast and recoil. At $4.00-5.00 per round, I don't see myself ever owning one but it sure is impressive how much power they were able to pack into that design.
that's a sick gun! $4/5 a round?! wow.
anybody have the stg .22 lr version? looking for feedback.
Honestly, I wasn't terribly impressed. The ergonomics weren't great and accuracy was sub par compared to a basic Ruger 10/22.
It was reliable and well manufactured, though.
Admittedly, I'm hard to impress when it comes to guns. I'm all about the practical aspects as I just view guns as tools. I'm not a collector and have simple requirements for the guns I choose to own.
I find it interesting that companies are making modern reproductions of historic arms. I can definitely see the appeal for having a working replica of a rare or vintage gun that is able to be fired safely and that is chambered for an inexpensive caliber.

Do any of you guys or girls have a recommendation for a 9mm carbine? I'm looking for something nicer than a Hi-Point but not as expensive as a 9mm-chambered AR.

BX25 magazines for the 10/22 are good investment if your state allows them
Yeah they look awesome but sadly my state only allows up to 15. Chadwick, I have two World war 2 issues garands. Both Springfield. 42 and a 45. Dude man get the 10/22!

Excellent rifle to get new shooters or kids started on. Every experienced shooter I know loves plinking with the 10/22

They got the look and feel right, though.
A friend of mine bought one when they first came out. His came in a reproduction wooden crate like the ones the real deal STG shipped in.
It would be cool to have if you're a collector or WWII weapon enthusiast. Not terribly practical in my world, though.

Any experience or opinions on those.
Both are accurate, dependable and American made.
Chambering would be 5.56 as it is also safe to fire .223 ammunition in them.
(You probably already knew that last part.)
