Except for the fact that the german MP40 and the US Thompson SMG both were fiersome things in WWII, both were SMGs not even carbine length....

A Quote from KW Gary M:
Quote:      
If you read any of my posts in the General Handgun forum you will see I am not ny any means a High Point fan but I would get one of their carbines. I still hold my position that their pistols are crap but their carbines have a great reputation. I will probably get one if I ever see one for sale. They are tough to come by but I want one.
Careful, KW Gary M, it's a gateway drug...

BTW, check out the grips on my pistol, and maybe you'll like the looks a bit more.
