Pfff..I've "converted" long airguns into near pistol sized objects for ages.

HACK! :D

I think it's just silly to convert a pistol into a halfblood carbine.
If you can afford it, just buy both, or choose.

anyway...a sawed-off pump action shotgun is all anyone would ever need.... :D

(And a conversion kit to turn it into a sniper rifle ofcourse... :? )

It would make sense to lengthen the barrel, therefore getting a higher muzzle velocity and more plausible long range accuracy, but simply adding a stock doesn't seem to be such a good idea. Unless of course it's a machine pistol and you're after a compact submachinegun :)

For a 45 ACP carbine, I'd much rather have one of these :D

You do know that this affects your accuracy don't you?
Not because the barrel is shorter (that's a myth) or due to ergonomic reasons, but because of the choke at the end of the barrel that will be cut off.
Till the day I'm dieing, I'll keep them spuddies flying, 'cause I can!

I don't think he's referring to commercial airguns ;)
