And while a carbine is easier to handle in closed space, a pistol is easier than a carbine.You can get carbines that use the same mags as the G17 but with semi auto ammo that's about it. 100 fps more out of the longer barrel, not a lot.
Ok, I can understand that for people with injured shoulders that makes some sense, but I would think that market is TINY.
AS my shoulder is fine, and I firmly believe a pistol is better choice for home defense (or an AR15 for that matter), I will still have zero interest in the pistol caliber carbine.
It's about ammo and equipment interchangeability mostly.
