Rifles that use 59 magazines

[Iram]

Does anyone know of 9mm carbines that use 59-series magazines?

The only one I've found so far is the Keltec Sub-2000, but I'm sure there's got to be more. I'm in the market for a 9mm rifle (cheap ammo), and being able to use the same magazines for both rifle & pistol would be nice.

I think the Marlin camp carbine uses S&W mag's, but they do not make the rifle anymore. Sometimes they show up at gun shows. I have a KEL-TEC that uses glock mags and works great.

the Marlin Camp 9mm has been out of production for about 16 yrs, but a fine carbine if you can find (I have one and a 5906).
a nephew has the KelTec that uses S&W mags and a 915 - it also shoots good and is rated for +P ammo - in fact the manual recommends it.

I have a KelTec Sub2000 to match up with my 59-series guns. Shoots well, is very compact (folds in half) and light. Really nice little carbine. Better after I added a shock-buff. I also picked up some MecGar 17 & 20 round mags (which work as well in my Smith autos as they do in the Keltec) for extra capacity.


I used to own a Marlin Camp9. It was also a fun gun and they pop up a lot on places like gunbroker. Some of them are even NIB. It reminded me of a Ruger 10/22 in 9mm.

Either gun will do what you want it to do, but the former will cost you about 45% less. The latter will be softer shooting and slighly more accurate. Or at least it was in my hands.
