A friend of mine had a Colt Lightning many years ago that had a deluxe, pistol grip, rifle stock. The entire front end of the gun was a normal 20" carbine. It had no saddle ring. The factory letter said it was a pistol gripped rifle with 20" barrel. That's the closest I can come. Bill
the letters A & B denote minor factory changes
A carbine is a type of rifle.
Depends on which carbine. No one carbine, no one answer.
A carbine is a shorter version of a rifle. Named after a mounted French soldier that carried a shorter rifle- a Carabeiner.

Adaptive combat rifle. i think... Or it might be "Automatic carbine rifle", because the ACR is a carbine, and it's automatic.
It depends.. if you have a carbine length barrel and will be using it on a rifle with a carbine length barrel, then yes. If you took it from a rifle with a rifle length barrel, and are putting it on a rifle with a carbine length barrel, then it won't function properly.
'la longue carabine' means the long carbine (single-barreled rifle).
A carbine is generally a rifle with a shorter barrel to make it easy to carry or to use indoors or from inside vehicles. (Example: M16 rifle; M4 carbine. Same basic weapon except one barrel is several inches shorter. Sometimes a "carbine" will also mean a weapon that looks like a rifle but shoots pistol-caliber ammunition or other weaker ammo. Example: M1 Garand .30 rifle; M1 .30 carbine (the carbine is several inches shorter, a few pounds lighter, and fires a much smaller weaker round, intended for close-range use only).
By definition, a carbine is a short rifle. The standard M-16 has a 20" barrel, while the M-4 has a 16" barrel. A number of US Rifles have had carbine versions, with the notable exceptions being the M-1903 and the Rifle, .30 M-1.
A carbine is a rifle with a relatively short barrel. If you have a carbine receiver it's for a rifle. There are lots of 9mm carbines out there. Here is a link to some photos http://images.google.com/images?svnum=10&hl=en&lr=&q=9mm+carbine&btnG=Search Hope that helps.
