All IJ 9MM carbines are rifles. The receiver itself is not for a firearm, it is the firearm, missing some important other parts though, legally it is the firearm itself. The word carbine would indicate that it is more towards the rifle side of things, but a carbine in itself is a shortened easy handling rifle.

Did Iver Johnson ever manufacture a 30 cal carbine pistol?

The Super Enforcer Model 3000 manufactured only in 1985 and 1986 is a pistol version of the US Carbine, 30 caliber, with an 11 inch barrel. It was re-introduced as the Enforcer with a 10 1/2 inch barrel in 1988 and discontinued in 1993. A great source of information on Iver Johnson firearms is the book by W.E.
