I shot one a couple of years ago and it was great fun
I do not have an FAC so its a hanger for now but I do plan on getting one in the future and this is one I will most certainly plan on shooting when I do.

Also there are a few carbines in the upcoming Holts Auction. Though one is a kyber pass copy, another a commercial gun and the best one is a IC1 artillery carbine (wrongly listed as a cavalry carbine). I have an IC1 artillery carbine which is in shootable condition (mint bore but pitting under barrel but due to thickness I dont this this is an issue. Would still get it checked before I shoot it though) and a BSA commercial carbine which is in a sorry state (missing breech block and bore is fuzzy, but with some work it might be a shooter since there is less pitting on the underside of the barrel then the IC1).
