How do you pronounce "carbine"?

[JEBar]

I pronounce it 'byne', 'cause farmers don't drive combeans. just sayin'.

[JEBar]

per Merrian Webster's Collegiate Dictionary 10th Edition ====> bean is the preferred pronunciation


full disclosure, I didn't know that, my wife looked it up ..

[Kissmybrass]

Been.

Take it from a cowboy. Say Bine and we’ll escort you from the bunkhouse.

Best answer lol

[Kissmybrass]

My 20” Model 94 (1911 manufactured) is considered a carbine for that era. Henry considers 20” a rifle, but 16.5” gets my BBSC the carbine designation, while everyone else calls a 16” barrel a “trapper”. It’s all rather subjective.

Oh, and in my mind, it’s bean.

Trapper! Now there's a word ya can't @#$% up!

[Redthies]

Beanless chili is unamerican.

My “race” chilli is just meat and peppers. My homestyle chilli has beans along with the beef, serranos, onions etc.

If the barrel gets short enough, the rifle becomes a pistol. One of mine has a 10" barrel, and has Pistol Use Only stamped on the frame.
But then THAT would be another post.

Then of course, there are the Axe and the Mare's Leg...
Not rifles, not pistols, NOT shotguns.
Firearms.
