My dad who was a corporal in the WW2 USAAF was issued an M1 carbean and that's what he called it and so do I.

[Enfield47]

you say tomato I say tomaato...


let's call the whole thing off!

(who the heck says tomaato?)


this is just me but I say..

Car-bean and Gur-Rand and they may both be wrong.
I just think what would one soldier say to the other in World War II from one foxhole to thee other about bringing a rifle over.

( the only 2 that bother me personally are when people
mis pronounced the word "ask" or the word "especially". but please let's not go there.)

Ha, ha good one.

I've always heard it pronounced car-bean so that how I say it.

Carg-bin, clearealee.

[Ronin2]

You can always pronounce carbine as "AR platform" cuz it sure as **** aint no RIFLE!

[SoberClurichaun]

+1 for car bean

[MongooseV8]

Pretty sure the english language rules dictate the ine to be said car bine. Wine pine dine fine line vine nine ect. When you introduce culture and social aspects words get confused and integrated into acceptable versions other than the original. I say carbean but believe car bine is technically correct.

Carbine that rhymes with sign, because if you say Car-bean this is what people think of you:


Also applies if you say Coyote as "Koi-yowt" and not "Kai-yo-tee"
