    Exclamation It's called a carbine, not a bush pig.

    I just wanted to bring attention to the trend of referring to a shortened down hunting rifle as a bush pig.

    I'm not sure where people got this "BushPig" fad from, but enough's enough now, can we all kindly go back to calling a carbine for what it is.

    A PSA on behalf of everyone this drives nuts when reading posts here.
