I am not usually a big fan of pistol caliber carbines... HOWEVER
the .40 is pretty much the perfect PCC caliber
I had a Ruger Police Carbine that was the best camp gun I ever owned.
I've recounted this story on the forums before, but back when you could get a hundred round value pack of .40 for like 17 bucks you could stop by the store on your way into the woods and shoot as much as you wanted all trip long.
That gun took squirrels, rabbits, hogs, coyote, and various other nuisance critters over the years, although I was always hesitant to try it on deer, I am pretty sure that it would do the job.
The way I see it is if 180 grain BALL will take down a medium sized feral hog out of an 18 inch barrel, then that works for me.
I love that gun. Still in the family, just not mine any more. Miss her.
But yeah, .40 is great for PCCs.
Thanks for all of the replies and insight everyone. The Yugo I have seems to be good quality, but like was mentioned it doesn't have chrome lined barrel and it is heavier than the Russian and Chinese variants I have fired. I think now the fellow wants $250 boot. Im not budging

Love those Combloc guns
At least the Yugo will retain if not go up in value. It is an import, subject to restrictions down the line if the government/ATF decides to ban it without our consent, was built and issued for the military, history behind it, and reliable (if using the right ammo, preferably brass-cased).
The JRC is your run-of-the-mill American carbine that will be available anytime, anywhere being legal in most states/legalities plus as some said the quality can be hit-or-miss plus being a pistol carbine looses some of it's stopping power but will be cheaper to plink with.
You will get more money selling the SKS than you would selling the JRC.

You got lucky. The JRC in .40 and .45 is not a good weapon IMO, they are blowback and the olbt/buffer/spring mass is not sufficient in my experience for those rounds. The 9mm one is even too light for reliable function when you add a suppressor.
I agree with FPS. Keep the Yugo. I miss mine badly.
