Pistol carbine suggestions

[VAspeedgoat]

So I just won a $500 gift certificate to my local gun shop and I'm thinking of getting a pistol caliber carbine. I'd love to have a .45 acp for a little thump and the option to maybe upgrade to a .460 Rowland as well. I've been thinking of the Ruger LC carbine and the TNS aero survival pistol/rifle. Though a quick search has lead to some concerns on the aero. Do any of you guys have experience with either? Are there some in similar price range (6-800) I'm missing?

Ruger LC in 10mm is a great camp gun. With the right loads a bear defense gun.

Big fan of my CZ Scorpion but maybe a touch above your price range. The Ruger PC9 with the M-lok handguard looks vaguely like a PPSh-41, so added cool pointers there. Most of GunTube is hot and heavy over the new Springfield Kuna (check out HonestOutlaw's review, for instance) but I've not personally shot one.
