sorry, I had a bad day, please accept carbine patty as a token of apology
the m1 carbine was the product of the american army in search of a light rifle.
the select-fire carbines are therefore appropriately classified as light assault rifles.
if you follow this line of thought the answer to ops question is yes, but it is a light assault rifle, reflecting the less than intermediate muzzle energy.

the next question is: is the carbine a carbine? the barrel length is longer than the sturmgewehr.
