I think you might be mis-using the term carbine.
chevrofreak,
I consider all my semi-autos to be considered a carbine. "Short barreled semi-auto" is considered a carbine. My bolt actions are what I call rifles.

Carbines can also be bolt action, lever action, muzzle-loading, etc. A carbine is a shorter weapon, usually firing a less powerful cartridge than a rifle.
