This "Gun of the Week" video from American Rifleman showcases the Wilkinson Arms Linda 9mm Carbine. The review details its design, inspired by 1960s-80s aesthetics, featuring a blowback-operated, semi-automatic action. Key components highlighted include a 6061 T6 aluminum receiver, a 16.5-inch barrel with 1/2x28" muzzle threads, a reciprocating handle, a simple vertical grip, a crossbolt safety, a wood fore-end, and a folding stock with a Picatinny mount. The carbine accepts 31-round stick magazines and has provision for optics. The video offers an on-range look at the firearm.

The Wilkinson Arms 'Linda' is a 9mm semi-automatic pistol with a unique telescoping bolt design, similar to the Uzi, allowing for a compact form factor. Originally manufactured in Parma, Idaho, by Ray Wilkinson's company, it features aluminum receivers for weight savings and proprietary magazines. Despite its accuracy, the pistol is noted for being heavy for its size and utilizes a hammer-fired, simple blowback action.
