Stop spending money on more guns you don't need anon. Most of /k/ doesn't even shoot because they spent all their money on guns.

>I bought a S&W FPC Carbine [9MM] as my first "rifle"
Big mistake, a PCC is just a handgun that is easy to shoot and suppress; it may be good enough for home defense but it still has handgun performance.
>should I just stick with my current rifle
No. One should always have a real rifle. PCCs are great but niche.
>invest more money into training
Always yes.
>is making the jump to 5.56NATO justified?
Honestly, you sound like you're struggling financially; keep in mind you don't have to buy it all at once. Train with what you have and get the upgrade later.

Git gud with the FPC and get the rifle later. There are worse things than having a carbine that shares ammo & magazines with your handgun.

>>65082146
Yeah, you fucked up bro. If you can't afford a real rifle right now then it's not the end of the world but you really should upgrade when you can.

you arent gonna 'train', you are just going to stand at the range and shoot a target 200 times then leave.

FPC is a good carbine for plastic, but it's still a PCC. It'll do for SHTF if your plan is to hunker down at home and fend off the occasional break-in or if you're planning to backpack deep innawoods.
But >>65082222 is right if you're planning on anything like serious combat. You'd be a significant disadvantage against a proper rifle (even intermediates running 5.56, lol). Your competition will have longer range, more power per shot, better armor penetration, and more rounds per magazine.
Go ahead and use it train for basic proficiency, get an AR-15 or better when you can. Once you've secured that consider getting a 22LR of similar style so you can practice 10x as much.

Use the gun you have to acquire all the guns you want.
Remember the one who shoots first wins. The mistake that nearly all criminals make is thinking a gun is a magic wand that forces people to do what you want if you wave it around. If you instead just shoot your target they can't resist since they're dead.
