9mm AR vs .300 Blackout

[fledge]

you guys have it all wrong. the issue with 9mm ARs is they are making the LOWER fit the 9mm and not the upper. I'm waiting for someone to make a proprietary 9mm upper that works on a standard AR lower and has mags that are the shape of a 30rd 5.56 mag. L

I'd get behind that. And the magazine as an insert that goes in a standard pmag. This can't be that hard.

CMT's upper will be an original design around the 9mm. If only it worked with an SSA lower...

I don't care how proprietary the upper parts are, i just don't want to have to change anything with the lower except maybe a buffer and spring. and it has to work with geissele triggers. if i was smarter, rich, and knew mechanical engineering and CAD better than the two classes i took in solidworks 99 i'd develop it myself.

BINGO! If that ever came to market there wouldn't even be a question. I would be all over it. Truth be told I was thinking the exact same thing this whole time but since it's not available...

I want to know the answer to that as well. Why can't they fit a 9mm insert or whatever into a regular AR mag where it fits on a standard lower? I wish someone could answer that question because that is the ultimate solution.

I'd imagine that would cost as much as a dedicated mag. Might be easier and better quality to make the whole mag dedicated to the caliber

I meant like to make a mag with the same dimensions as a PMag or a steel mag for an AR but do like was mentioned earlier... have be be like the .22LR mags where they can fit a standard lower.



There has to be a way to do it like that only in 9mm.

Yeah maybe. But for us with grandfathered standard capacity mags, we'd be part of the market.

[Joelski]

Tsk-tsk. You need to grieve and reconcile the fact that there won't be a "grandfathered" anything the way things are going.

[fledge]

Reconciled. P

Yet the point about mags will be the same point about the firearms under discussion. So let's do the mags along with a good AR9 system.

That makes me want to go back to playing with knives... []

Sorry, the to me, the AK is like Tori Spelling. Proof that no amount of money, or alteration can make something pretty.

This is why I went with the CMT 9mm. AR inspired, but built as a dedicated 9mm.

Agreed. The CMT is calling. Is there a release date yet?

Should know more at the NWFF late this month. That's when they plan to do the official announcement of it.

[fledge]

I hope their initial production is high enough to meet demand. Definitely let us know UW when you find out.

[Joelski]

^This!

That stuff always drops in between charge cycles for the toy account!

Didn't Olympic Arms make a 9mm sized simunition paint ball thing that used a magazine like that? I'm thinking back about 2000.
