If I was going to go the 9mm route I would have to go with Colt stick mags as the angle on the Glock mags looks retarded in my opinion but I'm plenty happy with my 300blk . That being said my next project is cutting down a 20in 44 mag lever gun to 16.5 to thread for a can

I'm not gonna lie... I wish SOMEBODY would make a 9mm mag for one of the things that isn't fugly.
I guess making mags is a little more complicated than I thought.
I guess I could just get a 50 or 100 round drum mag and see how that looks. It could have that tommy gun look to it maybe.
That honestly is one big plus for the Sig. Even though I don't know the whole set up and system to it yet, at least their mags aren't ugly as sin.

It's the same bullet as .308, so if you did both, you'd still be in a 9 mm scenario of sharing at least the most expensive part.

Oh, and sear packs only run 8k-10k. You could buy those for $200 apiece before the 86 ban....

And I think we should take a crook and shoot him from 3 yards to get real world CQ terminal ballistics input.

Want this one. Looks 10x better than the Glock mags IMO.

I don't want to get shot with a water gun filled with two week old dog pee but it doesn't necessarily make it a great option for HD use
And Alamo, you gotta call it 300 BLK before you get into one.
My take on it: if it's a plinking/range toy, I'd go 9mm all day long. I have a .308, so I can hunt with that or my 5.56 ARs (with the right ammo). I have suppressors and I reload, but have no desire to handload for a new caliber and have to worry with converting 5.56 brass or buying 300 BLK brass, and I don't have a need for the increased ballistics of suppressed 300BLK vs a subsonic 9mm since I'm not using it for HD or hunting. 300BLK is the answer to a question I personally never asked. So for me personally, 9mm would fit the niche. But, if someone out there would like a multi purpose hunting, defense, and suppressed shooting round, can afford to buy the ammo or can load it themselves, then 300BLK is a great way to fill a lot of different shoes with one rifle.
I'd go with Glock mags just due to availability. I already have a bunch so it makes sense. If I had Colt mags laying around, I'd go that route. The economy of the choice and maximizing the utility of what I already have is the only driving factor...not appearance.

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. similar to how the 22lr mags are the same size. 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.
