How big is your night stand?

The drawer on mine barely holds a pistol, wallet, wedding ring and bible like any other true red blooded American.

what are you thoughts on a 9mm conversion? should i get a dedicated lower? Or get a drop in? Which drop in, some are like 50$ and some are $200. Im reading colt mag is better due to geometry but glocks are more popular because of well, you know, the glock homers.

i have a unused lower that i could make it a dedicated 9mm but i would have to get another pistol brace because im looking at a 5.5" or 7.5" barrel.

I have an alert set up for 9mm uppers and every day 22Mods4All is posting uppers for 159 which sounds like a great deal until you read it doenst have a BCG.

Also, i plan to put my octain 45 on it when i eventually get to apply for the tax stamp. Still no word on it transfering to my dealer.

11.5". I wouldn't go any lower for 5.56 (although SOCom has a 10.3" M4).

They are better for home defense than shotguns or handguns.

not much is better.

I have an AK and a .300blk and a 6.5 grendel.

I have a 10.5" barrel on a pistol build it stays in my truck. It's a lot of fun to shoot.

I have 8" (300 BO), 10.3" and 11.5". 11.5 is my go-to all purpose gun and the suppressed 8 is my bump in the night gun. 10.3 still shoots extremely well, I just tend to like the 11.5 a little more so it gets lost in the shuffle.

I have a SBR dedicated 9mm. Best advice I can give you is get the Spikes 9mm Buffer ST-9X. It is designed to run in 9mm AR. Worth every penny.

I bought a CMMG MK9 and put a 4.5" ADCO barrel on it. I run a TIrant 9 Suppressor. I was having feeding issues with it at first. I bought the Spikes Buffer and it runs like a top now.

What bolt is in that. Im reading you can either have the heavy 9mm bolt and run a normal carbine buffer or use the lighter weight 9mm bolt and use a heavy 9mm buffer.

Im assuming the MK9 is a dedicated 9mm lower.

yep.... i want my 9mm to look like that. I like my 10.5" blkout, but i want my 9mm to be shorter with the supressor.

Picked up two Gen 3 Noveske lowers to Form 1 while the wait is short. Good lord they are the finest lowers I've ever owned or worked with. The ease with which the takedown and pivot pins and trigger are installed, the machining, I know people always say "mil spec is mil spec!", but at least when it comes to Noveske, it's worth the extra cash.
