I agree. I just hope someone comes out with a decent trigger for the thing. 11-13 pounds isn't cutting the mustard.
Is there anyway to gunsmith polish it. Hard to believe they don't have anything for it yet

Yeah, and there are some reduced weight spring kits out there but from what I've heard they're all pretty meh. I'm hoping for Timney to come out with a drop in module in the $125 range.

Timney starts with T that's Two hundred starting out

Shooters Element flat trigger and reduced weight spring kits would work for now though.

my sbr 9mm is convertible to 5.56 in about a minute. it uses colt mags.

they don't make a mag well insert for a standard ar-15 lower than will accept Glock mags to my knowledge.

I don't care about looks either.

I'll send it home with your old lady.


For real though, if I had Glocks I would have built my SBR with a Glock mag lower. It would be kinda dumb not to.
See I don't have a single glock, never have. But it really caught my attention to have a dedicated lower, mainly being that it is one less part to worry about. But on that note I may get a Glock now since I got the mags.


Also make sure to wash them before you send them over this time or at least shower before you wear them. Thanks

Mine is a dedicated 9mm lower. And it's metal. With metal mags...

I'm with @Strider12 on this one. The Glock mag angle in an ar looks ridiculous. I went Colt for aesthetics and because I just like the idea of having metal mags. And I hate Glocks.


Plus with Glock mags you can't stand it up like this for photo ops. Isn't that right @Leshaire ?

I also went for aesthetics but amn kicking myself now. Id prefer the glock mags because i have a million of them and the ability to use mags in multiple guns is always great and makes me have to stockpile less mag types. But yeah it def wouldnt stand up like that on a glock mag
