SBR 9mm AR

[czar]

Hello,

Has anybody out there done a SBR 9mm AR? What length barrel did you go with? Later I will suppress it.

Most people will go with 5" or 6" as it will keep most ammo subsonic. I have a 4" because it was a great deal.

You have a 4" ar-15? Can you post a picture?

Waiting for the pistol length handguard before I start construction. I will post pics as soon as it is done. It will be 9mm. I have a 5" .22 upper also.

If I wait to suppress it, looks like the going length of barrel is 10.5-in long for a SBR.

10.5 is kinda standard on 223 because of the pressue, errosion on a suppressor, etc. If your suppressing a 9, get as short as you want.

NOT dogging your choice in platforms. LOTS of folks have SBR AR's in 9mm and they are a hoot. But...when I was looking to do this last year, I went the Uzi route instead. Have not SBR'd it yet but my research showed it was the cheapest and most reliable system out there for SBR in 9mm. All it is is an approximate $120.00 barrel switch after the paperwork is done.

Just a thought but I'm about ready to submit my paperwork and get that show on the road. The one's I've fired have been just a super super fun shooting machines that eat any ammo and are pretty indifferent to dust and gunk. Same is true of this platform in 16" length but when down to "real Uzi" size, it's just gonna be that much better.

Just a thought.

A member here let me shoot his silenced sbr mini uzi at the bash and it was AWESOME!

Do you build your Uzi or buy a completed one? By the way, I am looking at build an Uzi on a Nodak Spud receiver along with the AR 9mm. Looks like I can use Uzi mags for both with alittle modification.

It would be cheaper to buy an uzi complete than to build it one part at a time. But if you are up for a project build it's fun and not hard to do. You can still find the AR magwell adapter around that takes unmodified uzi mags ( HY-TECH) is the company. Still waiting on my parts for my 9mm AR project. This is my SBR mini uzi that 03protege is talking about.

I looked for a VM HY-TECH adapter, but no luck, .i.e. like a needle in a haystack. I think I will be going the dedicated 9mm lower route w/ a DDLES, CMMG, or RRA lower.
