    Better than the 22AR15. Not quite as cheap to shoot, but feels like you're actually shooting a real gun.

    First I want to compliment your are your build it looks great.
    2nd Do you have or have you heard any feedback on the PSA Dedicated 9mm lowers? I have been kicking around the idea and this post keeps nudging me.

    3rd, Not sure why but I am not seeing any Thread Pictures this AM but I will concur with the previous post. Your pictures are very good. I have an Galaxy 5 as well and mine suck.

    Thanks
    Steve

    Belated "thanks" - I missed this post.

    I have no knowledge of the PSA 9mm lowers. I'm always confused by their 9mm stuff because the way I read the description, it led me to believe that you must use a PSA upper with the PSA lower - but I may have just misunderstood. Either way, I don't know, but if I were doing this for the first time and didn't already have a lower on hand to work with like I did here, I'd get a dedicated 9mm lower. The mag blocks work and they allow you to utilize a standard lower and/or change calibers later, but if you KNOW you are sticking with a 9mm it's probably cheaper to get a dedicated lower - mag blocks are not cheap - I just lucked out with mine for $30.

    Anyone use steel case ammo in their 9mm AR15?

    Any cons aside from filth?

    Hard on parts?

    I have, it's better than aluminum but I'll stick with brass as it's the most reliable in my 9mm's

    I have one of their forged Glock mag lowers. I haven't had time to build it out yet, but it seems very well made. They recommend using their uppers, but I really don't know if it matters or not. I plan on at least using their bolt carrier group if I go with a different brand upper.

    Took some pics yesterday.

    Current configuration. That sight may or may not stay on it. I was having trouble with it shutting off after each shot on my x39 carbine, but it didn't do it after moving it to this 9mm - yet. If it does it again, it gets moved to the 22 - or the trash.

    Differences from last photos:
    SightMark red dot
    New grip (MFT stopped making them in the grey that matches the stock)
    Sig fore grip and mini hand stop
    Flashlight
    Frank Proctor sling

    Those mags just look goofy on an otherwise awesome-looking gun. You need this: https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/...-56-magazines/

    No. Those mags are the way they were meant to be.
    Glock mags are gay and those prosthetic mags aren't much better.
    LOL
