Talk me out of this 9mm upper!

[BIGE7.62]

Ok all you 9mm AR owning pistol goofballs...

What buffer, spacer, spring, and tube are y'all using?

And what are the possibility of purchasing said stuff all in one place...vs needing 2-3-4 different transactions to get it taken care of?

Because I need all that crap and I want to make as few transactions as possible to accomplish it!

Joebob outfitters has everything you need for a 9 mm AR , plus free shipping over a $100

I won't consider a JRC. Too many people have had too many problems with them. One INGOer won't even sell his so he doesn't pass along the problem child to another person - so he's essentially "eaten" the cost of it.

Just the other day, I rec'd my heavy buffer, spring, and pistol buffer tube from Spike's.

And I also found a "black friday" deal on a Burris Fast Fire III for $185 - so I bought that.

So I STILL need an upper... LOL

I may be missing part of the story, but why doesn't he send it in to the factory and have it fixed?

I've shot several JRCs, and have only had issues with 1. Somehow the bolt handle got bent and it was creating drag on the upper. Once it was replaced (JRC sent one free of charge) it ran perfectly.

IIRC, it has been sent back at least once.

Then you keep calling, keep making them pay postage, and keep having them work on it or eventually replace it

That seems to be a Glock-mag specific one.

I don't want one of those.

I already have a standard lower and a mag block that I'll be using. Colt-pattern. I already have 3-4 of the colt SMG mags awaiting.

Time to **** or get off the pot!

Own two 9mm ARs. One a Colt with an A1 upper. The other a Palmetto, with their upper & lower. Both have never failed to feed or eject. Run both fine with Colt style, Palmetto and Colt mags. They digest any brand of 9mm ammo, including Wolf & Brown Bear. 9mm ARs are accurate and way high on the fun scale. Bonus they can also be shot at all indoor range I have ever been to.

Alright people. You all have failed.

I ordered the upper just a few minutes ago.

Now we'll see how long it takes to get here.

And then how long it takes an ignoramus like me to put together a lower.

Are you done yet?

It's easy, use this guide!

I actually thought there was one of these by an INGO'er but my search skills are lacking right now <hands in pockets, kicks rocks>

haven't yet attempted!

I have two small kids... almost zero leisure time.

Want to borrow a lower so you can see what a put together one looks like?
