Hey all, new here and I have been in the pursuit of a new rifle to do tactical training drills, forward fire movements and for shooting in general. I've been wanting something with a cheaper round and something easily found and bought. During my search there have been many guns but all have pro's and con's but I couldn't make up my mind.
So now I'm looking into an AR..I want to shoot 9MM. That's what all of my handguns and carry pistols are chambered in. For me it makes since to shoot a cartridge i fire through everything else, helps reloading costs too .
With this I'm wanting to buy a lower, either a standard lower and use a block or plop the little extra cash for the 9mm CMMG lower. But the only thing that I dont like is that in the future i couldnt just re change to another caliber so the run of the mill lower is looking like the better option. If I were to purchase a SBR Upper (looking into 7.5"<) will it run onto the standard lower fine, other than a buffer spring change and plug spacer from spikes will all be okay (well and a mag block). I plan to do my paperwork for the SBR soon, get my lower engraved and start the waiting process..
The reason for the short rifle is hell it looks awesome, but i usually only engaged in drills out to around 150 feet on the long shots so the short barrel with 9mm should be a great compact combo.
