Re: tell me all the reasons I DONT want this
sounds like it takes gun specific mags. Would be a big selling point if it took the same mags as the HK 45 or 45C. I dont think it does though.

Re: tell me all the reasons I DONT want this
Big problem is they use a specific single stack 10 rd magazine and that is the only choice. It is not a blocked double stack mag that can be unblocked or made to hold more. I think there is someone who made a replacement lower that lets you use USC mags which is how it should be sold.
I will stick with my AR15 in .45 ACP that uses unaltered grease gun mags. 30 rds of .45 ACP is the only way to go.

Re: tell me all the reasons I DONT want this
Still looking for that elusive "to me" pistol caliber carbine that will share mags with a pistol I have. Thought I had it when I bought my henry in 38/357 but the henry was a great disappointment. Dont need one but ...
one day maybe I will find "that" carbine
So this AR15 ... it shoots 45acp? Hmmmm

I have a Stern magwell adapter to use 9mm Glock mags with a Foxtrot Mike upper. Uses a standard lower, FCG, buffer, etc.
One of these days I might actually shoot it...

Re: tell me all the reasons I DONT want this
I'm with you, I've got two ARs in .45, Glock Mags. Waiting for a barrel in 10mm, I already have the BCG, so I can use that lower for another upper.Intel6 wrote: ↑October 6th, 2022, 7:50 am Big problem is they use a specific single stack 10 rd magazine and that is the only choice.

Re: tell me all the reasons I DONT want this
I went with a 8.5" barrel, SBR'd mine, and a Form1 suppressor...well, did the paper work and bought parts to build the suppressor. But, the recent BS with the ATF clowns kinda back burnered that.
Wanted it to be the same OAL as a rifle with the suppressor attached. OH, and why THE F is a Glock barrel thread 1/2-36 instead of 1/2-28 like everyone else?
Also available in .45acp

Well, Colt started that, to prevent retards from hanging 5.56 flash hiders on 9mm barrels. New cottage industry making adapters, .5-36 female to .5-28 male. Also, that tends to differentiate between rifle barrels and pistol barrels. HTH

The SiCo 9mm barrels for my 320 and M&P are both 28. Sure would make sht a bit more simple...

Re: tell me all the reasons I DONT want this
The B & T 45 model APC Pistol is a better choice. Bigger mags for less money. Can brace it or SBR it.
However it too is HK expensive.
