Those look very nice. Any speculation on price? They're about the same as the DDLES lowers were price wise. $275. |

I have been told that the logo has been moved to the bottom of the trigger guard. I will see if I can get a picture next week. That's good. It may look silly between the trigger pins like that with KNS pins covered half. |

Looking forward to seeing these on sale. Anyone have a line on Glock-cut 9mm bolts? JP has a 9mm bolt that comes cut for Glock mags. Picked mine up from them for $250. This! You can get it for $238 from Brownells, that's where I got mine. |

Noobish ?, but here goes. As far as a 45 bolt for the Glock/Kriss mags, where would you get one? I have done a little digging but not finding anything.

Pretty much the solution is to go with a DI upper...the only production 45 blowback upper I know of is an Olympic Arms and they are incompatable with the Quartercircle10 lower. The will run...but you'll have to remove the ejector and last round bolt hold open from the lower as the Olympic ejector interferes with both.
The best option in my humble opinion  is a DI upper
Send me an email if you'd like more information. here is a pic of one I built for myself............

According to the law, the engraving requirement is that of the manufacturer of the lower. The manufacturer of the lower is QC10, not your trust. You are going to be registering it as X. You aren't manufacturing anything. Therefore, no need to engrave it. |

<snip> No need to hold off......it'll be a retrofit option.....and if it requires minor machine work to install.....we'll be offering that service..... Outstanding! I've got a DDLES lower that I use as a DIAS host that I had to remove the BHO transfer bar from. It kept locking the bolt back in the middle of mags and I found it less frustrating to just not have it. I can still manually engage the bolt hold open, so it's been "good enough", but it'd be nice to have it working for real. I live just north of Atlanta and am looking forward to meeting you at the HTF shoot in October. -bob |

As much as these lowers cost not to mention the total cost to build a 9mm AR, the BHO should be fully functional from the factory. If it doesn't come as a fully functioning part, it should not be sold by the manufacturer. In what other industry do manufacturers sell products that they know only work half the time and people continue to buy... |

Just ordered mine without the logo on the side. I called and talked to the owner before placing my order, great guy, great customer service! Spoke highly of Mad-Machinist. Looking forward to your retrofit BHO.!.!.
After placing my order, I was calling my brother to tell him about Quarter Circle 10, but accidentally called QC10 back and quickly hung up after realizing what I did. A few seconds later I received a call from QC10 saying he had a missed call and was returning the call. I explained to him what had just happened and he laughed and said he would look my order up for me while I was on the phone just to make sure everything was ok with it! That is A+ customer service! I will tell everyone I know about this company!!! |
