see usmachinegun.com, they sell slightly modified PAM2 mags, which are supposed to be the best option.

i just picked up an M11A1 in 380, it only came with 1 mag so i'm looking to pick up at least 2 more but i'm not sure which ones to get. i'm not going to put too much into the 380 as i will be buying a Lage upper in 9mm to do 95% of my shooting with, are there mags that work with both calibers? i've seen mags on line from $30 each up to $90 each and i'm new to the MAC world so i'm not sure which to get. i would also like to get 1 of the huge mags like a 50rd one or is there anyone who makes a drum for this caliber?

I have an 83 vintage m11/9 I bought a bunch of spares while waiting on the paperwork. I have yet to use the first one. I did have to tweak the feed ramp. mine still has the flat whack you in the forehead cocking knob. Mine was used and sten converted .

Can an M11 in .380 be converted to run in 9mm?

No. There were attempts to make M11's in 9mm, but the frame couldn't handle it. That's what led to the elongated frame of the M11/9.

Lage makes a 9mm upper for a .380 MAC that is supposed to run and not tear it up. Faster cyclic rate bit people seem to like them. It has to be an SWD though so that It will take 11/9 sized mags.

Wrong answer . Len at Historic Arms did one M11a1' converted to 9mm and is Glock mag converted as well . I shot it . I even have a pic on my facebook. . I ran shockingly fast but runs great . leaves you with a smile

Yes they are reliable. I love mine!

Mine runs 100% with 9mm stock and with the Lage conversion.

The .22lr kit is being broken in, and as such is not 100% reliable yet.

Mine is Sten converted and is as reliable (or more so) as post sample factory MG's I've shot.

Just picked up...I'll not mention the price lest I be lynched out of jealousy...an SWD M11/9 85000XXXX (& Bowers CAC-9) from an estate sale. Along with it came seven (7) Cobray Zytel magazines, one of which seems to be having some feed lip issues. I have ordered a Lage Max-11 with 750rpm bolt and side folding stock. It has run flawlessly.

1. Should I install the feed lip inserts as a preemptive strike?
2. Should I order the Lage sear and extractor, or would that be a case of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it?"
3. Are there any buffers that are better than the others?
4. Who are some recommended M11/9 gunsmiths?
5. Is there a "one-stop shop" for all of my M11/9 needs/wants?
6. Any other recommendations?

Sure, I have a long wait for the Form 4s to come back, but I have access to the gun when it is in the transferor's possession and I wouldn't mind getting some of this out of the way before BATFE approval comes back.

I would definitely do the sear, don't wait for it to go bad. My stock sear failed in under 1k rounds ('86 gun) and almost caused an accident when it went.

As soon as my form 4 comes back I will disprove that.Should be any day now...there was an error on my paperwork about 2 weeks ago, Correction was sent out so I should have it soon. I bought a M11A1 with two uppers one in .380 and the other in 9mm....

Anybody with a line on M10 9mm barrels please post or IM.

I'm going nuts trying to find one in stock.
