Shot this for the first time yesterday. Lone Wolf 9" barrel Lone Wolf A-2 comp.
Shooting medium hot (PPU) 10mm I had some feeding problems with my 19lb spring (the brass falls between my feet) and may go back to stock (17lb). For using my normal length .40 conversion barrel I have had gone down to 15lb and 13lb for .40 plus a suppressor. It is a couple inches more portable than my 7" barrel 9mm AR15. Weight is about 1 oz shy of 5 lb with the optic. 
The 20rd Arredondo mag extensions are the only 10mm solutions I have found that are 100% reliable. Mike |

Everyone bags on the Ronis and other glock carbines but 10mm from a 9" barrel will have some serious energy and the thing is in the 4lb range. That's not a bad combo. I give it a thumbs up.

Is there any room at the back of the slide? I have a post sample sear on my 19 and want to do a similar setup.

I have to ask, how much money do you have in that thing including that poor Glock?

PA sight, barrel and all, I would guess around $1500.
+ the $200 stamp

Looks good. Not bad on the price considering what it would take to make a 10/40 AR SBR.

Still much cheaper than a mp5/10mm pistol or sbr.
Good deal man, let us know how she works and what ammo she likes. I'd like to take a 10mm sbr for hog hunting with some nice hard cast loads. |

Poor Glock???
Not at liberty to say what I got the Roni for but it was $50 under dealer price (recently raised) and the dealer honored his origional quote. Owned the G20 (using the slide) since 1993 or 1994 and the G21 (lower) for a few years. Barrel was about $150 with threading. Already owned the PA but that was $79 on sale. Already owned glock springs in several weights. Total price was significaltly less than my 9mm AR upper. The Roni is one of 3 SBR configurations I have for glocks (I have 2 stamped glocks). Can switch between SBR and pistol cinfigurations in minutes. MIke |

$1500??? Good God no! Not even close. Closer to 1/3 than 1/2 that in parts.
.45 supressed as well with most of the supressor inside the Roni. I'll post pictures some time. Very light and handy little carbine. I've found PPU very accurate. I like Buff. Bore but am sick of playing the bullet lottery with them so I order XTPs from Underwood. XTPs and Golden Bullets are too hard for handgun but they open up perfectly at carbine velocity. One of my 10mm configurations is a 13.5" bbl (maxium velocity for Bren-level 180s). Mike |

Mike If you bought it all new now, at today's prices, you would be in that range. |

Which is exactly why I like modularity, esp. when it comes to stamps. I just wish someone made swappable 2/3/4 rd mag tubes for my 870 SBS.

My only issue with pistol-based carbines is the grip angle if you're wanting a super compact setup.
I use a MOE K2 grip on most of my short AR's because the grip is a little more vertical. A Glock fits me just fine at arms length, not so much when it's only 6" from my face. Will probably be even worse for a little while once this cast comes off...

I'm 6'3" and shoot with a traditional bladed stance. I hold my PCCs, ARs, and African-level magnums the same way. I prefer a 13.5-14" LoP and I don't tuck the elbow which is probably why I don't have to deal with that issue. On an AR I use the last position plus an extended butt plate on a military buffer tube and the second to the last position with a civilian buffer tube.
Once thing I noticed about PPCs, is that they have very long LoP, too long for me and I often use short to mid positions on them. It might be because of grip angle. Everyone's anatomy is a little different. Mike |

I've been on the dark side since '93. An old model Mariner is my house gun. The 870 however, has one big advantage in short formats.
