Ron Williams modified a LineWolf 9mm lower for me to accept a Glock 30, 21, 21 with Kriss Extension for 30 rounds. The Grease Gun feeds with the magazine at a straight up angle. Even if you get the Glock Mags to fit, the feed angle is wrong.

Question. Do the grease gun mags have to be modified to be used in the bazooka bros lower?

If its in stock shouldnt all you have to do it put it in a box and in the mail??? |

Well in leu of all that at DDLES, I'm wondering if Ron Williams could do something with a lower that would allow one of the Glock large frame mags to be fit...safely... or is that DDLES lower a dedicated Glock large frame mag casting?

It's dedicated. They make a colt SMG mag lower and now a small and large frame glock mag lower |

OK so I'm about to order my DDLES large frame glock mag lower. Where can I order a plain 45acp barrel from. Just regular blow back 16" barrel. A stainless one wouldn't be to bad either but not gonna be picky. Also what thread are they as I'm gonna have to find a brake for it and or have it cut down and re-threaded.
Also do standard A2 front sights fit the barrels? Think I may do this a middy A2 iron sight build |

Does anyone know if there other polymer lowers besides CAV that can accept .45 GG mags with the Hahn adaptor? Just saw these available (yes, lowers in stock!) and wondering if they would work with my RMW upper and the Hahn block. Once I got my RMW upper back, I decided I needed a lower with a SOPMOD stock (the ugly CAV OD lower I had just does not do it justice - like wagon wheels on a Ferrari
 )

A few days ago I ordered a BAZ45 lower, and now im looking for an upper. Does any one know if RMWXtreme sells barrel, bolt, gas tube and gas blocks or do you need to buy a complete upper
Or I have a 8000 series super bolt thats .473 and a matching barrel extention ( was for a wildcat ) if i could send them to some one to have a DI made? Thank you, KLeptoLee |

Bolt will have to be opened just a little.......473 will work...but can cause malfunctions with a lot of .45 ammo as the Sammi max on the base dimension is actually .480.....barrel extension should work no problem,,,it will have to be ramped.......but it isn't different enough from a standard extension that is should cause any issues.

Since this is the 45 ACP conversion guide I thought this would be a good place for this.
I had someone lodge a bullet in his brl & buldge it. I rebareled it for him & wonderd about the bad brl. I cut it down to remove any issues & was left with a 3.5" brl. Opened the port a little & put a wolf reduce power spring in there to be sure it would run. Sure enough it ran. Clocked it at a little over 760rpm. You wont see many of these around 3.5" DI45 I was running VVN320 & N330. Avg velocity was 730fps with a 230HB |

Which gas system should I use? Pistol? Carbine? This is a 16" barrel, so obviously carbine length is perfect. Thanks! |

I wonder how it would run and sound with a full sized (or over sized for that matter) suppressor attached to it. |

Has anyone built a piston driven AR45 upper? I would ideally like a 7.5" pistol without a buffer tube. Or are there physical characteristics that would prevent this from functioning properly?

Ron,
I reload this round. There is some factory ammo out there, but at ridiculous prices. With this round you can load at 100% case capacity with medium powders, and of course at 25% case density with Red Dot or the like. I can reload this cartridge to suit the rifle, but reliability is number 1. Also, I don't currently have a pistol in this caliber, and don't plan on getting one. I can reload to rifle pressures only without concern of my accidentally using it in as pistol. |

For supressed I run 6g VV N330 with same bullets. This load also works great without a can. |

The baz lower just needs the mag catch cut. The reason i prefer the Baz is I can set the mag a little higher in the lower for flawless feeding. I have put quite a few CNC lower builds together for customers & the feedlips will need to be opened up some so they feed right. With the mag up front in the magwell the rounds will need to release a little early for proper function. I also make block & GG mags that fit in std lowers if you have one SBRd & want to run a shorter brl. |

+1 on the lack of need for mod to the mags with CNC lowers.It is the platform I primarily build on and with the feed ramp I've developed it is pretty much plug and play.
