bad ass! whats it like with silencer on it????
as far as someone asked about the cz75 mags, dunno if that was a mistake or if the earlier ones had different catch, but the one i have circa late 2017 came with berretta mag catch.... i plan to mod some cz75 mags to have same catch area, and then they will lock in.... not super ideal, as they wanna catch on the higher cz75 cutout before teh beretta lower mag catch cutout....i have fired it with cz75 mags feeding it just not locked in.... will post sometime |

$449 @ grab a gun.
Wish to see some more activity on this little gun. I think it has alot of potential. I personally would like to see a Colt SMG mag adapter and some better forearms made for it. |

I just picked up a PAK 9 and added an SB brace with a Tromix adaptor.
This is a nice pistol, no malfunctions on first range trip, grouped well with el cheapo 115 gr. Blazer & Perfecta. Nice trigger too, almost as good as a RAK-1. I’m running Beretta mags, good snug fit and holding the mag doesn’t cause misfeeds. The stock grip looks awkward to me but actually feels pretty good, but I already had a US Palm grip in the parts bin. So I’m running that. I know this weighs the same as my Draco AK pistol but it feels lighter, recoil is pretty mild. Threw a cheap red dot on it, curious to see how the railed cover holds zero. I did pull the plastic pic rails off the side of the ‘gas block’. I hope someone makes an aftermarket rail that fits on top, I’d prefer to mount a red dot there. The Stormwerkz hand guard looks good, but I put on a Stark angled grip and replaced the factory hand stop with an IWC hand stop. |

We are going to have a rail that fits on top of the 'gas block' in about a month or so, have to catch up on some other parts first.

yea, I feel ya, I run colt smg mags in my 9mm AR pistol and if anyone had a PAK 9 adaptor for those I'd buy one. But they're double stack feed mags.
But the whole point of this pistol is to use mags you probably already have lying around. Would be nice if it had an optional 'angled grip' that surrounded the mag, or an extension to the mag adaptor, something to grab on to without shifting the mag. FWIW I also have an ATI GSG MP-40 9mm and the mags are 30 round double to single feed mags, all steel bodies with an overinsertion collar. It'd be a much cooler looking mag and at $30-$40 a pop the same as 30 round Beretta 92 type mags. Kinda surprised I haven't seen any pics of a PAK 9 with a 50 round Glock drum yet. |

Shot mine today, didn't seem to like the 30 round beretta magazine I brought, but worked fine with the 20 and 17's. Fun little gun, glad I bought it. Now to brace it and thread it and see how much money a $450 gun can cost. Geez did ammo fly through it quickly. More time loading than shooting.
Only thing I can add to the info is that since I have a lot of Beretta magazines, I didn't get the Glock adapter, so lack G26 size mags... So I chopped one of the stupid 10 rounders up. I can fit 7 in it, but then it won't fit the gun. 6 worked fine. I could take it apart and trim spring or something, but meh, it's a novelty so that's fine. 
Oh, one thing, I was going to take the little side rails off, the first came off but the others seemed to strip. I was using some random torx thing since I don't have a bunch of torx, so does anyone know what the proper size is before I try again? Also, did anyone shoot suppressed yet? |

Curious if anyone has any experience with the Chiappa AR Adapter offering. They are currently showing as out of stock but when I called they had inventory. Price point was $20.

Looks thick like the Stormwerkz one, I'm not sure if I'll go that way or Tromix or... I dunno. Need something for a brace.
Got the stormwerkz mag well adapter adapter, nicely made and fits TIGHT. Didn't get his fore-end, I think I just want something that takes up the little gap of barrel between block and frame. Just something to mount a handstop to.  Attached File |

I have had one for a few months.
About 350 rounds through it with a little 1x prism scope. I have a WC AR9 coming so I have converted my CX4 to PX4 magazines and ordered the Glock magwell for it. It’s an AK. It has the ergonomics, sights, etc. that go with that. What is a good alignment tool/ 1/2 x 28 barrel threading die kit for this? I have tried other’s PSA AR9s and Ruger carbines for Glock mag PCCs. I have had a sub 2K for about a decade and now this. In the absence of a True Glock carbine, what we really need is a an Evo or MCX that takes Glock magazines. And curved 35-40 round flock mags. Edit- I am not a huge fan of mag adapters. I do have a few guns with them. Including another AK pistol in 5.56 that takes AR mags. I am wait8ng on Bonesteel or PSA to finally come out with their Galil/AK type folding braces. I hate AR buffer tube tube stocks and braces on AKs. Hell, even if someone bought a ton of VZ58 folding stocks on the cheap and turned the end into a brace I would be cool with that. |

If I were gonna do that, I'd make an adaptor for PPSH mags. Single feed already. Not hard to find for $25.
Assuming that PPSH mags would run 9mm as reliably as my PPS43 7.62x25 mags run 9mm in my PPS43c. BTW PPS43 mags are double feed. But I'm good with Beretta mags, plenty of cheap surplus M9 mags, reliable factory 30s and cheap aftermarkets. |

well, mines threaded, turned down barrel to the OD i wanted on lathe, then ran a die on it.... didnt get any baffle failures, but they were kissed by bullets...not my finest moment...
as far as sound, still kinda loud. shooting in my "sileage pit" so sound maybe doesnt disperse as much as usual... i wonder if i could run heavier springs to keep bolt closed longer (with the added backpressure) i need to form 1 a bigger bore silencer... |

The first few hundred rounds were with Beretta 92 mags.
I switched to the Glock mag well and just hit 750. Ammo has been 115, 124, and 147 grain reloads. Walmart Winchester wife box, federal champion, and steel USA forged. Plus wolf and Tula. One jam. Firing sideways with ejection port up for 30 rounds and one piece of brass did not fully eject. A fifty something year old guy with out his reading glasses shooting cheap steel cased ammo with a fastfire with andot looking like a bunch of grapes, ringing 100 yd steel standing repeatedly. This is better than the rage toy I The ought it would be. Plus unlike many PCC, it takes G26 mags, G19, etc. It is actually better by far than a Sub2000, Or even a Beretta CX4.

Does anyone know if the trunnion size on thePAK9/RAK9 is the same size as a regular AK? Wouldn't mind swapping out the barrel for a 10.5" properly threaded to 1/2x28. |

I have seen one review with CZ75 mag adapter.
Where so you get those? |

Posted: 5/6/2019 1:24:56 PM EDT
[#44]
They talked about CZ75 mag adaptors when the PAK9 was first teased but if any were ever imported with one I've not seen it.
I wonder if Chiappa pushed them to make Beretta 92 adaptors instead, since they already imported the M1 9mm clone that ran off 92 mags. Which makes sense here cause surplus M9 mags plus easy to find 30 rnd mags. I thought if these things caught on we'd see a CZ or a Sig mag adaptor but it's probably a small market and the NAK9 and PSA's offering are fighting for space in the market too. |
