Quoted: I recently completed the build of a CMMG RDB based build on a upper for my AR (16 inch barrel). I am using the mag inserts from CMMG that fit in a standard Pmag. It is running great and I love it. The only 9mm pistols I own are a beretta 92 and a USP, neither of which have 9mm AR lowers to fit the mags (that I found). So the mag inserts make the best sense. I have had zero issue with the mags. Plus having 30 round mags instead of 15 or so rounds is better in my opinion. The only thing I think that would make it better would be a bigger mag. I was wondering if anyone knows if there is any chance they might be able to convert the magpul D60 to run 9mm? Or is the design just too complex to be able to convert. I do not own a D60 so I am not sure of how the internals are, so I am not sure if it would even be possible. I'm just mainly curious. Here's what you do.... Send an email, or get your phone and CALL the manufacturer, and ask them to build one. Or buy a 3D printer and a PMAG and make one yourself.....or pay someone for R&D and have them make it. |

Because it takes, what, 5 seconds to perform a mag change?

I think and hope that we will see a 15-round Pmag conversion.
But I doubt we’ll ever see a D60 conversion. -Masta |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Because it takes, what, 5 seconds to perform a mag change? Then why did they even design and make the D60 to start with? Obviously there is a demand, and they are selling. |

If they haven’t rolled out a .300bo D60 drum, they won’t do one in any other caliber.
And sad to say, today it costs more to buy 60 rounds of .300bo than a new D60. If you want a Colt smg pattern 50 round 9mm, Promag makes a cheap one and X Products makes a good one. |

I haven't been keeping track of PCCs, but ar 9mm ARs still a big thing? In matches I've been seeing a lot of guys running Sig MPX for PCC.
Ask in the Magpul subforum. Maybe if it gets a lot of attention, it might get someone thinking. Now the question is, would it be modeled for Colt SMG or Glock mags? |

Yea I was not talking about magpul making it, I was talking about a conversion of the existing mag to be able to shoot 9mm from it just like the mag inserts you get from cmmg.
https://cmmginc.com/product/adapter-magazine-9-ar-conversion-10-30rd-3-pack/ Since those go into a standard pmag body and convert it to 9mm, I was wondering if there was a chance they could make some type of a insert or conversion to be able to do the same thing with with the D60. |

Well, not a conversion, but I just saw a teaser for Magpul’s 9mm drum for the Evo Scorpion.
And there’s a Glock version too. No Colt smg version tho. I’m guessing it’d have to have a metal tower and that’s too much metal for Magpul. |

People been asking for a standard 40 round version since the beginning to no avail. I doubt they will be jumping into a double wide 60 any time soon. |

The endomags are different from what cmmg uses. The endomags are set up for straight blowback and have a built in ejector. The cmmg inserts are set up for their rdb system, and do not have a ejector. Unless I am missing something? Can you grind off the ejector on the endomag and use it with a cmmg rdb? Why do that when you can just get the cmmg version? |

Mean arms I probably should have typed mean arms in my post....but I feel that I gave the info needed for you to get your answer. But....the simple fact remains. You still haven't contacted the manufacturer to answer your D-60 question you asked in your original post. Which would have been the fastest, simplest, and most effective way to get your answer. |

Theres a 3d printed insert for 10, 20, 30, 40 and 60 round mags. 9mm in a drum is a different animal and so far havent made much progress.
