Since I bought one of the first 635 lower halves I ended up with black anyway so for me that works.

I used an H&R lower with a Liemohn barrel and the rest Colt parts.



It’s a blast to shoot.  As are these 9mm’s

Lol, let me know when you find a stripped gray upper!

I just ordered a gray Commando lower from H&R for another project but ended up grabbing a black upper from them since gray was still nowhere to be found. Back to the airbrush and moly resin....

I might have missed it, but was there any word on what the thread pitch is? 1/2x28 or 5/8x24?

Ah, thanks. I missed that. The last couple gray uppers I needed for 5.56 builds so I probably didn't even check the 9mm ones.

i have a colt commando 9mm smg and would love to swap this upper.

I like it. I did notice how low the safe semi auto marks were

But I dont really think it is.  Correct me If I am wrong, but that bump, is on the wrong side to work with an auto sear.



Here is an M16 pocket.

The area that H&R left actually blocks the arm that engages the Auto sear with the safety,    That side should be machined flush on a Mill Spec M16 pocket

Does the H&R DOE upper use the standard Colt 9mm bolt and does the lower then use the standard Colt 9mm hammer?
I have Colt 9mm lower I married to a Colt 9mm upper with integral carry handle.
Both are New Old Stock.

I want to purchase the H&R DOE upper when available.
If I remember correctly there are some lowers and uppers that use Glock magazines and different bolts and hammers than Colt.


Thank you!-Richard

Ours uses Colt style mags, standard hammers, and dual use bolts that are ramped so the old school “special hammer “ isn’t required.
