This 9mm PCC checks a lot of boxes for me. Uses Scorpion mags, able to FRC easily, bolt catch on last round, and is affordable. Does anyone have any experience with these? https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-ar-v-8-9mm-1-10-lightweight-m-lok-moe-ept-sba3-pistol.html |

My ARV rides with me in my truck. It has been 100% reliable with one exception. Freedom Munitions sells a hollow point target ammo that my gun doesn't like to feed. Everything else it feeds perfectly and that includes other hollow point ammo and steel cased ammo. I have at least a couple of thousand rounds through my gun and it is perfect. My only complaint is that I wish it came with a side folding stock and a bigger bolt catch/release. No one who has shot my ARV has complained about it any way. |

| I found that the bottom of the feeding ramp on the reciever kept the Magpul mags from seating easily in the AR-V compared to the PSA mags. If you look at the difference in mags, there is a small shelf about an inch down from the front of the mag that is a 90* edge. The PSA mags have the same edge only it is beveled just slightly. I sanded down the sharp edge on the magpul mags till they inserted smooth without the extra force needed to seat them and now they work perfectly. |
| I built an AR-V from the Upper/Lower/Bolt kit PSA sells. I used a Faxon 8" barrel, Samson 12" Evolution handguard, standard LPK and an SB PDW brace. My Griffin Bushwacker fits under the Evolution nicely. I use the PSA mags and a couple Scorpion 20's, all are 100%. It's my favorite PCC. I had heard of some issues with Magpul mags with it, and PSA's mags were $10-$15 at the time, so I loaded up. |

^ now that has my attention. Curious to see how it is delayed. Edit: sorry palmetto my AR-V already has a Maxim Roller Delayed Buffer in it. Unless they figured out a way to bypass the 30 lbs charging force needed to cycle the first round, I will stick with my setup. |
