I was about to say I've seen them here & there, but at annoying prices... then I realized you said Colt style. I'm pretty sure the only ones I've seen are Glock style.

Wonder if a standard AR mag catch will work with that lower? Or will it require the “special” 9mm mag catch?

Regular mag catch but all comes down to tolerances. Always the slightly thicker RRA mag catch.
