Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By ALASKANFIRE: There was a thread on Snipershide with some 9mm bolt action pre order but I think it was a 700 based action which didn't make any sense to me. I totally agree that a dedicated 9mm sized or just pistol caliber sized action would be pretty cool. Something like a toggle or straight pull with high cap mags would be fantastic. Couple people have converted the Armscor/RIA 22 TCM bolt actions to 9mm with some success. The Armscor 22TCM bolt action conversion takes a little bit of work to the bolt face (about .014" diameter difference between the rims), but you can actually just turn a 9mm AR barrel (that's a White Label Armory barrel in the picture below) to the correct thread tenon dimensions and cut a feed ramp in once the barrel is timed. Works like a charm.  Attached File |

I wish a shop would do them. SIA did a few Novem carbines but the others I’ve seen were one offs. Still not ideal as the work and barrel could cost the same as the gun if not more.
Give me a Ruger American with the same magwell as their PCC. |

I have a mini fix but unfortunately it's back at Q for warranty work. Started to have light primer strikes. If they don't get it back to me in a timely manner I will ask for a refund. I really love the gun and it is the most fun gun to shoot suppressed. I just think the action has some flaws that are starting to pop up. I'm not the only one. I also want a short bolt action for supers not sure what caliber yet.

That I would buy. Doesn't make sense to me to get into rifle length rounds just to make them subsonic for quiet plinking. But a 147gn 9mm that sounds like a 22? That would be fun |

There was a one off custom that I believe a GAP employee made that was based off a CZ or something that took Glock mags. I forget the price but it was sold before I saw it. Wasn’t cheap but was pretty bad ass. This thread has me thinking about a few options for big bore. 45 Raptor being a thought. I have a molds for .452 bullets and also my .45 lc dies would work on the seating and crimp. I’d just need cut, ream &trim 30-06 brass or buy Starline For a 9mm I’d like to dream up something using AR platform with locking bolt |

Just thinking about stock/chassis options. I was thinking about how cmmg uses a modified AR bolt for their delayed 9mm system. Maybe make a locking version. What you have there looks like a much easier path for sure than what I was thinking. |

I've not seen any aftermarket stocks that fit the Armscor action; it doesn't fit any other receiver pattern that I know of. Your options are the factory wood, or the "M22 Tactical" synthetic, at least as far as I'm aware. |

Curtis Tactical was working on or now has a 9mm bolt action. TFB did a write upa while back.
I’ve got an AEM5-30 that isn’t being used at the moment and was thinking of doing as short of a .300 BLK SBR as possible to take it. Would be a great hunting rig with supers and also have the ability to run subs for the stupid fun. I’ll have to look into all the chassis options and what minimal barrel length I could get away with. |

It is the B&T 300 SPR. Has a 9.8" barrel with a over the barrel suppressor. Pretty rad. From what I can tell it was discontinued. Likely the price and it was a factory 2 stamp set-up. Would probably sell better now that there is efile form 4's.  World’s quietest Sniper rifle. B&T 300 SPR |

Just found this thread. How is your search for the SBR build? I picked mine up in 6.5 CM, which is 12.5" 1:8. Going with Leupold VX3 3-10. Plan to use as a pig/truck gun. If all goes well with it, I am strongly considering an SBR stamp. Have you found any good solutions for 1913 butt-stocks?

You can run a standard buffer tube with it. Stock is LWRC compact. I may end up down the road going for an even shorter, fast twist barrel and a lighter can. The AEM5-30 is an absolute pig and this is a hunting oriented rig. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By WhiteDingo: Sig has sold the cross stock by itself in the past to people that have called customer service, and I believe it's the same interface as their picatinny folding knuckle for their MPX/MCX stocks Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By WhiteDingo: Originally Posted By Evil_Ed: Phase two complete....barrel ordered: https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/22779/barrel-300blk-2765329.jpg Now to order another Xeno brake for it, and figure out what pistol/SBR chassis to buy for it...so far choices are either a Black Collar Pork Sword, or a JTac Screech Owl...I'm not particularly sold on either. Most of the other chassis I looked at used AR buffer tube-style stocks which I don't want; they're too fat/thick...I'm looking for something thinner than that. Best option would be something like a Sig Cross stock on a pic adapter...I don't know if anyone makes a stock like that. Assuming I decide I like this thing enough to SBR it that is... Sig has sold the cross stock by itself in the past to people that have called customer service, and I believe it's the same interface as their picatinny folding knuckle for their MPX/MCX stocks Yup - there's a few places that sell it...it's finding the folding knuckle that interfaces with M1913/pic rails that's the issue. I think I found a source for that too...but I wound up ordering a "Kate Moss" - type stock, and I'll see how that works out first. And filed the paperwork to SBR it...figured why the hell not, what's $200 and a year of waiting

Phase ...uh, 3, 4, 5 complete, 6 in progress?
Chassis and trigger came in, followed by a potential stock (which, if I decide to not use it here, I can use it elsewhere):  What it would look like, roughly, if the stock were attached:  Barrel should only extend another inch or inch and a half past the end of the handguard, so...should be nice  And, I filed for a stamp from the ATF, so...maybe in a couple months, it'll be complete-complete? Until then I can use it as the pistol I originally envisioned and see how it does. Sadly, mocking up the stock, it does not sit on the right side cleanly...it interferes with the bolt handle  I was hoping the stock would fold to the right cleanly, like a Sig Cross. I mocked up with the stock from my Cross incidentally, and that interferes too...the stock would need to be mounted up super high on a knuckle of some kind, and even then - the rear of the bolt actually extends further than the rear pic rail a little...so any knuckle would need to be flush with the rear of the pic rail at best. But, given that the bolt handle is what it is...a left-side folding stock is about the best I could expect.

Aside from 300bo, what are some other calibers that tolerate short barrels better?
