Does anyone make a 10mm upper, thanks

Haven't seen one and why would you want something that is hard to get ammo for and is expensive to shoot.

9mm should be fine for a handgun sized AR.

Haven't seen one in 40 either.

For a .40 or 10mm what mags would you use?
The other conversions use existing mags for other guns.

Yes.  Olympic Arms makes one.  It uses modded Uzi mags.  Runs like a champ.

Thanks for the replys I reload for the 10mm so ammo is no big deal,  I just like the way my buddies MP5/10 shoots at 75 to 100yds.

Why wouldn't 10mm feed from a 6.8 magazine?

338 spectre is a 10mm mag necked down and it uses standard 6.8 mags.

Just a thought.

Will the 10mm MP5 mags work?  I'd see them for sale on the gun auction sites.  Just a thought

You can use grease gun magazines, squeeze the feed lips closed a little, and an AR45, Bazooka Brothers or Cav Arms lower with an Oly 10mm upper.

10mm out of a 16" (or even 10") barrel is going to have a LOT more velocity than a 9mm.  
A significant step up in power if you're in to that sort of thing.

Carphunter in the video told me he was getting near 1700fps with the 180g XTP. Dont quote me but I swear that is what he said.
