Hello everyone.  Getting ready to complete my 9mm build.  I've read a lot of opinions about the various blocks and every thread I can find here.

I'll have a Bushmaster lower with RRA 9mm complete upper.  I intend to use Cproducts 32 round mags, and may pick up a few of the el-cheapo promags for range use.

I'd really like a block that won't require me to drill any holes or anything like that.  I prefer one that can be held in with the regular mag catch.  I'd like to have bolt hold open, but that's not really a show stopper for me.

I'm looking at 3 mag blocks.  The RRA block and the 2 Hahn blocks (bottom and top loading).  Any preference between those?  I have no idea how the 3 install.  Other than the obvious (one loads from the bottom, one from the top) what is the difference between the 2 Hahns?

Which of the 3 would meet my criteria?

Thanks for any suggestions/opinions/links.

If dealers don't have adapters in stock just buy direct from Hahn Precision.

The return policy at Brownelles is superiour to the majority of site vendors who sell the Hahn block, and the same price to boot.

I have a Garrison, and it is very similar to the RRA, it has a set screw that presses out 2 locking detents into the the sides of the magwell.  It doesn't mar the magwell.  It activates the bolt hold open, C Products and Pro Mags work well.  It utilizes the rifles mag release also.  I am very happy with mine.
