I've been wanting a 9mm AR for a while, but i have a few hurdles living in the state i do. I can't just go buy a stripped lower like most of you, I'd have to buy a preban and that is about a 1000% markup. So, I'm wondering if anyone has had luck building a Polymer lower for 9mm. Specially glock. Read my mind sir, tagging for future wisdom. Aids cannon here I come

Why not build an aluminium 80%? https://daytonatactical.com/collections/9mm-parts/products/9mm-ar15-lower-receiver-raw-80-percent This one is cheaper. https://www.wolfpackarmoryusa.com/product-page/cerakoted-ar9-80-lower-receiver |

Certainly a possible choice. |

I'd only trust a polymer 80 with a .22
9mm would crack the lower quickly. |

Thanks for the input. Aluminum it is.

If you're still considering polymer, have you looked at these?
http://www.tnarmsco.com/tac-9-stripped-receiver-glock-mag-compatible-pre-order/ They've supposedly addressed the main weak points with brass inserts, although I haven't read whether they did anything for the spot prone to cracking behind the rear takedown pin. |
