Quoted: What is the better 9mm Ar upper kit out there. I'm contemplating between the following dealers. COLT is out of the question.
1. Olympic Arms 2. Rock River Arms 3. American Spirit Arms
Can this just be mated to a complete AR lower?? OR I need a different buffer tube and spring. HELP pls.

I can tell you that I'm very happy with my Oly 9mm conversion. Sten mags are cheap and plentiful, and the socom mag block works well. I've mounted it on both a Colt lower and a Cavarms lower and both work flawlessly and needed no modification at all. Plus the sten mag box loader makes filling mags a breeze (too easy sometimes! You'll be out of ammo before you know it!).
I know that RRA has a very good rep as an AR manufacturer, but I haven't heard any feedback on their 9mm's. My only concern there would be what kind of mags do they use? IMHO, I'd rather pay $3 a mag than $20-$50 a mag.
As far as ASA goes, I know nothing about them, so I'll refrain from comment.
Aww hell, go with the Oly... it kicks ass.
