I currently have the following:

pistol lower
LPK
A2 upper
pistol FF
pistol gas tube

I need the following:

9mm 7 1/2" bbl
9mm bolt
9mm mag block
bushmasters pistol buffer tube and modified carrier & parts





My big question is after showing you my "wish list" is, will bushmasters pistol buffer tube and carrier work with a 9mm setup? basically I want to build a 97s type pistol but I havent seen anywhere here where anybody is using the small bushie tube in 9mm. will it be ok? or do I need a full carbine buffer tube?

i would rather go with a carbine buffer assy even if the 97s buffer worked. the 9mm is a blowback setup so recoil would be much greater and more violent than that of .223/5.56



you might have to check into hammer, shell deflector, and what ever else depending on your 9mm setup and gas tube wont be needed with the 9mm since its a blowback system and not a gas one.


one of the threads i found talking about 9mm pistols. also look in the rimfire&pistol caliber section

ok then thats a "no go" for me then. I guess I will make a .223 pistol then.

The bushmaster pistol buffer tube and complete bolt asesembly will not work in a 9mm system.
