Hi folks, need to pick your brain for some advice on my next project. I had been planning on this build for quite some time but still can’t come to a good resolution.
Objective: A suppressed 9mm SBR that feeds on Glock mags. Budget 800 to 1k. (Prefer 800 so I can be around 1k including stamp). I like the idea that primary and secondary firearms run on same caliber and share magazines. A carbine or mid length rail to be flush with threaded muzzle to mount suppressor would be ideal.
Possible build: (Budget listed below does not include shipping, FFL, and stamp)
1. LWD Glock lower + RRA 9mm 7 inch upper. Est. $750
Pro: I love RRA, and price is right!
Con: Known feeding issue when mating RRA and LWD.
2. LWD Glock lower + LWD 9mm upper, re-thread/cut barrel. Est. $1200
Pro: Flawless operation review.
Con: Wife yelling on price, no go.
3. Kel-Tec Sub-2000
Pro: Dirt cheap, $300 + $100ish for re-thread barrel, or if anyone knows where I can get a threaded barrel for Sub2k please let me know!
Con: I need qual rails for accessory. This is not really a SBR, it will be almost 22 inches just on barrel after mounting suppressor.
4. EAA Roni Est. $400 + LWD threaded barrel for a Glock 17 $125
Pro: Very affordable since its just a kit, not a complete firearm. Very stylish and unique.
Con: It will accept suppressor with <35mm width, not sure if it will clear my Cobra M2 @ 34mm with a tilting Glock barrel.
PS. If I get this kit, I like to get a Glock17 L barrel so it will extent from the kit and allow more play to clear the suppressor. I think it will work with a regular Glock 17 slide, can one of you guys confirm it? Please let me know if you have any experience/feedback using the EAA Roni kit.
Open for suggestions. I am leaning toward to EAA build, but worry about reliability.
