I'm going to buy a 9mm carbine eventually. Was looking at Colts but I'm in no rush.
Would LOVE to see in Glock mags
how can the most popular pistol, arguably ever, be a novelty. Sh!t, my grandmother has a glock 17.I think Colt mags are the way too go on this one.. Many manufactures such as Colt, Metalform, Brownells, and ASC all make affordable and reliable magazines to support Colt pattern AR lowers and Colt pattern 9mm ARs are not going anywhere. Yes people have Glock mags, but how many of them have are 9mm or more importantly how many have 33 round mags for said 9mm Glock? In the long run you will probably still find yourself buying mags.
IMO Glock lowers are more of a novelty, and probably would be better after these lowers catch on and start making a profit. Funny thing is if the proposed lower was for a Glock pattern receiver someone would chime in "how come no Colt pattern lower".
FWIW, I believe that my CMMG 9mm AR takes Colt mags. They were cheap and easy to find.

I'd be willing to buy one and put a deposit down. I have a SBR built on a DDLES lower and love it.
Glock mags require mods to the carrier and a different feed ramp from what I could tell. We dont make carrier in house and would most likely have to mod existing carriers which means mods and then refinishing. It might be something we do but the carrier thing just would limit our options and drive the cost up a lot.
