    I searched, and couldn't find a thread with much information on 80% AR-9 with Glock mag compatibility. I am looking to get into 80%s in the coming months. I wanted to build something I don't currently have, and I think AR-9, with Glock mag compatibility, is at the top of the list.

    So far, I found two 80% AR-9's:
    https://www.newfrontierarmory.com/shop/80-c-9-billet-lower-receiver-glock-style-mags/

    https://www.80-lower.com/collections/ar9-80-lower/products/ar9-lower-receiver

    Does anyone have any experience with these 80% lowers? Do you know of any other 80% AR-9 with Glock mag compatibility?

    I am planning of putting together this lower with a 16" barreled upper to make my own pistol caliber carbine, mostly for plinking. If you have any recommendations on upper assemblies (or parts), go ahead and post those, too. Thanks!

    edit: I plan on getting the 5D Tactical Router Jig PRO. I already have a DeWalt DWP611 as recommended from the 5D Tactical site

    I also have the lower from Wolf Pack Armory, still need to mill it out.

    It's a nice lower, cerakote is done well, machining is well done. Mocked it up w/out any issues. Takes my Glock mags, and drops them, as it should.

    Hmm.. you're a "bad" influence, Doc...

    Been thinking about another project and the Ruger PPC in 9mm also dances around...

    AR-9... with glock mags... to complement a Polymer80 pf940c...

    Takedown, 9mm, glock mags, unregistered...

    Check out the CMMG Guard. Delayed blowback 9mm AR. You can get the bolt and barrel for $375. Will go great on that Wolfpack lower.....
