Does the club allow steel cased ammo?
Yes. At AGC you can shoot about anything up to .50 BMG, except no tracers.

I have a MAX-11 as well. Total package was about $5k after all the Lage upgrades (and I meant ALL of them). Add another $1k for the suppressor. Still need to get an EOTech sight....
I replaced the Eotech on mine with a Docter sight. It cut down on the weight and eliminated " bleeding fingers". The Eotech gets in the way of the charging handle. The extended one is Okay but tends to snag.
I was using a 551 on it. I have switched recently to a Docter sight. 1913mount. That gives an absolute co- witness configuration with the Max-11 iron sights. I have also mounted it on the rearmost position of the rail as to clear the charging handle. It is lightweight and does not upset the silhouette of the gun. It is also just as fast as the Eotech.
I have a Leupold Delta Dot on order. I think that is much better than the Docter due to its triangular reticle. The Point can be used for longer range shots.
Do you think the EOLad model will be a bit uncomfortable to use?
The laser on the Eolad is mounted on the left side of the sight. The same place as the MAX-11s charging handle. I dont own an Eolad but think that it would be in the way.
I have a similar set-up that use for subgun matches. It is a good set-up. much better than other slow-fire conversions.
However, It does require hotter ammo. I have problems with WWB, My gun prefers the cheaper WOLF.
I have compared the performance of the max-11 to other subguns like the UZI, Sterling, Sten, SW76.. I would say it is up to par with an UZI. A bit faster on reloads compared to an MP5 or Colt 635.
I agree with your post. SWD mac 11/9 upgraded with a LAGE Max-11 slowfire upper is a good set-up.

I think you have one of everything!
Well I love my Eotech. The extended handle is ok with me. I would consider other sites too but I do love that Eotech. There are so many good options out there its kind of personal taste with none being bad. I think I like having that larger circle than just a dot. I also like having that larger view.
I would say a MP5 outclasses the Max11 but it certainly there with the UZI.
The mag problem can be solved with recon ordnance mags! All steal.
Of course I just got the DF (Dual Feed) conversion with Suomi mags. Thats an awesome conversion!

Nothing wrong with the Eotech. It is just that I keep snagging the sides of the sight when charging the Lage. But that is me...my screw ups do not apply to everyone.
I'm going to have to give more attention to my Macs. The lage that I currently have is a bit too heavy with that steel suppressor. I need to streamline it a bit.
A tactical bolt might be a good idea to speed it up a bit as well as shave some ounces.
I have all three bolts... if you want to test any, just let me know and I will make sure to bring them. I just got the DF speed bolt... I figured I better get them while I can.
I am not one to worry about weight. A BAR is fine... that FND is getting heavy! My MG08/15 is heavy!
Yeah I think the MP5 is just an all around better gun. Closed bolt is nice. Well made... I mean its just about the perfect sub gun. I think the biggest Max negative is the mags.
I am not rushing mag reloads so the lack of a stop is ok with me. However I do have a welder (spot and Tig). Plus I can sandblast and repark myself which makes it easy.
The MP5 is a beautiful gun but its cost and is at least five times that of a MAC and the benefits are negligible....MP5s and while I could have purchased one, I decided I'd rather have a MAX-11 and an M-16 over an MP5.
