    .40 cal ar??!

    Hello! First post, so bare with me...



    We are currently using Bushmaster 9mm carbines in select fire, and have
    Springfield 1911s chambered in 40s&w. I'd like to know if anyone makes a
    .40 upper for the AR15, magazines and who makes a compatible suppressor
    for such an AR. We have to have the suppressors so we don't wake our
    clients, and would like the 40 as it's not only same ammo as our
    sidearms, but my team prefers its terminal performance as well.



    Any suggestions?

    Oly makes a .40 upper but has a strange mag setup (Mag with welded spacer). I have seen a post from the Rock River rep that RR has a .40 upper based on the Colt 9mm design. He said that it was comming out as soon as they finished up a couple other things that they had going on. I would hold out for that and see if it meets your/your departments needs.

    silencers

    how about a silencer for the .40 cal ar? we need the silencers to keep the noise down in the compound incase of any [I]issues[I].

    AWC has some 10mm MP5 cans that should work with your .40 AR with the propper barrel setup. Maybe others too. Cans are outside my level of knowledge. Maybe others will post.

    I too am member of a 3 team, 4 man sleeper cell, performing 24 hour security on a secured residential complex. Our clients are employees of a particular agency on the east coast and their families. Were pretty much in the same boat as you Mr Sights. I'd love to hear any suggestions y'all may have. We're tired of the lack luster performance of our 9mm ARs, and would like something that matches our Glock 40s.

    Darknight, are you guys interested in any joint training with us?

    I'm not sure I get it. No one here mentioned anything about Malls or Ninjas.
