    Double Diamond dedicated Sub Gun 9mm AR15 Lower? Pics inside

    I think this looks cool as heck. Any info at all would be greatly appreciated. I've been thinking about doing a 9mm AR for awhile now.

    Apparently it works with works with Colt (Metalform), Promag and C-Products magazines.

    Assume it takes Colt 9mm magazines?

    I can appreciate the desire to save weight, but the aesthetics don't interest me. I'd prefer the front of the magwell to just be a big block of aluminum and maintain the standard lines..... I think.

    I'd certainly love to see one in person, and would really like to see a picture up into the magwell how much it's beveled, if at all.

    The manufacturer claims Colt pattern 9mm.

    And I too would like too see how the magwell is shaped

    Here is there site for anyone interested: http://shop.doublediamondsupply.com/main.sc

    Edit: here are pics of the magwell

    I do like the look of that bevel.

    Billet or forged?

    Current Colt mags are made by C-Products, although Metalform mags fit, too (although Metalform recently raised their prices substantially).

    I would be willing to bet that they are billet as the novelty aspect of this item would probably limit sales and not be worth the initial investment for the forging dies.

    Even though I just got my hands on a dedicated 9mm Rock River lower I may have to give one of these a try. I dont think I would have got the RR if I knew about this one.

    I on the other hand like the look.

    Now that I see it in the white, I agree.

    Just built this upper for a customer and I liked it so much I had to share. It was really light weight and is very well balanced. The QD suppressor is a nice setup as well.

    I have to make one of these for myself.
