Currently have a HYDRA-multi caliber AR platform. 9mm uses colt mags - nice shooter, 9mm great to shoot & relatively inexpensive. Was looking essentially for a dedicated range toy, but the Hydra doesn't allow a lot of modularity...had a look at the JRC carbine etc but decided on a QC10 glock build (glock mags are readily available and easy to load) and thought I'd share some costings for those thinking about taking the leap.
Stripped lower & dedicated bolt - $1280
Raptor charging handle - $179.90
Anderson stripped upper - $176.90
Brownells 9mm buffer/Rock River 9mm spacer - $90
CAA buffer tube $99
Magpul qd sling plate $69.90
Buffer tube castle nut - $14.95
Buffer Spring - $30? (had a spare)
AIL fixed tube A Cat Stock - $299.95
BAD safety ambi selector - $139.95
Giselle Super Semi-Auto Enhanced trigger - $499.90
JP lower parts kit - $99.90
9mm barrel - $550
Handguard - $350 (budgeted as still undecided)
.....add 9mm carbine suppressor & optic....
Obviously added a few bells & whistles...dedicated package, or find buy someone else's project probably best way to go.
