Is CMMG the best 9mm bolt?

[Dr.Rob]

When you are building your own? I've heard lots of good things (and a couple bad) about New Frontier's 9mm bolt and it can be had for $60 less.

Doing a Colt style rifle, have most of my parts planned. Already have my dedicated PSA lower assembled.

[Not_A_Llama]

I really like my Nitrided Spinta blem bolt. Can't tell if it's the bolt or my mags, but it's dragging on a lip of my Creative Products mags.

There are quite a few to choose from these days.

Just to list a few. I'm certain there are more out there.

Something else I thought was worth a mention (as I too am doing a PDW 9mm AR build soon), with PSA it is not uncommon for their products to not be compatible with other manufacturers. I'm going to be using a lower that will be compatible with Glock magazines. It's what I currently love to run and I know they work. It keeps it compatible with my handgun. Best of luck with your build. Probably look at starting mine after the holidays. I just ordered my parts to build my Form 1 suppressor so I gotta save up a bit now.

Can't comment on any other bolts but I am using the CMMG (with Spikes 9mm buffer and Wolf extra power spring) on myQC10 Colt pattern and it seems to be working fine.

I have a Rock River and a JP bolt.

Both work flawless.

[MilehighGS]

I have a KAK BCG and has run flawless putting 200 rounds thru it so far.

[TriggerHappy]

Anyone ever use these guys? I might order something after the new year. I have a QC10 Glock to build.

I have used a CMMG since 2012, no problems at all.

[thedave1164]

I have a new frontier bolt, I believe it is a hybrid, I am using it with a billet lower that uses Glock mags

[cysoto]

In my very limited experience, all AR-9 bolts are equal as long as you choose the correct platform (Ex Glock vs Colt).

[Dr.Rob]

I ended up with a Spinta Precision bolt.
