The problem with this is that if you're used to hitting the traditional magazine release on your AR and you do this while the block is in, you'll dump the magazine and the block on the ground. If you want to keep the same manual of arms on a 9mm conversion as on a regular AR, you're better off going with a dedicated lower or something like this magazine conversion which seems like a really clever idea..

Go over to calguns and pick up a bullet button mag release.

Tried the AR to 9mm mag conversions. The Torkmag works okay once you get it tuned, the others I would never rely on.

But the endomag looks pretty cool. If it works as advertised, WINNING!

If the point is to maintain commonality of manual of arms between a full size rifle and a 9mm trainer, then this makes zero sense.

Figured I would update. I received mine the other day but haven't shot them. They seem very well made and are slip right in, but I'm concerned the plastic ejector will be a problem long term.

YouTube removed the video for "violating YouTube's Community Guidelines".

I got the same removal notice.

Check this out with metal ejector.

Here's a link to save the next person from having to Google what the heck people are talking about.

Especially necessary with the removal of the youtube video - that woild have probably given more information about the product.

I wondered about the plastic ejector too but after watching this video I decided to order some anyway. It doesn't address long term concerns but it does show the ejectors aren't exactly fragile either.

This guy has a potty mouth so be careful of where you play it.

I placed the order Oct. 31 at 4:40pm and tracking says it will be here Monday, Nov. 5.

Necropost, but with an actual update. I found out about these inserts on a different site, and having a spare set of receivers and other parts, ordered a three pack and built up a 9mm this week. Aero upper and lower, 7" Rosco barrel, FM products 9mm Glock bolt and heavy buffer, Law Tactical folder. Took it out to a very windy Great Guns this morning. The mag/AR combo fed 115gr JHP, 147 gr JHP and 115 Winchester steel case without a hiccup.
