I believe you *have* to use them with PSA uppers.
Not really. For the OP. if i was in the market (maybe real; soon) i'd pick one up, for another Glock style 9mm build.Quote:

There's a few running PSA lowers with Green mountain bbls, any brand upper receiver, CMMG, JP, NFA, etc. 9mm BCG. ALL buffers work for any 9mm AR buils same for tubes, furniture, optics.............
Here's a read on the NFA lowers which IIRC are very similar to the PSA units. They're all so close only small parts, ejectors, LRBHO, roll pins or set screws to assemble set them apart. I'm linking it for the, not members, deny they're members OR JUST JOINED TO SELL STUFF [ROFL2]

Oddly enough there's numerous technical forums on Arfcom for those unable to locate any info or help here.

I just ordered one of the PSA 9mm billet lowers for an SBR. I'm still a ways out from trying it for a review though.
Buy a sig brace, till your approved.Quote:

Looking forward to reviews on these, as I hope to add it to my NFA trust before the new rules take effect.
Just tell her to go make you a sandwich and order it while she's busy in the kitchen.
So better to ask forgiveness than ask permission?Quote:

Oh, and be sure to let us know how that works out for you.

Not a PSA that uses Glock mags, but this came in my email and my first thought was how much trouble I'd be in if I ordered one. [dig]

I'm actually thinking about skipping the whole 9mm AR platform. I'm kind of waiting to see one of CZ Scorpion carbines in person and might go in that direction.Quote:

That's what I thought at first glance. After taking a second look I realized it was integrally suppressed.Quote:

I picked up my lower on Saturday. I'll keep everyone updated as it goes together.
Put some of it together this evening. Fairly certain it is going be built as a pistol. Just haven't figured it all out just yet. Took some digging around to find the magazines since I stashed them away years ago and couldn't remember where they were.Quote:

It's looking good Ray!
Looks good. I bit the bullet and bought a complete billet Glock mag lower. Going to put the paperwork in to SBR it as soon as I have it in hand to avoid the deadline. Gotta get a can ordered soon too.
I'm open to suggestions for the upper. Seems some of the 9mm stuff can be hit or miss as far as reliability and durability.
Just got the email ad from PSA:

I have two short Rock River 9mm uppers. They both run like shit through a goose.
Thanks. I was kind of looking at the Rock River stuff the other day. Glad to hear positive feedback on them. Not sure if they would be compatible with a Glock mag lower but I bet a little minor machine work on the bolt would make it work.Quote:

I'm not really set up to do any real machine work but I think the modification to the bolt to work with Glock magazines is fairly simple and straight forward and I probably know a couple of machinists that would hook me up for a reasonable price.
The newer G9 hybrid BCG on their uppers have been getting better reviews. Also, steer clear of the ETS mags apparently. Watched 2 reviews where those were the issue and not the gun.
Picked this up in a trade yesterday. Don't know if I am going to use a standard AR upper or pay for a NFA 9mm upper. As far as compatibility goes, I am almost certain NFA makes Joebobs and PSA. I can't find any complete uppers Instock but I am not worried about who's upper I use, I'm going to run the NFA glock/hybrid bcg in mine.

Any update on those who got one of these. Considering getting one soon.
I bought the billet lower and 16" classic 9mm upper back in July. Shoots great and feeds fine. It's really fun shooting 147gr with through the Osprey.Quote:

Westminster Arms off of Wadsworth had a few of the complete PSA 9mm that take the colt mags. They are really rough around the edges.

Runs perfectly and the build quality far surpassed my expectations. Price was outstanding. My buddy picked one up too. Dang thing eats ammo like a fat kid eats cake.
Do you have any pictures of the ATI?Quote:
