    Purchased the mag adapter. Dropped right in and works the way it is supposed to. Appears to be built very well. Bolt hold open feature is why I made the decision to purchase over others. Very impressed.

    Solid, well worth the money. Will buy a 45 in the future. The only reason I gave it 4 stars, is that I don’t give 5. I would buy it again

    Excellent product, American ingenuity at its best.
    Makes it easier to have a 9mm AR especially if you're on a budget!

    Ordered this in a kit and works perfectly so far. Installation is simple and has had 0 failures of any kind through 200+ rounds of factory, plated, coated or cast ammunition. Built heavy duty

    Works very well with every magazine I've tried. 100% function with 14 different loadings and 5 different size and/or brand mags. Well worth the money, with this and the Beretta 92 version I can pair any of my pistols with an AR style carbine.
