Been wanting to build one of these for three years now.
Buddy and I got together and with his abilities we struck a deal. I buy 2 9mm bbls, he rents reamer and chambers both bbls and we both have a barrel.
That was three + years back.
This week I decided Is just pay to have one chambered.
I called four diff smiths and spoke with three. (One hasnt replied as yet.)
But last one was referal from one of otgers and that was thearguy. Apparently he SPECIALIZES in 357 Sig uppers. But his are DI not blow back as he has learned 357 Blow Backs balance a fine line and most often result in the need for ultra heavy bolts/ buffer systems and probability of low case life and blown cases. In short, he wont do them any more and advises against me doing it.
SO.... Im stuck with two brand new Ballistic Products 16" barrels and a nearly complete upper assembly.
I am not a 9mm guy.... BUT I have a few 9mm magazines and everything to have a upper sans a bolt....
So today Primary arms has 129$ and they have agreed to send me a BCG.
Well it IS A 35 cal, and I AM A 35 cal fan!

I didnt order any buffers my PCC is a 40 so Ill try it with what I have but know light loads may not reliably function.
Tommie's heavy 9mm thread made me think. I have a nice Lyman 147g as well as a 130 TC Mold. (Used in my 38 Super)
