Title: Hey MB while you are on your suppressors for everyone campaign...
Post by: ccd on October 19, 2008, 06:24:42 PM
Is there any chance you can convince one of the AR makers to offer an upper in 9x39? I am not a great fan of rebated cases and only JDJ (JDJ obviously beleives in capitalism)and Olyarms(last resort) offer the Whisper and the 9x39 seems to have been a success in Russian hands. If nothing else it could also be offered, besides in the heavy subsonic loading, in a 180 gr load and be sold as a semiauto version of the 35 Remington.

Thanks.

 ???  Huh? The .35 Remington was originally chambered for the Remington Model 8 semi-automatic rifle in 1908.

A 35Rem type cartridge that works in an AR 15 platform , although I only care about it with subsonic loads.

Jeeeeeeeeeeez...you ask for a lot! The whole industry is spooked silly about the election, it's hard to get their attention. It's tempting to get one of the 5.7 X 28 uppers just for giggles.

Michael (or anyone else who knows)

Could you let me know what co's (other than FNH) have put out (or are going to put out) either complete rifles or uppers in 5.7 X 28?
Thanks in advance for the info.
