Wife says I don’t need it

[KJQ6945]

If you're looking for an argument against it, I have yet to hear from an owner of a Colt mag pattern AR9 that actually functions.

A Colt mag pattern works fine if you get a real Colt, and use real Colt mags.

I am new here, but I do not think this is the best place to seek financial or marital advice lol.

Anyway, just buy it. If it doesn't work out, you know where the classifieds are.

Not sure he'd be able to sell her off here...

Wife’s into guns carries and has her own AR she has a old bushmaster A2 style. She prefers iron sites from her military time.

Should I wait and see if the H&R has more reviews?
It’s supposed to be a direct copy of the colt.

Or maybe a MP5 clone?

Are you looking for something functional, or just something cool?

Scorpions are nice.

I guess kool I don’t need it for anything.

If you need someone to talk you out of it...

It's only sorta cool. A real Colt would be cool. This is a clone, and the brace that comes on it is goofy looking and undersized. An SBA3 or similar brace is what this pistol needs. That adds another $100 or so. But Colt mag fed AR9s don't have the most stellar reputation for reliability. Do an internet search for "Colt AR9 problems" and it will be easier to talk yourself out of this.

Then there's the cost. $1100? For an AR9? Really? Cool or not, unreliable guns are not interesting, especially north of 10 bills. Plenty of options in the $600-$800 range for a cool, reliable braced 9mm pistol, and many of them take dime-a-dozen Glock mags. Or as mentioned above, a CZ Scorpion is very cool.

I would say it has more to do with your financial situation than anything.

How about a real Colt, with real Colt mags?



And a real stock! Get a stamp, cut and thread the barrel.

I had an AR9 that I built using glock mags. It ran like a top, unsuppressed and suppressed. Only thing was I hated the blowback action. Same reason I don't have a Sub2K anymore either. Sold the AR9 and bought a roller lock and did a 2 stamp. I made one exception for a blowback 9mm. And it's a absolute hoot to shoot. But good luck finding it around $1K anymore

 

[KJQ6945]

This one has some cool factor to it.

 

[KLB]

At 128K it has something.

Somebody bought it for $500 bucks back in the 80’s, never opened the box. That’s what you call an investment.

In the 80’s, I spent most of my money on beer. I feel like I pissed it away.

I could SWEAR that PSA was looking into doing an H&R 9MM DOE subgun pistol

I was right.. don't know if its out yet.

 

[JTKelly]

If you are STILL THINKING about this, dump her.

 

[Brad69]

I get the .mil discount on CZ stuff I might buy one of them scorpion things. I might considering the Stribog thing or a MP5 clone.

So still thinking!

You know this is what European people think an American table looks like every day.
