16" ARs with something resembling the features of the OP have basically evaporated. If you're looking for a 16" AR, you're better off going for a premium one because the pricing on those hasn't shifted yet. Most of those are around $1400-1800.

Went to the indoor range to zero the new midlength builds yesterday morning. Used a bunch of extra parts I had around along with some new for the builds.Outdoor range is closed while they figure out how to implement state policies.
Carbines ran fine and I was surprised how close to zero I had them after boresighting from the kitchen counter to the back fence.
On my way out there were two Republican candidates with petitions to add themselves to the ballot. They had single use pens and hand sanitizer. Thought that was funny.

I can't remember exactly who it was (Ike I think) tried to explain this to me in the MFC thread but I thought that the availability and price of the 9mm ammo was enough of reason to go ahead with the AR9. Unless you really just don't want to own another different caliber I'd go for something else

That ^ is the main reason there is so little overall interest in 9mm ARs and why they don't really go on sale or have the market competition of the 5.56 rifles. Most people look at them and can't get past asking themselves, y tho?

You can go cheaper but to get it to shoot like an AR that's what you're looking at.

1. My indoor range is open 24 hours a day with keycard access and my outdoor range has severely limited hours during the winter which makes it hard to shoot except on Saturday. My Indoor range only allows pistol calibers.
2. I wanted to shoot PCC division for competition.

I went with endomags but a couple of times I've had trouble getting the first round of the mag to load correctly. After the first round they run perfect but its still annoying

There's a small amount of wiggle which isn't an issue when firing but can be irritating when loading.What type of block? Colt or Glock mags? Are you having problems with it?
For a mag block rifle I should just be happy but since I'm this far into it I'm just going to get the dedicated lower and then sell the block.

As someone who is essentially deaf in the left ear from shooting/concerts, I can't recommend enough storing a pair of electronic hearing protection with your firearm. You may not be able to deploy it, who knows, but just in case... the extra few seconds of putting them on could save you from being permanently disfigured (functionally).
With discretion of course.

There is not a substantial difference in risk of penetration through intermediate barriers, and danger on the other side, comparing 5.56 to pistols
Also, in all private citizen defensive gun uses, bullets hitting an innocent bystander isextremelyrare, in public or home.
There is, however, a substantial difference in the capacity of 5.56 to immediate incapacitate an attacker as compared to pistol

9mm PCC will, as you said, be quieter. Lots of people keep hearing protection nearby to their AR-15 (me included)

I'm sure that unit shoots well, but there's more to it than just shooting well. Getting a blowback AR9 to feel like a DI AR15 requires either a hydraulic buffer, captured buffer, or a roller delayed system.
You can shoot one pretty fast (I definitely did) with a standard spring but it doesn't feel "right". Your Bolt has a bunch of mass on it so as it comes forward it slams into the barrel and drives the muzzle down. So your recoil impulse is hard from the Bolt coming back and then you have this big mass coming forward again pushing the muzzle down. It's odd. JP Enterprises SCS fixes that.

Was running it with 147 gr JHPs on Sunday and it's weird how quiet a 9mm with a 14.5" barrel and a brake is.

Obviously you want to do your best to always know what's on the other side of your target, but in a life or death situation, that might not always be feasible.
Agreed, I have a pair of electronic muffs right next to my bed piece, and waiting on my stamp to clear, but I'm also not the only person in the house.
I'm sure it's going to feel different to someone who's extremely familiar with shooting an AR15, but it's not going to feel off to the vast majority of shooters. That said, the Extar gets awesome reviews across the board. It also has a delayed recoil system. Other benefits: last round bolt hold open, is inexpensive, runs glock mags, and has a side charging handle.

Either way, both of these will not give 1 **** about drywall interior walls, plywood/aluminum siding. Both of them shot out of a carbine give you a much better chance of being on target.

A good watch for everyone in here imo, even though they are mainly discussing concealed carry, it's still applicable:
Start at the 2min mark

There is no good reason not to prepare for the legal battle ahead of time.
That video makes some good points, ones I hadn't even considered before watching it (some months ago) even though I'd already looked into it and read up on it and joined up with one of those outfits. The 'hard target for prosecution' angle makes perfect sense

Either way, both of these will not give 1 **** about drywall interior walls, plywood/aluminum siding. Both of them shot out of a carbine give you a much better chance of being on target.

This doesn't have the bravo stock and has a single stage (prob just milspec) trigger, but is an affordable available alternative.
