RRA or CMMG 9mm AR?

[lshel]

I have been wanting a 9mm AR. What do you think of these two brands, complete gun? Internet prices run around $900 w/free shipping, is this high for M4 type withflip-up rear sight? Any LGS with better out-the-door prices? Lower receivers of CMMG about $290 complete.

thanks

do you have a source for an RRA, in stock? if so, I would say RRA hands down. CMMG makes some decent stuff, but they have a few problems from time to time (5.56 and .300 I don't know of any specific problems with 9mm). The Rock River could take 90 days or more to come in.

Also RRA seem to always have better triggers.

I have an RRA dedicated 9mm AR and it has been flawless, not to mention more than a lot of fun to shoot. Buy UZI mags then convert and refinish them if you go RRA.

How exactly do you modify an uzi mag to work? Is there a thread or how-to somewhere?

I have gone with the suggested RRA over the CMMG. I ordered 16" carbine RRA LAR-9, that was in stock at Bud's Gun Shop in KY. I want to add an economical A2/A3 Carry w/rear sight. What is a good brand and lower priced? I plan on ordering some extra mags after initial firing, maybe RRA brand ($28). thanks

Promags work flawless in my colt but do not have BHO so only use for the range and use my LE only mags for all other situations!
