Rhineland Arms FG-9

[pjm204]

Has anyone seen the new Rhineland Arms FG-9? I saw news of them awhile back and thought they were pretty neat. Put myself on the waiting list and they just showed up today! I ordered one for myself and 4 to sell. Of course I'm pretty sure no one knows they exist so I'm not sure how easy they will be to move.

What do you guys think of it?

Neat. Never heard of that, what’s msrp?

It says it uses an AR15 fire control group. Will an DIAS or Lightning Link work in this?

 

[Gaujo]

Well color me intrigued. It's a reasonable price too. I wonder why they built it in 9mm though?

Blowback is cheap and easy to engineer and manufacture vs. all the locking systems, heat treating, etc, that a proper rifle would require.

Colt smg mags?! Probably not. Would have had me with cheap 36 round Suomi mags

This means UZI mags will work with a milled slot for the bolt catch.

Same mod I use on my Colt 9mm carbine and the mags still work in my AA UZI pistol.

So if you're already invested in either the Colt 9 carbine or a UZI of any flavor you already have mags for that gun.
Might just need to mod em if not already done.

Doubtful I'll buy one but mags should be plentiful & cheap so long as you don't have to have the colt logo on the mag.

Uzi mags are cheaper than Suomi mags

I can't answer that question unfortunately.
