I like the looks of it. I would like to do a 9mm version someday.

Very nice!
I had a similar idea once, but was thinking of making the buffer mount and the handgrip section all one piece.
You even angled off the magwell, as I had planned. Looks good!

Excellent work!
Could you post plans for an AR10 version?
While I am begging 9mm and 45 caliber would be nice too!

very nice work.
Could you mill it in only three pieces? 2 sides and the rear/buffer tube mount?

Sure U can do it however you want. It just makes it more likely to scrap a more complacated part than a smaller easier to remake part.

It's a nice idea this. Has it been tested and proven to work? Seems like a good alternative to the holmes receiver.
Once bolted together and test-fitted and all, I'd consider welding the pieces together to avoid being surprised by loose bolts
Kanton: you might want to check out bill holmes AR15 book detailing his 9mm conversion
