midlength perfect for a 16" barrel Francis. That's what I have on mine, from PSA

Just gotta find one :/

Got a PSA 16" carbine upper coming, when they get around to shipping it (ordered 3 weeks ago). In all likelihood, I'll probably end up reselling... but we'll see.

I found a Midwest 15" float rail in stock, I might pick that up for the heavy 20" frankengun I've got and see if I can lighten it up a bit. Then I can compare the two and decide which one to keep next year :)

I still would like to see an XDs and shield before i pull the trigger. Things are getting crazy around here though, most gun shops only have around 30% stock left. Most are completely out of target ammo too.

I had a CM9. It was a great carry pistol. Totally disappeared in a PJ holster. I miss it

I second this totally; I love my CM9 and the PJ holster is perfect for pocket carry. Great little gun and I can shoot it remarkably well given how small it is and big my hands are.

Looking for a CM9 now, actually.

Does anyone have personal experience, or know someone who does, with a Glock .22lr conversion? I'm looking to pick one up so I can economically shoot, plus continue to develop the feel for my Glock. Of course I'd still run a few mags of .40 thru it to keep up with the feel of that caliber.

I actually forgot about the uppers and tried to buy the 14 DPMS 20rd mags they had in stock. at $30ea, I could easily flip them on gunbroker for $60. Yes. I am a horrible horrible bastard. Go head and get it off your chest :)

Anyway, got as far as the checkout and realized the site is more than likely a scam site. It's fishy AT BEST. And for sh!ts and giggles, I delved deeper into the checkout - there wasn't even an option to ship it, only in store pickup.

ahh the takedown model, hence the need for the dremel - so now it's wood, and splits apart? NICE :tu

I don't but you'd be better off asking over on Glock talk or the subforum on ar15.com There are several conversions and I know one was mentioned being the best but I don't know which. You got a lot of .22lr? If not, that's had to find right now too it seems.
