Looking to buy an AR9 carbine soon. I am looking specifically for a true AR15 style 9mm rifle or pistol. (Had a M&P response and didnt like the polymer upper).
Anyone have any experience with the Armalite M-15 PDW 9MM? Also, I am torn between the carbine length or pistol length AR9 platforms? Which is your preferred and why? Looking on the PSA website, I am interested in the following: PSA AR-V (5655103511) PSA 5165450028 Armalite M-15 PDW 9mm (51655152872) |

What are is your intended use for the 9MM PCC?
All 3 of your linked 9MM PCC's are 16" and those give a respectable increase in velocity, and that allows the typical 9MM self defense round to be a 100yd performer. But, IMHO that 16" barrel is a little clumsy. Have your considered a 9MM pistol AR ? Something similar to this ?... https://palmettostatearmory.com/armalite-m-15-pdw-9mm-luger-9-30rd-pistol-w-brace-black-m15pdw9.html

Grab an AP5. 9mm ARs are generally pretty finicky things and are kinda lame to use. For about $1050 you can have an AP5 and it’s just more fun at the range. Just my opinion.

If want fun, get the AK-V with the ALG trigger. it bump fires super easy. I can empty the mag in about 4 seconds.

I'm not sure why you're limiting your options to the PSA website. There are hundreds of great dealers out there. Common sense dictates you first pick the gun, and then find a good reliable honest high CS dealer that sells them. Remember that PSA is a drop shipper

Remember that PSA is a drop shipper Will either be buying a PSA AR9 or the Armalite from their website since the Armalite is on sale on PSA's website. Unless there are better AR style rifles / pistols out there |
