I am looking at converting a slickside 9mm upper to a sidecharger by tapping a bcg and slotting the upper. Will a 223bcg lock up in a 9mm upper? That upper would be ideal since there is no forward assist.

Does the 9mm upper have the cam cutout?

i used a model1 9mm upper on my last 223 build.  yes they have a cam cutout.  no they do not have m4 feedramps (i have yet to have a feeding issue but some people feel the need to have certain things so if thats you keep it in mind).  you will need to drill a hole for the gas tube, i had adco do mine (30 bucks).  i dont know what you mean by lock up in the upper though?

Ensure it has the cam pin cutout, then drill the hole for the gas tube and you're good to go.
