I was thinking about going back to the old blowback 9mm just for the heck of it and then I saw that video of your DI 9mm. Do you think you might be doing barrels and gas systems for them in the near future? If so I'll need time to save up some money or sell something -- maybe the dog. I guess I need to see if the 9mm will feed off a double stack/double feed mag in a DI setup first. I did it a long time ago but I don't remember if I cycled with a full mag or not. Are there any quirks with a 9mm DI like "needs a light buffer and spring" -- that kinda stuff

I hope to have Project9 ready in the near future (now that's an oxymoron). Right now it feeds off the Tok mags loaded to 90% capacity and the full Uzi mags. As soon as I get the next batch of Standard adapters off the machine we are going to build some Colt mag adapters and get them running. Are there any "quirks" with the 9? They are not quirks, they are opportunities, and the 9 has lots of opportunities. So, having said that if anyone wants to help out on this project here is a list of things I could use.
1. Factory 9mm ammo.
2. Factory 9mm ammo.
3. Factory 9mm ammo.
4. Factory 9mm ammo.
5. A detail results orientated machinist with vast gunsmithing experience who is independently wealthy, can work in adverse conditions with less than pleasant personnel, makes, saves, and updates all cad dwgs, g-code, and .cnc files, doesn't eat much, willing to commute, understands what business is and where money truly comes from, and works for free.
6. A recipe for factory loads.

As soon as I get the next batch of Standard adapters off the machine we are going to build some Colt mag adapters and get them running. I guess I need to be patient and save a bunch of money. I've got the feeling the the Colt style magblock will be "DI" specific. If you can get it to work with the mags that have the bolt-hold-open feature that will be a super plus! |

Any new updates on the DI 9 project? Is the system and magblocks about ready to roll?

We have been working on making the mags run for both the blow back and gas mode. The gas upper likes the shells more horizontal than inclined so we are testing our options. The good part about that is the upper is getting more miles on it.
