Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and wish i had found it sooner at the beginning of my build. I'm huge into ARs and build all of mine, but I've never built a dedicated pistol caliber AR. I decided the 10mm would be perfect for this build and after looking around for a few days i started ordering parts. I could really use any recommendations you guys have to offer for this little project as I'm new to 10mm and new to dedicated pistol caliber ARs. I've got a .45 cal lower amd upper receiver on order as well as an 8" 1:16 twist blowback barrel and bolt carrier on order. Also ordered some Glock 20 mags and was disappointed that i couldnt find any Glock big sticks. What info or parts would you guys turn me toward?

That is pretty much the collective wisdom of our 10mm AR experts.
Thanks for the link, I've been reading through it for a while and some of it has been helpful, but i still have a few questions. How does the performance and reliability of a 10mm AR compare between DI and blowback? What about the performance between 1:10 twist and 1:16 twist?
For a big stick look at Kris Vector. They had some sort of extension for G21 mags...which should fit a G 20. Might even be able to buy them already finished.
I had an Olympic 10mm upper several years ago. The thing ran flawlessly.
