SIG’s M400 TREAD is moderately-priced premium rifle which gives the consumer the freedom to tailor the rifle to their application and budget. The extensive TREAD line delivers with the sheer number of upgrade options as well as in terms of quality.

Stern Defense makes great AR magazine well adapters and conversion kits which turn your AR Lower into a Pistol Caliber Carbine. They come in 9mm versions for Glock, Beretta and M&P magazines, but the one that caught my eye uses S&W M&P .45 ACP mags and installs in seconds.
