DDLES lower

MrTheBigOx · Sep 23, 2016

Hey guys had one of these lowers sitting in the gun cabinet for a couple years. Since they went bust and you can't get there bits here now I was wondering what bolts/ upper combinations would be compatible with the lowers since a ordinary bolt isn't ramped and will tear glock mags to bits

Ramping a bolt should be super easy if you know the proper depth and length of the ramp.
If you know someone who has one, ask to get the measurements and compare your side by side.

Most 9mm bolts I've seen are ramped, but I'm in Murica and don't have a clue as to what you guys have in New Zealand.

Both QC10 and JP make 9mm bolts that will run with a Glock mag.

You can also machine a bolt to work with a Glock mag.

I'm pretty sure any upper will work.

Yes, I use an off the shelf upper receiver with my JP bolt for glock mags.

Cool thanks guys, I was pretty sure that would be the answer, but bits can be a pain to get here sometimes so before I went to any effort I thought I'd check

Got to say whatever to shake up that Matt guy. Only way to beat him is get in his head. That's trash talk 101.

You can beat Matt by just practicing, cause that's something he never does.

Is DDLES now quarter circle 10? I seem to recall I heard they changed their name or sold the design patent or something like that.

I think they went out of business and qc 10 brought their tooling or something this is running a qc10 bolt and barrel I might buy one of their proper uppers if in come here it has a aero precision one now I think

OK, now that I'm over the initial shock that you would consider PCC, you're welcome to try out my Beretta.

Have to warn you though, It kicks like a .22.
