Just firmed up my order with Tina at Practical Solutions for the upper and folding stock.

They don't have details on the "selector delete" yet but they'll let me know.

I'm pretty sure you should do a run of 11 uppers for the first run. My opinion might be a little biased being #11 on the list though. :D

You guys will be very happy with these uppers. It's the perfect host for the CF-W bolt!
The W bolt combined with this upper creates the smallest 9mm submachine gun with the lowest ROF in the world.

*Practical Solutions is also selling the CF-W bolt. You can order directly from them if you don't already own one.

We have the selector lever deletes now and will be testing them to make sure they work the way we want them to work. Once that's done we will do a video and post them for sale. Anyone on the GG list that wants one and has already placed their order can email Tina and we will add it to your order. We will make a video of them soon.

Will all due respect, I believe the Astra Model F to hold that title.
Thanks for that! While I was aware of the existence of this model, I had no idea the Astra ROF was *that* low. Wow, just freaking WOW! While that is incredibly low, I don't see any advantage, and it may actually be a negative attribute.

If I'm not mistaken, the Astra model F is chambered in 9mm Largo. There are many "9mm" offerings. 9mm Makarov, 9mm Ultra, 9mm Winchester Magnum, and 9mm Kurz, 9mm Largo, and more.

Should I change my description by stating 9x19, or perhaps use the word "modern" subgun? My intent is not to deceive anyone, and I think most people would correctly assume my reference is to those full autos chambered in 9x19 or 9mm Luger/para.

I predict the GG upper combined with the CF-W bolt will quickly become the favorite combo of most M-11/9 owners. Owners of this combo will not be disappointed.

Coffee Freak has closed the list at 60 people which is about 6 months. If you would like a GG upper and bolt and are also willing to wait until the other people have their uppers you can send Tina an email at tina@practicalpage.com and we will assign you a number.

I named all of the upper models I built after things like finish color and the purpose I built them for. "Black Widow" "Gray Ghost" "Black Dragon". The Gray Ghost was built compact for suppressed shooting, with a low profile gas kicker and has a grey parkerized OEM finish. I designed and built a three lug SMG suppressor for it that was very compact and ghostly quiet. CF-SMG9 was the model I registered it under when I form oned it. The design was heavily copied in the form one and SD tactical forums and people referred to it as the "Coffee Can" in those forums because my screen name is CoffeeFreak in those forums also. One of the guys here even used that as his model name here from UT.

Sam posted these a little while ago. http://macmachineguns.com/?product=eliminator-selector-lever-delete-m119

I will start to notify the first 10 this weekend. The price is $450.00 and does not include the sights. They are out of stock and Sam says that's a deal it's a lot of work to build the uppers. More then he thought it was going to be. If you want anything additional like an accessory rail or one of his awesome Mini UZI type folding stocks let him know and he will tell you what the additional charges are after you get the notification your number is up. He is a stocking CF-W bolt seller also, so in addition if you don't have your bolt yet you can purchase that from him also. I hope everyone has a great Easter weekend! _________Mike

Hi.
Just sent Tina @ practical solutions an email to get on the "extended" wait list.

Are there any pictures anywhere of Sam's final production Grey Ghost upper (as seen in your video)? I've found pics of your original designs, and all I can find on practical solutions website is a top view shot. Sorry if I missed them somewhere...

Thanks to CoffeeFreak and Sam for making this happen!!

No sorry, I didn't take any pictures of the production upper and had to send it back to Sam so he could use it for reference when building out the uppers. I don't have one myself right now as I sold mine. :(

The first ten should be shipping in the next couple weeks and I am #1 on the list. I'll post pictures when I get it. I will say it was identical to my build, the one in the pictures except for the charging handle hardware with the return spring as noted in the video.
