In discussions with Sam at Practical Solutions (our exclusive retailer) about the size differences between the M10, M11/NINE, and the M11, we think we might be able to do a M11 version of the Tenko adapter. We will know more once we have the M11/NINE version designed. I get that there are several very passionate M11 owners. We aren't looking to leave that model of Mac style RR out. We just nee to see what will be involved. This is no guarantee that the M11 version will be made. I was under the impression that the M11 receiver was much shorter than the M10. While the M11 is shorter, we do have some "wiggle room" with our current buffering system. It will be very tight if it fits, but we do plan to evaluate the cost and feasibility of a M11 version.

If you can get it to work, I think the small frame M11 would be the nicest of the three for size reasons.

I very much agree with that. But that is the problem. Getting the mechanism to fit within the smaller receiver. If the current mechanism doesn't fit then that would require a redesign. Our biggest concern would be the additional engineering costs and the relatively low production numbers to spread those additional costs out to.

Almost 1.5" shorter, isn't it? It will be interesting to see what it looks like if you can make it work. Maybe it will be thinner and lighter as well. BTW, what is the weight of an M10 with a standard 16" barreled upper and your adaptor? I might have missed that somewhere.

Don’t know what internal tube and buffer you use, but the ultra short ones like battle arms design use a tiny buffer that is weighted w tungsten. You might be able to use their half sized buffer
