Right,
I ordered the Glock plates meaning the left and right grip plates.
That's more expensive than just the little plate for the mag catch for the other conversions.

Do they have a hydraulic buffer that will fit the shorter Banshee buffer tube?
That is a great question. I assumed that the hydraulic buffer would fit the standard AR buffer tube on the Banshee. If it is this KynShot buffer, it appears that it would.
The other question I would have is what hydraulic buffer do you use in a RDB gun? (9mm may be too stiff, as you have the delayed blowback....)
The Banshee 300 has a shorter buffer tube than a standard milspec tube.
I'd have to measure mine then. I ordered a MkGs 300 in 9mm, and then contacted CMMG and got the 8" upper from the 200 series put on (the shorter barrel was too short for my taste), and they included the 300-series upgrades with the longer upper.
I don't know if they put the 300 upgrades on a 200 for me, or if they put a longer barrel on the 300 lower with the other 300 upgrades. That sounds like a job for the measuring tape to figure out.
Either way, it is such a fun gun to shoot, and is already buttery smooth and soft.
The cool thing about running the RDB with endomag on an A5 lower with a kynshot buffer and 5.56 tubb flatwire spring is that I can swap uppers and be shooting 5.56 with no lower changes.
It’s obviously longer than the way CMMG does theirs, but it’s better for what I want to do with my setup: CQB training.

Thanks!
Like the minimalistic look. Imagine that it's relatively lightweight too.
I put the law folder on mine so it is more compact. Too bad the folder assy weighs as much as the gun. 
New AR 45 (glock mag) from a Joe Bob Outfitters (aka New Frontier Armory) lower and CMMG Radial Delayed Blowback BCG and Barrel as a braced pistol. Again, this is a PISTOL and not a RIFLE; would not want someone to think I was building something not on the "up and up".
I like the way it turned out; it balances nicely, I can't wait to try it at the range.
Now, if I can figure out how to get the OAL to 29" AND able to put my Rugged Obsidian on it, I will apply for a Form 1 to SBR it. I am going to investigate a Sylvan folder plus a VLTOR A5 to see if that does it (with out assembling it, obviously). The pin and weld extension option is a last resort.

These were just on sale for Cyber Monday I think for $99. Don’t own one myself. Not sure if I want to go this route or just get a 80% dedicated 9mm lower

Yeah, you don’t save much going dedicated lower vs magwell adapter.

But … I have this really cool 5D tactical jig that I haven’t used in awhile. Lol. Any recommendations on 80% AR-9’s ?

PCC AR9 reading has me running in circles. I did not do any dedicated thread but maybe I should.
I have 2 spare AR stripped lowers so I decided to take the plunge to get my feet wet. Not sure if I'll be up to my ankles or my neck
I ordered a 9mm kit, an additional 9mm upper assembly and Endo mag 3 pack.

endo mag
https://www.opticsplanet.com/mean-arms-endomag-9mm-pmag-30-magazine-conversion-adapter.html
worse comes to worse I can dump what I bought and cut my losses. I"m looking mostly for the experience towards what ever is better and work my way up (yes and spend more $)
I did see some reports of success with the endo mags and these PSA uppers.
What can I expect from this kit/combo?
What is the basic issue on AR triggers and 9mm blowback uppers?
I read they are "hard" on the triggers, but what exactly is the issue and what do dedicated designed AR9 trigger assemblies do to midigate the issues w/ blowback?
Do those issues go away with Radial Delayed Blowback uppers?
