Hello - I'm thinking of buying a 9mm upper to put on my RRA AR15 lower with a RRA 2-stage trigger that looks like the attached photo. (Yes I know the 9mm uppers are hard to find.) I've been doing some reading, so I understand the concept behind ramping the 9mm bolt.
But I still have two questions:
1) Is it a good idea to ramp the bolt regardless of the type/make of AR hammer in the lower. For example, if I would get another AR lower with a DPMS parts kit and hammer, would I still be advised to ramp the 9mm bolt? (I realize that you don't have to ramp the bolt if you're using a 9mm hammer, but I want to stay with my AR FCG.)
2) Some of the reading I've done says that the 9mm bolt is hard on the lower. In which case I would definitely get another lower, or even a dedicated 9mm AR. Will I damage my RRA lower if I switch back and forth between my 9mm and .223 uppers?
Thanks
