*Many aftermarket drop-in triggers use modified hammers and can be temperamental in Blowback systems. For the most consistent results a Mil-Spec fire control group is recommended. However, in our testing, these aftermarket fire control groups should work in most circumstances: POF, Hiperfire EDT and 24 series, Geissele, Timney, Rock River, and Spike’s Tactical.

However, those little rounds are pretty tough on the internal components of your AR-15, add a suppressor and things get even harder. That doesn't mean you forget it and stay with a full-size weapon, you just need to bring the right parts to the game.

Run or Fight

The most critical part of the equation inside your .45 ACP AR is the .45 ACP bolt carrier group.

When you place a high-quality Kaw Valley .45 ACP bolt carrier group in the heart of your AR, your gun will run and you can fight.
