40 s&w carbine that uses Glock mags

I am interested in getting myself set up with an AR type carbine that will accept my Glock 23 magazines. I have found two on GB and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on which performs best. Olympic Arms has one and a company I've never heard of has one called Just Right Carbines by ATI. Any comments?

  Take a look at the Keltec P2000 if you can find one.

  A friend has the "Just Right" carbine. It works fine. The feed ramp is a thin piece of metal that doesn't exactly inspire confidence and IIRC you have to remove the buttstock to clean the thing. But the few hundred rounds I put through the thing went smoothly. Accuracy at 50 yds was OK - 3" or so.
  
  The issue trigger was terrible. Worse than AR standard. I replaced it with a RRA 2 stage.

  I have had the ooputunity to fire the JRC, in both 40S&W, and 9mm. I'm not touting that they are perfect, but are a step above, IMHO, of the Hi-Point, and the Kel-Tec carbines.
  
  These are not imports, like a lot of this type of stuff that ATI imports, but are made just about 25 miles from me, right here in good ole, gun-unfriendly, UPSTATE(I should say it is friendlier than downstate by the New York City area), New York. They are actually made in the Fingerlakes Region, in Canandaigua, NY. They make fabulous wine there, in the region, too. Actually ATI is also based in the region, right in Rochester, NY.
  
  They run smothly, and will digest your 23, or the 22 magazines. They are a blast to shoot, and can be used for all kinds of pest control, depending on type and size, out to 100 yards.
  
  Best

  That's very good to know. It gives them extra credit in my book just for being in the good ole USA. Appreciate it.

  Have you looked at the glock receiver conversion units? ATF has made clarification and that pistol -> rifle -> pistol is legal, as long as it isn't in a NFA configuration at any point.
