My 10" BA 9mm barrel wouldn't cycle hollow points until I installed a Taccom feed ramp in upper. I spoke to BA a few months ago to see if they had corrected, but they hadn't.I have a Spinta Precision barrel and BCG. Works just fine. Back in the day folks had issues with BA 9mm barrels because of the feed ramp geometry on the barrel extension. I don't know if that's still a thing.
I remember guys sending their BA barrels to Macon Armory and Foxtrot to have the barrel extension/throat re-profiled. But like I said, that's been at least 3 years ago. I don't visit the 9mm AR forums anymore since putting mine together. I remember they used to be tedious. Feed ramp geometry, BCG and buffer weight was crucial to get them to run properlyMy 10" BA 9mm barrel wouldn't cycle hollow points until I installed a Taccom feed ramp in upper.

THIS. A buddy had weird extraction issues. Turns out the company shipped a 9mm carbine with a 223 buffer installed. Oops. Once he called it to their attention they quickly shipped him a proper buffer.I remember guys sending their BA barrels to Macon Armory and Foxtrot to have the barrel extension/throat re-profiled.
