A carbine, chambered in 9mm, that runs off of Colt SMG mags and is integrally suppressed… Somebody pinch me! Spike’s Tactical absolutely smashed the proverbial nail on its proverbial head. This thing is awesome. Running on the Spike’s 9mm lower (that accepts standard AR components such as triggers and safeties), this is one recluse that you won’t mind seeing when you open the safe.
While the lower is cool, the proprietary blowback upper is really what makes this rifle sing. The upper receiver resembles a standard AR-15, but that’s where the similarities end. Completely rebuilt to run reliably on 9mm ammunition, the Brown Recluse sports a clipped ejection port, oversized brass deflector, and a Spike’s blowback style 9mm bolt carrier group.
