Any suggestions?

Diamondback makes a pretty decent one in their DB15 pistol series.

Leave the flash can.

Personally I'd prefer a better quality red dot on one of mine.  That one might be fine, but I have no experience with them.  Look up some reviews on the internet.  I

If the purpose is short range/pistol/personal defense application I'd remove the magnifier as well.  Just the red dot alone should allow shooting out to a couple hundred yards - Joe does it with a red dot on his pistols.

I'd buy more magazines, too.  Magazines get dropped on hard surfaces, lost, etc. 

More ammo if/when you can find it and the price isn't just stupid.  Then again, you may have to pay stupid prices for it if you have none and need it.

Laser might be handy if conditions are right and it's dependable.

I have lights on two of my AR pistols (.223's) but not on the 9MM.  The 9MM should probably have a light, I've just never gotten around to it.

I have regular Magpul back up sights on my AR pistols.  I'm used to them from the rifles/carbines and I like consistentcy.  They work.  Just because the sights are farther out from you eye than when mounted on a rifle/carbine doesn't mean you can't use them just fine.

I have my lights mounted at the 9 o'clock position on a short rail.  Let's me turn them on/off with my support hand thumb.  Practice working with your accessories/controls.

I also like a hand stop (small one) on the bottom rail near the front of the handguard.

I ditched everything but the red dot the day after I bought it. I just don’t have any need for the extra gadgets since it’s mainly for home defense and a range toy. I’m gonna look for a better light though. The red dot is somewhat of a budget model but it seems to work pretty well and switches from red to green and has different site options to choose from. I added an angled foregrip too.

An angled foregrip is a useful item on any AR pistol.

Yes, definitely helps with grip. I did have to modify it a little to make it fit and look right but I’m a little  particular when it comes to aesthetics.

I'd recommend testing those PMAGs to make sure they're reliable w/ 300blk. Even my 10rd pmags had feed issues if I loaded more than a few rounds. I switched to Lancer dedicated 300blk mags(smoke) and like them a lot. Big improvement over .223 mags.

I’ve only put two full 30 round pmags through it simply because I don’t have much ammo right now. No issue but I will definitely check out those Lancer mags. Thanks!

If you tested them and they work, thats great! I also have other ARs in .223 and 6.5Grendel so having different mags is also a safety consideration, so i didn't need much convincing. Congrats on the new toy. I see a can in your future. . .

Ok so I have an update for anyone interested. Made a few changes.

1. I installed an S&J Nano Linear Comp and ditched the can, just wanted something with a smaller footprint. Didn't notice any difference between the two when shooting.
2. Bought an angled pic rail attachment to mount my TLR and a remote switch.
3. Bought some ERGO rail covers with wire loom.
4. Added a Magpul angled QD rail attachment since there wasn't a lot of room to mount one to the M-Lok.
5. Odin extended mag release button
6. Magpul B.A.D. lever
7. Extended takedown pins. Much easier to grab.
8. Swapped out the Mission First Tactical grip that came on it for a BCM
9. Installed the Franklin Armory Gen3 Binary Trigger. I tried the heavy buffer spring that came with it but was having trouble picking up the next round. Then tried the lighter spring that came with it but
    kept experiencing hammer follow and wouldn't fire on trigger release. The gun is still pretty new, only about 420 rounds through it so far. The failures maybe could've been my fault I guess, but they
    seemed to disappear when I reinstalled the factory spring.
10. Replaced all the PMAG's and steel mag with 6 Lancer 300 blackout specific mags. I like'em so far. Maybe not necessary but I'm a little particular.
11. I have an ambi charging handle on the way.

The only other things I'd like to get, for now , is a Troy Industries ambi mag release and a different red dot. The Sight Mark red/green dot works great, it's just kinda bulky. Also I may eventually swap the 7.5" hand guard for something else but not necessary right now.

I guess you can kinda see the pattern here. I'm going for mostly simple, less bulk, and completely ambidextrous so I can practice in the event I have to use my week arm to operate.

Nice build ^.

I set up a TLR the same way on my Scorpion pistol, with a tape switch on top. It's a great compact light. And I really like the Lancer 5.56 mags. That all I buy any more.

Yeah, so far so good on the Lancer mags. I have 6 now and I’ll probably get 2-4 more.
