I just think a .223 hi-point would be another very reliable platform.You know it would love to play in the dirt and keep shooting. I'd get one for everyone in my family.

Remember we are dealing with a blow back action. This does restricts the type of round that can be used.
The Germans at the end of WWII had a Volkssturmgewehr in 7.92x33 that worked as a gas delayed blowback. I've seen pix of it disassembled + the schematic on it. The gas delayed blowback isn't rocket science and the FCG could easily be changed for AR15 style to reduce prices even more.

Very very doable.

What about a new .223 caliber carbine

Ya know? The 45 LC would be a great idea.... all they would have to do is just lengthen the chambering a bit for it on the gun work itself. Of course, that would mean making the grip bigger and also making the magazines to fit.... Maybe then we could get some hi cap mags for it....

After looking at one of the 45 LC cases I have here, you're right... Well, there goes that idea. The whole bolt face would have to be reworked to allow for the headspacing....

I guess it does not, but to keep the price in the Hi-Price range using an existing design might help the price point. But then look at the Keltec SU-16 it is a simple made 223 that is not blow back...

I made designs for a gas-piston hi-point based on the original design...

Damn it, back to the drawing board.
