The 10mm option is really cool. I always thought either 10mm or .357mag would make an awesome subgun. I also know that CMMG makes some of the best AR pistols around. That said, I have 2 friends who have bought AR pistols in 9mm and said they wished they had gotten a CZ Scorpion instead. AR pistols seem really finicky to me, and the twang of the spring right next to your ear is annoying.
I have one, I also have a CZ scorpion. Both are great guns. I like my Banshee more than my scorpion so I shoot it more. Mine is in 9mm. If you're looking for a 9mm AR, the Banshee is probably the best one available.

Is it just common controls with other AR's, or something more?Did you buy the upper and use your own lower, or buy a complete out of the box gun?

I like the ergonomics of the AR platform better. The stock trigger on the CMMG is better, the radial blowback is awesome. Even after a trigger upgrade on the scorpion, the CMMG is still better. The safety selector on the scorpion needs to be upgraded so it doesn't dig into your hand and the stock grip is uncomfortable. I've done all the upgrades and still like my Banshee better. Don't get me wrong, the scorpion is an awesome gun and someone with no AR experience may think it's the best gun ever. If I could only have one though, it's the Banshee hands down.

That's a really cool looking gun, btw.I'm curious as to why you think the AR platform is so much better for this? I really want to like AR's. Its just that it seems every one I've ever shot has something weird with it.
Would the CMMG Banshee but comparable to say the Sig MCX or MPX Rattler?These things a definitely cool as he11 looking.
I don't understand the appeal of rifle-caliber pistols. A 5.56 out of a 5" barrel has roughly the same kinetic energy as a 9mm out of the same length barrel.
