Well, it seems like you can put AR-pattern parts on any weapon nowadays. Maybe someone could just design an AR lower with fixed magazine that can only be loaded with stripper clips to go along with the new upper. Like I said, it'd be a new gun, but it'd be interesting to design.

Or maybe a new lower with a fixed magazine that would be compatible with a regular upper? The rounds would have to be loaded from the bottom. You'd be able to eliminate the pistol grip as well if necessary.
