Yes- I know just about everyone is asking themselves "why" would anyone want to do such a thing? Bear with me. I had a Chinese Mak at one time (never should have sold it) and liked it. Over the years I have come to really like DAO in my handguns. I became a much better shooter when I started using DAO autoloaders.
Now, could a gunsmith do it safely? My concern is: the gun has a safety/decocking lever. If the hammer is dropped without the use of the safety i.e. because the hammer was modified for DAO, would it fire again and or go full auto? Not knowing much about the internals, I don't know if it has a trigger safety or not.
I am thinking of getting one of the Bulgarians, converting it to DAO, getting a trigger job, and a better set of sights.
