Hi all,
I had a question and I thought I would ask it here.
I bought recently one of the drill-demilled training rifles from J&G Sales. Its a 1958 Ishapore No1, MKIII with the pin in the receiver. I had to go through the background check on it, as its still considered a firearm.
Question is, could it be reactivated by converting it to 9mm? I know, I know, strength of the receiver may be an issue, but is it possible? I really wish I could do something with the barrel as is, its in really nice condition, the rifling looks almost new! I know, I would have to change out the barrel to chamber 9mm. Just curious, that's all.
At most, it will just sit in a box with misc. parts for my lifetime.
