Have anyone here tried reconfiguring their own rifles? What I mean is changing some of the parts that make up the the whole rifle to work. Do you do it on your own or have it done by someone else?
I took mine from a loaded to a M21 clone. Perhaps some of it I could have done, but to be honest most of it I couldn't. I research everything so I was informed and bought what I thought would improve my rifle to where I wanted it to be. I then hired a my local gunsmith whom I knew had the skill. We talked about threw the process keeping me in the loop. Fitting the stock better to me. My parts his skill the rifle is quite nice and more than expected.
I'd assess what you want and ask yourself if you can do it. If your unsure you should perhaps have it done. the parts for these are not that cheap. Good luck with your rifle…
ive done it alot of times including swapping parts on my garands to make them period correct and ive built 3 of my ar's and a couple of ak's from parts kits. if its within your skill range, try it, if not find a gunsmith
