A conversion has been offered to me with a ‘new’ WWII Mk2 converted barrel, a ZB33 magazine, and a ‘spares box'(?), all in ‘mint’ condition for $600.00. Price sounds high to me, but I’ve never seen a conversion for sale and don’t know exactly what’s required as far as parts or modifications. Is this a worthwhile project to pursue, notwithstanding the asking price? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
