low number 1903 conversion to 22 rim fire

[RCS]

Chris, The Numrich 22 rf liner requires a feed ramp because it is inserted into the 30-06 barrel with the rear cone shaped breech. If you read my first post at the top, "install a rear extension to fit the M2 bolt" concerning the barrel liner. If you ever notice a SA M2 22rf barrel at a gunshow or anywhere else, there isn't any feed ramp such as the Numrich barrel. Notice the photo of the breech end of the barrel, that is the extension with the liner installed. Robert

Now I'm really puzzled...I'll have to pull my 1922-M2 out as well as my Numerich Kit and compare to your photo and statement re: the feed ramp. Interesting topic. Thanks.

Chris, The Numrich 22 rim fire conversion kit for the TSMG also has the H&R Reising magazine inserted into a 20rd TSMG magazine and the liner for the 45 acp barrel also has the feed ramp


All you have to do is look at the rear breech of a SA M2 22 rim fire barrel -

RCS - sent you an E-mail ,

i had a friend help me out is making my own conversion of this type a number of years ago , i installed it in a remington M1903A3-4gery that i had aquired and had attachment to , it had issues shooting 3006 and made a good candidate for a fun little 22cal plinker and still looks good

Thanks for the photos of the rear extension, I think you had posted these photos a while back as I remember them. Robert
