I built up a Italianicon (1/2" short) on a BMR reciever with all BMR / BMB parts except the barrel, which is a SA barrel cut down by the Italians and rechambered to 7.62. I was lucky when I ordered the barrel and op rod from Sarcos they sent me a BMR op rod that was shortened and marked on the side 7.62 mm 2. Sent the whole project to SA INC. to be reparked. I put 200 rounds of the Germanicon 7.62 that was on the market last year and not a single problem. My Italian Garandicon has since become a safe queen. I am now on the hunt for a "PB" reciever to finish my other Italian off.
