I have a Eygptian FN49 in excellent condition. It is basically brand new and not been fired much, or at all for that matter. It's mainly made up and assemblied from parts,though brand new.

My question is this. How hard would it be to convert it to 30-06 or 7.62. Would I be correct in thinking, that an exchange of the barrel and gas cylinder assemlby, be all that is required? Am looking at converting it for the availablity of common ammuntion. Which the 8x57 isn't in the US.
