    Sub Calibre Kits

    Thought that I'd start a new run on the Sub Calibre Kit saga...........

    I have had a discussion regarding the manufacture of the interface block that fits between the standard FAL/L1A1/SLR magazine and the readily available H&K .22" sporter magazine that converts a normal SLR magazine into a .22" sub calibre magazine for the SLR L12 conversion kit.

    They'd be made of machined hard plastic for chapness, unlike the big heavy original UKicon Military spec which were made from steel so as to replicate the weight of a fully loaded rifle (whatever for I'm bound to ask, when the recoil is less than a wet fart!)

    How many out there would be interested in a couple each. NO mags supplied because they're both readily available

    I would join in as well to support the effort. I might never find the rest of the parts and pieces (for sub caliber kit) but I could have complete magazines at least! As long as each block was under $20.00, I'd go for 5.
