    Norinco barrel swap, 9mm to 7.62

    Sorry for what will seem like an easy question. What do you need to change to go from 9mm to 7.62 x 25. Is there more than the barrel itself? I know that my Norinco 213 would have to have the spacer removed in the mag well and a different mag. Anything else? What about going from 7.62 to 9mm?
    Thanks

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.

    Isn't 7.62x25 a snappier cartridge than 9mm? Are pressures ok for the change?

    I believe that the Russianicon Takarav (sp) can be had with both barrels. How close are the Russian and Norico to being the same.
    Thanks again.

    You're correct they can! I forgot about that one. Also I have a PPsH barrel in 9mm. Only change we made on that was the barrel. I guess it would be OK after all.
