Just thinking out loud....

So, we have our beloved M1's and you can buy the somewhat poor Chiappa M1-22, a .22 LR blow back facsimile of the original...

How about going one step further and using the Chiappa bolt design and magazines as a starting point, make a .22 LR blow back conversion kit for the M1 carbine, with a barrel insert?

I don't see any show stoppers here, it would need to be a seperate chamber insert with a screw in liner I suppose, perhaps secured at the crown with a screw on collar, like the old Martini action conversion kits, what do you guys think?
