Had to snip the follower about 1/4" to make room for the mag block.Īnd the final product- 1/16 under the feed ramp with 40 ish degree angle. On the breechface they'd stamped it in 1/16' tall numbers, '7.62x39'. The barrel was fully chambered and I just screwed it on. It consisted of the barrel, a plastic follower and spring and a basicly shaped magazine blocker for 98. Three hours, two skinned knuckles, and a whole lot of sanding the rifle feeds like your aunt at a catfish buffet. The 'Kit' for this conversion came from GPC. So I scrounged some poly material, like cutting boards are made of, from my buddy who owns a glass shop. We're dealing with a cartridge 14 mm shorter, so clearly it's going to nose dive in the mag. There is some debate on exactly what 7.62 is safe to shoot in these rifles, Cetme, Nato or 308 winchester but I won't go into that here. The biggest issue is getting it to feed correctly. They were originally chambered in 7x57mm Mauser and many were converted to 7.62 post war. I'm waiting on it, should be here in a day or three. I contacted Ace Dube with MCA Sports and he made a chamber adapter for me. Three Mauser C96s were used in the killing of Spanish prime minister Eduardo Dato in 1921. Inspiration struck flipping through a reloading manual. A 39 conversion would require either setting the barrel back and rechambering it or a. Only downside is ammo, and although I do reload, I don't like the idea of forming brass. Did they make any converted Spanish Mausers into 7.62x39. Had the barrel cut and crowned, a walnut stock made, and put a Weaver k4 in Redfield rings.

The advantage of the 7 x 57 AI would be a marginally increased case capacity wich might give you an extra 25 to 100 fps at the same pressure. it comes with one 5 round polymer magazine. after converting it i shot 2 mags through it to test it out and it has been a safe queen ever since. the conversion was professionally done by a local gunsmith using all usa parts and is perfect. If you are reloaded a 7.62 x 39 to 65,000 PSI do you think it would be safer than reloading a 7 x 57 AI to 40,000 PSI or reloading a 300 WSM to 50,000 PSI? Description: this is a converted siaga 7.62x39mm rifle with a tapco folding stock and grip. It would be just as easy for you to blow up this action reloading for 7 x 57 as it would be reloading for 7 x 57 AI.Ħ0,000 PSI is 60,000 PSI no matter what cartridge you put it in. Keep in mind that the pressure of any reload depends on what you put into and onto the cartridge. Since there are no factory rounds for the 7 x 57 AI the you would have to reload. weaver (in stock) - 4.7 (7) maxima 2-piece steel bases. brownells (in stock) - 4.5 (2) top mount bases - 11-62. brownells (in stock) - 5.0 (1) barrel/receiver dies. shilen (in stock) 3.0 (2) barrel/receiver taps. Austria-Hungary: Some captured on the Eastern Front during World War I. shilen (in stock) - 4.0 (6) fitted barrels for small ring mauser 93-96. They are rarely seen since the Type 38 is most commonly used weapon converted by China after World War II. I aint purty now but any further devaluation of my looks might be catastrophic to my marriage. A few Type 30 carbines were converted to use 7.62x39 ammo with minimal changes. Course I dont design Rockets for a livin either, SOOOOO would a REAL ROCKET SCIENTIST PLEASE stand up & chime in. but all things considered equal I cant see where the AI should be higher pressure. would it ? Of course You could over load a std. Mauser 98 Military rifle barrels 726 Mauser 98K action 728 Mauser rifle model 98 729 Carl Gustav model 96 730 Wehrmann-contour 732 Orig. thought about an AI rechambering, I know these arent overely strong but I cant see where an AI conversion would necessarily be a higher pressure Rnd. I have an old 95 spanish mauser in 7x57, Its light, cute so Im goin to play w/it.
