LewmanArms Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 (edited) This is something we have been working on for a bit. We are expecting to be starting production on these soon. At 1/3 the cost of regular 8mm or 762 nato it has intrigued quite a few MG collectors.

LewmanArms Posted June 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 Chrome lined barrels are being tested now. We are opening up a pre-sales list. We will begin with customers who want to supply their own top cover, feed tray, and barrel extensions as this will cut a bit of cost off the kits on both sides. See breakdown below. Modify customer supplied parts, supply booster assembly, supply bolt head, supply and headspace barrels. $650 + $300 per barrel. Our barrels are 4150, chrome lined, and parkerized. The booster assembly is totally adjustable to allow you to dial in the gas to each gun, also allows cyclic rate adjustments. The kits DO run semi auto guns as well. These are a true drop in conversions, no mods to your springs or your gun. Drop the parts in/on and run 7.62x39. The conversion uses original MG42/M53/MG3 belts, it does like tighter belts as the rounds tend to fall out of looser belts. The belts are easily pinched to tighten them up as you load the ammo. We will be placing our barrel order based on the pre-sale list. The barrels are the longest item to get and once we have a list of customers we can get lead times on the barrels. Email Jessica to be placed on the list. Name, phone number, email address, and how many barrels. Jessica@lewmanarmsmanufacturing.com You will be updated from there VIA email. Once we do the 1st batch of customer supplied parts kits we will open up general sales with us supplying all the parts. Stay tuned for those kits availability. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uc-RPv7WtUM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
