    I am interested in the semi auto conversion, do you have an estimate on costs ?  The receiver that was cut is from

    a 1941 Johnson rifle. It was cut thru the rear sight dovetail,so I will need a ejector assembly and locking cam and

    roller assembly. The firing pin was also cut, other than those items I think it is complete. I do have the rear sight.

    Thanks

      Bob,

           Send me a picture of the parts set laid out and it will give me a better idea of what you will need.

      Brian,

      I am unable to send photo's. The JLMG was a working gun before it was cut. what would be ideal for me would be to have it welded back together then machined back to spec. Do you know anyone that is able and willing to do this ?

      Thanks

      Bob,

           If it was a working JLMG and is so marked, welding it back together is illegal unless it was registered in the 1986 amnesty.  If you have the registration papers from the amnesty, you can apply to the ATF for the appropriate permit to restore it.  If you want to restore it as a semi auto, use a modified JSAR receiver.  This is acceptable to the ATF.  Even welding together an unregistered  MG receiver is illegal.
