Just order one thru IRG when they become available. Unfortunately the restricted 16.5" barrel is a dealbreaker for me as I refuse to own paperweights.

Hopefully they make a 18.5" one day.

I don't buy paperweights either, although I do have an RPAL for pistols. I'm on the same page as you there.



But, but, what about the Zombie apocalypse, nobody's going to complain then!
Jokes aside, already got myself a 2.5 gen, can afford to be patient for the NR version to come out.
 
I'd buy one, i really like 300AAC Blackout as a cartridge and it works fine on the deer here too. Reloading is straightforward and i have even made the cartridge from 223 brass + annealed. Cheap to run on the whole.

Candocad.
 
I'm clueless when it comes to custom but are there any barrel makers that could be hired to do a production run of 18.5(6)" barrels?

Production run probably wouldn't fly. It seems everyone wants something different when it comes to swaps. The battle rifle guys have been talking about different caliber m1a barrels for quite a while with no real progress for this very reason.

That said, I'd totally buy a NR .300 tavor swap. Herron Arms is the go-to for semi auto conversions.
 
If we were allowed to own and use suppressors I'd be all over the 300 Blackout, but I don't get the appeal given our legal limitations. What am I missing?
 
What barrel twist would be optimal for a Canadian version of the 300 BLK kit?
Without suppressors (in Canada), maybe it's better to optimize the barrel for supersonic loads.
Gassing the kit properly would also be easier when optimized for supersonic.

One could source the blanks (from a barrel company) and contract some other company (or companies) to make the kit.
I would say the barrel would be the easiest part of the whole kit. Determine what twist rate you need and what lenghts, chamber reamers are available, and the rest is routine work for a gunsmith.

Then there is the barrel extension, the gas block, and the process required to headspace the barrel with a specific bolt.
This last one is the more complicated part of the whole process, unless a bolt ships with the kit (like IWI does it), in which case the bolt itself would be the most complicated to make (and raise the price quite a bit as well).
Or send a bolt you already have, to be used for headspacing the kit - then one can use the same bolt for both barrels (or more).

It can be done, but for what price?

Any 223 can become a 300 BLK by swapping the barrel and it has a lot more reloading options than 7,62x39. So if you have an AR15 you can just swap the upper and keep everything else and you have a 300 blk.

Contact Herron Arms if you want a 300blk conversion.
 
I am interested, but frightened to ask how much..........

One lung + 1st born?

Should probably call or email them. I have zero interest in that caliber or platform so have no idea other than he has done the conversions and was the first in canada with a working one.
