+1 vote for dealing with markus... hes helped me out in the past with issues I've had with my swiss arms rifle. and he didn't get them banned by the RCMP.
Exactly
While you're free to spend your money however you like I would like to point out that the Swiss Arms magazine design is actually stronger and more reliable than a STANAG pattern magazine. The money you would spend on the replacement lower would buy you a few more SA mags and still leave you money for more ammo.
I understand the thought pattern of wanting one magazine for all your rifles but in this case and especially with some cheaper aftermarket magazines available it just doesn't make a lot of sense to spend that much money just to make your rifle use a crappier and less reliable magazine.
When I had my Classic Green I had 9 SA pattern magazines for it (mostly Speer) and while I do find the mag release lever and rock in motion a little more cumbersome than my AR's it's nothing you can't get used to and with some practice just as fast with.
Sorry, I don't know who carries the lowers.
We have these if it helps: http://www.canadiangunnutz.com/foru...gs-in-Swiss-Arms-rifles?p=7393745#post7393745
how much?
We don't have any magazines in stock, so $200 for the kit less magazine (it has drawings/details for magazine fitting.

The SA magazines have another advantage most people never mention.... They allow for a longer COAL than STANAG magazines, so when hand loading, you have more options for bullet seating depth.
The Canada Ammo magazines for them are affordable and of excellent quality.
Additionally, magazine changes can be just as fast as AR magazine changes with a little prectice. I'm actually faster changing mags with my Swiss than most people are with their AR.
