TNW ASR caliber conversion kits?

[Freyr_255]

So just a quick question, did these conversion kits ever make it into Canada? If they did, who has them?

HiCal has a few parts.
Besides them, have you tried contacting TNW in the US about ordering parts? A prairie guy who made a video recently about his TNW ASR said they're really good about shipping parts to Canada. Haven't had a need myself, but that would seem a good thing to tey.

Thanks for that. Definitely not a cheap thing to do. Hell it's almost as cheap just to buy a new gun and have two...lol! Well, straight conversion would be cheaper, but going between 9mm and 10mm requires a new lower by the look of it, at which point one might as well just buy a new gun.

Not cheap at all. I did buy a spare barrel for mine, in 9mm, and with tax and shipping it cost 45% of what I'd paid a few months earlier for the whole carbine. Which is a bit silly considering TNW sells the barrel, lower with grip, and appropriate bolt for a given calibre for $199USD, which is well under $300CAD.

Just another case of the 'Canadian tax' same as we've long paid for magazines and books. Or like the Vancouver gasoline surcharge, which an investigation by the BC government found to be unjustifiable, unexplainable, yet which is still being charged. They charge what they charge because they can do it.

I have a 45ACP conversion kit that I might list shortly.
Never used since I went with another gun.
