Not a simple build.
I would suggest you join Weaponsguild if you want the exact details of what is involved

The basic requirements are as follows:
Semi auto only
Closed bolt
Unmodified FA parts cannot be installed.
May be platform specific requirements past that.

Parts set with barrel.
New semi receiver or welding up a cut donor.
Installing a striker or hammer fired ignition system.
Denial features for legal compliance.
Test fire and tweak to run.
( Its not an inexpensive build )
