Very nice. I've always wanted a De Lisle carbine type of rifle.

Another dream gun of mine. Why doesn't somebody do a factory run?

View Quote They are not as nice as Kimber of Oregon's Model 82 center fire, the design from which they were cloned, but their build quality is on par with any $500-600 bolt gun. The wood is rather plain. The matte black bluing and absence of external tool marks makes up for that. |

I'd read a few reviews that claimed the fit and finish was terrible. Glad to hear that isn't 100% true.

Old thread, but still curious about these conversions.
I found this write up and started thinking i might need to have one built. Anyone know a gunsmith that can do it? |

My odd thought of the day.
We have bolt action uppers for the AR in 5.56 Why can't the same concept work for a 9mm? |

Does anyone have the thread specs for the barrel?
I was thinking I might be able to have one spun up with a Savage style barrel nut to make installation simple. ETA - IIRC the receiver face isn't flat so I'd have to fix that too. |

Been wanting something like this for a while. PTG makes bottom metal for a Rem 700 to take AR15 mags. CMMG makes 9mm conversion mag kits. Bolt head is the same as 223Rem. All I would need is a barrel. My only concern is reliable feeding. Thoughts?

I’ve got one just like it I built off the tcm with a green mountain blank. It’s getting my pst 1-4 when I get caught up on my other projects.

Take a 223 MVP, open up the bolt face a little, swap out the 223 barrel with a 9mm barrel, and then use an Endomag converter to convert a Pmag to take 9mm. |

Wow! I have wanted a Spanish Destroyer carbine in 9mm, and those are rare enough, I love that the .22TCM can be converted, although not as common as the Mossberg MVP!
I will def be adding the MVP in .223 to my short list to convert to 9mm. Currently I have two bolt action .45acp's. I really enjoy shooting pistol calibers due to the ease and rapid (lack of boring case prep) reloading. |

3 year necro bump to this thread.
Does anyone have a good smith they recommend for doing a 9mm conversion to a Rock Island 22TCM bolt gun? |
