While building one from a kit how hard would it be to change it from 5.56 to 5.45?

In theory, it should only require a 5.45 barrel and possibly a 5.45 extractor. However, the people who have done these conversions in the past have used Bulgarian kits and went from 5.45 to 5.56. But again, in theory that's all that you should need. But keep in mind that Yugo parts are typically different enough from other countries to make a difference.

When mine arrives I will test mag fit, but the yugo mags look wider to me, so you may have lateral mag movement to worry about.
