    What kind of bolt face does it use? And what types of power? Looks like it would be quite a punchy bush hunting round

    no build thread, simple barrel swap. NZAR15.com sell a North Eastern Arms barrel/bolt/mag kit. thought I needed another caliber for my ARs
    and as said, cheap ammo is available gives me a break from reloading 223

    So, decided that my spare 223 waitaki would look better with a bigger hole down the middle and jammed on the front of my Quarter Circle 9mm carbine. Asked how this might be achieved, and got some great responses from various people inc Gundoc, but ended up going with what @Tentman suggested and rang the guy who made it, Mark at Waitaki Engineering. He said "Sure, no problem, send it down. How does $30 sound?" "It sounds very good!", so I did just that. A couple of days later (including time for the courier to go from one end of NZ to the other, Mark does not fuck around it seems), it was ready to come back. Rang me up, said it was ready, and gave me his bank details. Then asked why I had decided to go down that path. Replied that it was my spare Waitaki, ie I had others. He then told me not to worry about paying seeing as I had a few! I did anyway, but what great customer service that was, I'm bloody impressed.

    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Real guns start with the number 3 or bigger and make two holes, one in and one out
