according to their website, their kits do not have barrel shroud, I don't know if barrel gate is included.

Please keep us updated. I am curious about condition and completeness of these kits. Thanks.

I was looking at their description of the kit. Since I already have a SA-42, this might be a good way to obtain the parts needed to convert to 8mm. Plus having some spare parts. Even though I'm laid-off right now I might buy one and then sell the parts I don't need. I have plenty of Romy 8mm and I would like to set up the SA-42 to shoot the 8mm. Hmm, be still my beating heart he says as he reaches for the plastic. I really hate to pass up a deal like this.

Could you post some pics of the kit?

At $199, It would probably be worth it just for the extra barrel, not to mention all the other spare parts

What parts of the Receiver did it come with?

I'm glad your barrel looks like new, mine doesn't, but it isn't horrible. Dark bore, no major pitting, looks ok as a blaster. The kit came with the normal cut barrel jacket with finish at about 60%. THe rest of the parts look like they were stripped from brand new guns, everything in an extremely heavy cosmoline. As soon as i get this stripped of the cosmoline, I'll post pics. Overall, pretty pleased with the general condition.

edit to the barrel condition, just cleaned it up. Fortunately it was just very dirty, as it is virtually brand new with no wear marks at all.

Please someone post pictures!

Might I ask what parts missing from the kit?

Off of what you have seen ... is this a good base for a semi-auto MG42?

Out of curiosity, are the '53 parts completely interchangeable with the '42 parts?

Thanks gentlemen!

God bless,

I got mine today. It is just like to SOG kit I got a month ago. Barrel looks new. parts show very little wear. I have not noticed any missing parts (I thought CFS would have taken something out).

Save the $50 and get a CFS kit.
