Just for giggles anyway. Probably won't leave the white board anytime soon but if I were going to do it, what's the best route to take?
This guy did it with an AR47

Are there better options? Is the AR47 bolt too weak for to handle that kind of abuse long term? Would the RPK be better? The AR47 gas system just seems a lot more air tight to me.
Ohio Ordinance makes a ridiculously expensive M240-SLR

I would assume the M240-SLR customized hardware is much more robust than the AR47.
Or are there better options than re-inventing the Vickers gun?
Dreaming of a land where I have money to burn, lead is $30 a ton, NFA rules don't exist and I have unlimited vacation time.....
