I've converted 2 semi autos myself, but it's not something I enjoy doing, and I no longer have the use of a machine shop to do it in. It never hurts to ask.

Since the ATF allows for front fire now, I have considered buying a few of the commercial 9mmPAK replicas, and I probably will. Zoraki makes select fire pistols that have a decent look to them.

Over the years I have picked up a few already converted guns from stembridge and other houses and used them in various productions. Not the $7000 hero guns used by Matt Damon and such from the propstore. But when they were selling off stock for decent prices.
I'm still kicking myself for not picking up some of the weapons from the original RED DAWN or COMMANDO when they were being sold off. Compared to TODAY'S class III prices, those transferable Valmet M78/83 LMGs were a steal.......
