And it's a stupid idea
But it can tho
It's not a fundamentally dumb idea but adapting existing platforms for it would be difficult.
You can't just extendo the receiver and expect it to go well
a 7.62 NATO chamber and action is already rated for the pressure
That's not how that works
So enlighten us.
So the problem is milling the chamber to properly fit 7.92x57
Rofl let him speak a minute
Then you can fit a 7.92 barrel
It's a text chat you dumb fuck
The action of a 7.62 NATO to saami spec is rated for a similar pressure but for probably half the time
Not like you screaming over people in VC
Oh and a 7.62 and 7.92 barrel are in fact different
You're talking before he has a chance to respond you barbarian
7.92 barrel is 0.3mm wider, yeah.
Although you should use either 5R or polygonal
And if you can make it or have it made, it's not a stretch for it to have the appropriate mounting points for whatever receiver you want
It's not just the bore
An 8mm round has nearly twice the interference
An 8mm projectile to spec is actually above 8mm.
8.2mm
precisely
Which is why this hinges on getting a new barrel made for 7.92
The interference you'd get in a .308 bore would be .0160
Which is boom
NEW BARREL
A 7.92 BARREL
For the love of God if you're already making a new barrel make a new chamber too
WHAT AREN'T YOU GETTING
And the chamber being modified to accept 8mm Mauser Rofl. And probably the magazines.

All of these are no
lmao do you metallurgy
This is the wrong channel at any rate
<#508382218612375565>
As an engineering major I have to do metallurgy so I don't approve dumb shit
You should really rethink your major then
Don't send them down there
I'm talking about some autistic guns
