Converting Blank Firing Guns to Fire Live

Almost Real weight, feel, and sound of a real gun, but without the projectile (unless you want them to, i.e. live fire conversion).

One of the most common types is the Turkish Retay pistol, that can be legally imported and owned in the US in its blank firing state. [As Sold]

Blank firing pistols available to order online from around £100 are being converted into Firearm.

[Cant be sold legally]  

One of the most common types is the Turkish Retay pistol, that can be legally Owned

.[Only in a few US States] 

 

“Most notably we’ve seen a rise in Retay pistols which have Turkish origin. These pistols can be converted with relatively basic knowledge.[Gunsmithing]

SAFETY TIP::

Even if you convert it which is fairly simple the .380 have to be shaved or use hollow points or they will jam in the clip I have converted a few never had one blow up but I do use real chambered .380 barrels from a gunsmith and they shoot just fine---------------

---------Use a .32 with a homemade steel barrel for absolutely no explosion danger, and if u want a safe 380 converted use a titanium barrel.

-----------------

Yes my friend but when you cut that barrel and drill 12mm and put a new barrel from real gun -

---------------------9mm blank gun to fire 380. All i changed was the barrel. The slide works perfect.

Jackel Dual which is a replica of the Beretta M92 and its full automatic.-------------------------------

--------------------------------7 mm bits and 8 millimeter you are going to need a few of them or you cut the barrel almost all the way off leaving just the chamber and about an inch to 2 inches go on eBay and buy a rifled barrel they're really cheap

you can get them for as little as three barrels for 19 bucks then you take J-B Weld and JB Weld the Barrel in and then you can either use real ammo.

380 auto or you can use the blank ammo and drill out the green plastic and put a BB in the blank ammo

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------. Zoraki make good slides and reinforced ones to. The 918 with a stainless steel barrel is enough to keep the pressure where it needs to be. kimar 92 or 911 ? they are way cheaper they’re cheaply made 911 they are completely bad made guns mine had a push off with the hammer and went off

For Zoraki 917 you recommend .32 acp or .380 acp. zoraki 914 is converted carefully, it is not easy to convert those unless you don't care about the front sighs

Swapping The Barrel------

To convert the blank firing gun to fire real ammo the first thing you will need to do is replace the blank barrel with a steel barrel.---------------------------- 

                           Issues to address when converting the blank gun to fire live ammunition include:

• Cartridge dimensions
• Weak points on the blank gun
• Sourcing a barrel or making one
• Ammo availability

If you have a pile of .380 ACP then you know you want to go with that caliber, the same could be said for the .32 ACP. If you can’t buy guns where you live then you probably can’t get ammo either.----------------------------------------------

   The 9mm P.A.K blank firing guns fire a blank cartridge that has an overall length very similar to a live .380 ACP or .32 ACP rounds. 

 380 ACP Ammo

 

32 ACP VS. 380 ACP

If the world were a different place, and you could carry a handgun wherever you pleased without raising suspicion, you might not consider a pocket pistol cartridge like the 32 ACP or the 380 ACP. Still, a small cartridge has its merits.

A smaller handgun like a Ruger LCP weighs under 10 ounces. That’s a lot more comfortable to tuck into your waistband than a five pound Magnum Research BFR. A smaller cartridge means smaller recoil, which makes self-defense accessible to those with less experience or a slighter build. (We know a 95 pound lady who can empty her Walther PPK on a target like she’s shooting lasers out of her fingertips.) A smaller handgun is also more affordable, putting self-defense within reach of pretty much anyone’s budget.

         

Turning a blank front firing gun into live  (barrel swamping & adjustments) 

If you are gonna use regular ammo then you have to replace the barrel. It's due to the pressure---------------------

----------------------------------------------------------A conversion involves cutting off the barrel and welding a real

9mm barrel in its place.-------------------------u just take the barrel off and change the materiel and make a new barrel and it works prefect-

1/ put a rifled barrel. Done

2/ replace the two metallic flanges and the trunnion by a more tough part (4140 ), exactly as is found on Glock, etc, where the plastic body is only a means to reunify the barrel, the bolt and the triggering system (and the magazine).

3 / if one does not want to work out a complete bolt, a minimum action would be to mill the central raised party, and replace it by a steel part, secured to the existing part by 2 big rolled pins or stub rods

If you wish to make your own drills for drilling out barrels for relining they may be made of a short section, \l/2" to 2" long, of high-speed steel by turning a pilot upon the front end to fit the old bore in the barrel and turning down a short section of the rear end to a smaller size so that an oil tube may be brazed onto it. The body usually has three straight grooves milled lengthwise of it with a fluting cutter.

Converting blank-firing firearms

Converting a blank-firing firearm es-

sentially involves removing the barri-

ers to normal firearm functionality

put in place by manufacturers. While

almost any blank-firing firearm is po-

tentially convertible, certain models

have features that make them more

attractive as potential ‘converts’. While

there are plainly considerations such

as availability and cost, three design

features appear particularly influential

in determining how readily a blank-

firing firearm can be converted

(Ferguson and Williams, 2014, p. 6).

The first consideration is the direc-

tion in which the blank-firing firearm

expels the gas pressure created from

a fired cartridge. Front-venting blank-

firing firearms lend themselves more

readily to conversion. Whereas top-

and side-venting blank-firing firearms

require changes to the barrel to direct

the projectile’s (bullet’s) energy for-

ward and permit its exit, front-venting

barrels automatically direct the pres-

sure to the end of the barrel, just as

with a real firearm.

Second, the ammunition that the

blank-firing firearm can chamber is an

important factor. Many blank-firing

pistols have shorter chambers, as

blank cartridges are shorter than car-

tridges fitted with a projectile.

Bulleted cartridges are not perfect fits

in blank-firing firearms, but can often

be manipulated to work (see Box 1).

Finally, blank-firing firearms con-

structed with harder metals (such as

zinc alloy, steel, or gunmetal), espe-

cially at key pressure-bearing points,

are sought because they improve safety

and performance (Hales, 2006, p. 39).
