Do you modify the bolt carrier and/or cocking support? Or buy a 51 carrier?
I've been sitting on a CETME kit and a 51 barrel but looking at the price added to buy a 51 carrier and the weird collapsing recoil assembly I think thats needed kinda kills the fun of a $99 CETME kit

I cut and reweld the Cetme bolt carrier down to work as a 51 carrier. I also cut the recoil assembly down so that it works with the new Stryker 51 bolt carrier. I then modify an HK 33 cocking support to fit and use an HK Parts 51 cocking tube. I do not use a collapsable recoil rod. I build mine similar to the way Vollmer built theirs.Do you modify the bolt carrier and/or cocking support? Or buy a 51 carrier?

Out of curiousity, how far off is the HK51 carrier from an HK33 carrier?
I see these at RTGParts...
Could one, in theory, cut the tube portion of the CETME carrier off and replace it with one of these? Might be easier?
I'm really torn on trying to do a 51 build like these, or just selling that 51 barrel and getting a regular barrel.
I actually think I have a HK33 support kicking around here somewhere too...

Shoot me a price on the 51 barrel if you decide to sell it.Out of curiousity, how far off is the HK51 carrier from an HK33 carrier?

Comparison of the Cetme Model C bolt carrier and recoil spring and the Stryker 51 bolt carrier and recoil spring. I don't think the 51/53 bolt carriers are interchangeable but since I've never tried, I'm not sure if they'll interchange...
