Craftable gun conversation kits

Could we have craftable gun conversion kits for the ones that exist?

You would need something a new barrel for the weapon, or in the case of making one larger, a way to re-bore it.

This could make a use for the coreless drill. (I’ve yet to see any use for this)

Add in a gunsmith kit, the ammo/shells of the needed type. Since it’s a kit, probably a soldering iron, screw driver, drill.

The hard part would be requirements.

Personally, I’d say you need a high skill in the gun type of ammo being used. Fabrication/Mechanics would make it

Or just pick one, and make it fairly high. I don’t see how this would be any more overpowered than people making serums, CBM’s.

It just allows people to use ammo they have if by making a kit to change their weapon. I’m out of 7.62, and don’t feel like reloading, but have 1500 5.56 NATO?

Nope, barrel reboring is definitely over the line. A cordless drill isn’t up to that kind of job.

What if it were only smoothbore conversions? At the distances we tend to fight in Cata a smoothbore conversion to 9mm would be very reasonable even after taking an accuracy hit. Also, there are a few people who have rifled their own barrels. Maybe Fab 7 or 8 level work but I think it’s doable with pipe, wire, welder, wood, fine wood cutting and something to use as a cutter bit.

We have the equipment to make diamond weapons, why not CNC machines or futuristic 3D printers? 3D printed guns are already semi-viable in 2015.
