Thor, I live down in sunny Las Cruces. Tell me, what might it run to have you saw the barrel off of my c96, thread the receiver, and replace it with a 16.25 inch 9mm parabellum barrel? I'm also considering otherwise modifying the gun as a carbine (id est stocks, magazine extension, et cetera). If I make the necessary modifications to the frame, can you make a nice forearm out of a relatively inexpensive but attractive piece of wood? I'd probably also need a matching shoulder stock. Or, if I decide that it is too much of a pain in the rear to "carbinize" the gun, what would it cost to just reline the existing barrel to 9mm para, modify the rear sight to 9mm specs, and refinish the ol' bugger. She's a might abused.
