7.65mm to 9mm conversion

Conversion requires replacement or boring out of the barrel and replacement of the recoil spring. The front sight also will need replacing, but this in many cases will come with a replacement barrel. If you bore out the barrel and keep the original front sight the pistol will shoot a little bit high.

If you are talking about a Mauser re-intro, the barrel shank differs from pre-war Parabellums and is not interchangable.

You could probably work a horse trade for what it would cost to convert.

I might be among those you could work a horse trade with as I am among those crazy people who like the 7.65 mm.
