Hi all,
I know this is a bit out of left field but does anyone in downunder have a couple of  .50 cal barrel supports, not QCB, and an old heavy barrel with a good chamber. They are needed for  blank fire conversion of my registered M2.
 
Regards
GTOZ2

You don't actually need a barrel support to convert the M2 to blank fire.
Just thread and plug the barrel muzzle with 9.1mm / 9.2mm restrictor vent.Drill 4 equispaced holes at the barrel support area. Turn down the barrel support bearing area of the barrel.Manufacture a loose sleeve which will slide into barrel support area and will be retained by hook lug arrangements.
