Mr. X, that would be great project. Aftermarket as well as stock parts are available for most guns. You aren't really limited to bolt actions but semi-auto recievers can be hard to find. You might keep an eye on pages like Guns America and other classified ad types where you might find a "parts gun" for sale. When it comes to buying a reciever just go through your local smith or dealer. If it's going to be a one or two time thing you certainly won't save any money by getting an FFL. I wouldn't attempt it on any caliber with a rim diameter of less than .473 but the French MAS 49/56 would be a good action for something like a 22-250. The CZ 52 might be another semi-auto worth looking at as well. George
