mini uzi .45 conversion

[asintaderoche]

i don't want to buy a new gun, so i'm planning a caliber conversion. from 9 to .45 in a mini configuration. any help.

Be prepared for a lot of machine work.....then it may not be very satisfactory.  The Factory never made this gun in anything except 9 mm.  There is no known parts available in .45 acp.  Barrel climb would almost be totally unmanageable with a full auto......  Why?

asintaderoche, I assume you're looking for a drop in conversion and not really wanting to build from scratch. But if you did want to build one, you should start by reading:
