Ugh, don't remind me.
Special Interest Arms used to make these well as 45ACP conversions using 1911 magazines. Many years ago they'd sell it as either a kit that would require some fitting/machining or the full service if you provided a host rifle. When they were making these I hoarded up those single stack mags while trying to get a good Enfield for them to convert for me. Eventually I managed to get two partial Enfields that I was going to send them to see if they could make me one functional rifle, but by the time I was ready to move on it, they'd discontinued their 7.62x39 conversions and were only focusing on the 45ACP work. Now I'm stuck with two partial Enfields and a whole lot of single stack AK mags that I have no use for. I may try to try to put together one working Enfield someday but I've been reticent to add another new caliber just now.
BTW, As of right now it's up to $900. :banghead:

Yeah, I just got home and saw that. And now with only 2 hours left. Wondering if it might bump up another $100 before it's done. I was out at $450, LOL.

Well, it went for $900 so about twice as much as you'd been willing to pay.
I really wish I'd moved quicker on this back when they were making them.
