So I bought an Ishapore.... Sorta

What I bought was a Barreled receiver for a Ishapore, waiting for it to ship.

But in the meantime After having done a lot of research I've sourced most if not all the parts I need to build one.

One question I have is on the Bolt. Can I buy a complete .303 bolt and change just the extractor to 7.62, or would it be better to buy a stripped Bolt from an Ishapore and piece it together also.

Also any advice on things to take into consideration for my build.
