Try this. Not sure if he is still in business. I poached this from another forum dated August 2018.

Let us know how you make out, Nat! I used one years ago in a Garand, bought from that vendor that advertiser in Shotgun News. Never ejected - used Loc-Tite to make sure it stayed put. What rifle are you thinking about adapting?

Don't waste your time and money. Just shoot 30.06 blanks.

Re: 308 chamber adapter
The M1 Garand needed chamber reaming for the insert/filler as the 7.62x51 NATO (.308 Win) has the same head diameter , but less body taper. Bet ya 10:1 that a 7.62 blank won't allow the bolt to close in your unmodified chamber.
However , running standard USGI 7.62 blanks thru a FL sizing die with the decapping stem removed will work just fine in an M1. I've done it.Last edited by abner13; July 27th, 2019 at 04:26 PM.

Re: 308 chamber adapter
Abner...can you elaborate ? Im sure you meant "without " de capping pin? and are you using a 308 or 30-06 die ? i have a bunch of 762x51 blanks Id like to have some fun with , just for shits and giggles. Not sure if Id run them through my spanking new Criterion barrel though, good to know the process just in case
