I purchased one of the straight pull ones for shits n giggles a while back, shoots alright. However there is no way you will be converting it to semi, the gas block on it purely aesthetic and does not come apart like the semi-auto. There have been 2 semi-auto ones for sale on Trade Me over the last few weeks for around $3000-$3500, or a Chinese NDM86 for $3300, only a few hundred over the straight pull one.
