After following your thread I wasn't sure at first if it was you or not. If I ever run into one cheap at a gun show...........well a guy has to dream anyway.
Barrel, bolt needs swapped or machined to a larger face and ejection port needs enlarged.
Armalight also used a longer gas tube with the gas port 2 inches closer to the muzzle than standard rifle length to get optimal dwell time and pressure for the higher pressure, larger volume round. On a ground up build you could just go with a slightly smaller gas port and standard length gas system.
If you want one your best option is to watch gunbroker or similar and wait for one to come up for sale.
They are often cheaper than original MSRP, shot little and well cared for even used.
