the person is in way of their head with kind of project, besides the gearbox and hopup, nothing from a kraken is salvageable save maybe the gearbox, hopup, rear sight block, outer barrel (which will need to be cut and new holes tapped for the front sight) and inner barrel (which will need to be cut and properly crowned)
the body, top cover, pistol grip, front sight post, muzzle brake, handguards, selector switch etc. will need to be replaced, so really it would make more sense to purchase the gun from the classifieds than to undertake something like this, especially if they need to ask.
Just because the response to his question is not positive, does not make it any less valid, good for him that he asked first so he can save himself the trouble of finding out the hard way.
If he wants a short gun, he can get AV'd and try to find a complete Beta Spetz front end in the Parts classifieds, I've gotten two from there before and they do popup from time to time, then it's a matter of changing the front end to suit your needs
