Falcon knob lck.intrchgble core to retrofitted with medeco

Hi, does anyone has an idea of where can i find an available material to retrofit a Falcon knob interchangeable core lock, to a Medeco interchangeable core? I believe, its only a core adaptor and a driver that is needed. since the falcon knob im talking about is of interchangeable type too, secured by two retaining screws. thanks :?:
hi everyone, im glad to be a member of this very interesting community, our community of locksmiths. i hope i could help others, within my ability, and hope you can help me too, God bless us all fellow locksmiths.

I do not think Falcon locks will accept a Medeco Core, as long as you are referring to Medeco Original, Biaxial or M3. Falcon is a Small Format Interchangeable Core Lock (SFIC) and the above mentioned Medeco locks are only available in Large Format Interchangeable Core (LFIC).

Medeco does have an SFIC line called Keymark but it does not have the side-bar / rotating pins found in LFIC Medeco.

I checked both the Falcon Catalog and the Medeco Catalogs and they do not cross reference each other, though I may have missed something.
