Re: 22 conversion or...

This is what I found on the Advantage Arms site:
Q: Will your conversion kit fit my 1911?
A: Our 1911 conversion kit is made to fit any Full Size 1911-A1 frame, series 70 or 80, made to Military Specifications. If your gun is not made to military specifications then some fitting maybe required.
So again, I'm not sure if it'll fit a 1911 with an extended ejector.

Re: 22 conversion or...

I know the Chiappa has a last round slide lock; not only read it in reviews, but seen it in video. And I know that Tactical Solutions has a last round slide lock as well. The only thing preventing me from getting one is what I keep hearing about the the extended ejector getting in the way if the slide; which is why I sent them an email inquiring about it.

Re: 22 conversion or...

Does the Ciener kit have a last round slide lock? I know the Kimber doesn't. That feature is important to me as I would also like to practice reloading. And I sent an email to Tactical Solutions asking them about the ejector situation; so hopefully I hear something back from them in a decent amount of time. The Chiappa is looking like a more suitable option, but I really would like to use my carry pistol.

22 conversion or...

I currently carry a full size 1911. I'm thinking about getting a 22 conversion kit so that I can practice more without emptying my wallet. A friend turned me on to a kit from Tactical Solutions. The only problem I found with that is apparently you can't use it with an extended ejector; which I have. I have also looked at the Chiappa 1911-22. It seems like a good choice, but I would really like to practice with my pistol. The big thing that I want is the ability to have the slide stay open after I fire the last round. Any thoughts?
