Thank you one and all for your very informative responses.

Now, decisions, decisions...except, one: The "Ultimate Cliploader". I hope that whatever I decide on can utilize this extremely handy devise. I'm almost at a point where I might buy both a conversion kit AND a new .22 cal pistol.

Over time, given the cost of center fire cartridges, (and difficulty to obtain) the .22 cal kit and pistol will ultimately pay for themselves. Well, sorta...if you like to spend a lot of time at the range and use mucho ammo each time out that is...

Keith,

Thanks for insight on the conversion kit.

It's been suggested to me that Advantage Arms conversion kits are THE kits to buy for a Glock. I've heard this from more than one source, including one from a Glock rep. That said, they are cost over $300.00.

I will definitely look into the Ciener kits, but I'm still strongly interested in buying a stand alone pistol.

Years ago, I had a Hi-Standard Stainless .22LR - 9 shot revolver that I dearly wish I still had, oh well...

I've looked into buying a .22LR conversion kit for my Glock 19 and it appears the cost would equal (or come very close) to the cost of a new .22LR pistol. Since there's no economic benefit to buying a conversion kit vs. an outright purchase of a new pistol, I may as well buy a new pistol.

My problem: I haven't a clue as to what to buy. It seems everything I've considered has some dependability issues, i.e., the Sig Mosquito.

If you have experience with a dependable .22LR I'd appreciate your recommendations. (This'll be a range gun) I'd also like to add that simplicity in cleaning/maintenance is important. I'm not interested in something that breaks down into many moving parts as I have two left thumbs...

Thanks!
