If you want more trigger time with your favorite centerfire semi auto pistol then a 22 conversion unit is the way to go. However if you desire a reliable 22 pistol then purchase a 22 caliber pistol.

And your reason for that statement is what, exactly? Are you claiming (based on something other than conjecture) that conversion kits are less reliable than dedicated .22s?

The CZ Kadet is a 9mm frame with a .22 top unit. The Kadet Kit added to a 9mm or .40 CZ is exactly the same gun.

The Marvel .22 conversion kit for 1911s is renowned for both quality, reliability, and accuracy.

The main reason for NOT getting a conversion kit is that some of them aren't as accurate as a dedicated .22. Some -- but, not all.

If you get one that is accurate, you've arguably got the best of both worlds. And at least two (cited above) are as accurate as dedicated .22s.
