First off, it is good to be back to THR even if only on a limited basis for now (damned hurricanes...).
To the point: I need advice and suggestions on .22 LR conversions for a 1911, specifically a mid-90's production Springfield Armory 1911-A1.
What i'm looking for is a complete upper assy. to drop on with no fitting.
Are there any units that are known to have fitting problems with SAs?
Which is the most reliable?
Ciener seems to be the most userfriendly if it fits your frame, is that true? Will it fit a SA frame?
Basically what i'm looking to do is have fun while cheaply practicing trigger control and sight alignment. How much work would it be to get Noval LoMounts on a Ciener
I think kimber also has a .22 conversion but i haven't found much to read about it.
The Marvel conversion looks nice also. Ciener or Marvel or Kimber right? Did I miss something? I'd like to hear some of your experiences with either.
