Which 22 conversion kit? Kadet or 1911?

[viking499]

If you had a CZ and a 1911 (full size) and wanted to pick up a 22 conversion kit to add to one, which one would you pick to add too?

The only requirements for the 22 kit would be adjustable sights and lock back on the last shot.

I had a Marvel Unit 2 for my 1911's. It was a nice, well made unit but I sold it after shooting a friends CZ75 9mm in both 9mm and with the Kadet conversion configuration. I liked both the CZ 9mm and the Kadet conversion. The Marvel did not lock back on the last shot, I believe the Kadet does. I found the Kadet magazines easier to load than the Marvel mags (dang hands don't work like they used to.) I also felt the Kadet was more accurate than the Unit 2. (From what I've read, the Marvel Unit 1 is supposed to be very accurate but costs more than I wanted to spend.)

The main reason I bought the CZ 75 Compact was for shooting steel plates and so my lead supply would last a lot longer than it would shooting 200 gr SWC in my 1911's. As I figured I'd shoot the CZ more, I thought the Kadet conversion would do me more good than the Marvel 1911 Unit 2.

You get a heck of a lot for your money with the CZ + conversion kit.
