| Has anyone had any luck with theirs? I heard that the early 15 round mags had issues and the break in period sucks, but after that do they work well? |

I've got one and at first it wouldn't cycle at all for any ammo no matter what. I found a video on youtube that fixed everything.
After I done the mods from youtube (took about 15 minutes) it runs like a top with no break in and cycles everything I've tried even subsonics that wouldn't run in other conversions. I've had the Advantage arms kit before this one and used it on the same 17 frame and it it was picky about the ammo it liked but ran well with mini mags. Also a threaded barrel for the AA kit had to be bought seperately. It was a good kit and accurate but I like the Tactical Solutions better. I've read alot of good and bad but after the mods it's become my favorite 22. I've had no problems with mags except I can't load them fast enough. My conversion suppressed

Thanks for fixing the link. Yes any glock sight will fit, I lost my front sight (my fault) and replaced it with factory glock.
In the picture the bottom of the mag sticks out some, probably about as much as a +2 extension. There are very few moving parts in the slide and has been easy to clean. |
| Thanks for the info guys. So have you used the 15 round mags and do they work well now? I want to sell my Ruger 22/25 and get this conversion. Pretty lame that the company doesn't see that current owners need to make mods for it to function reliably. I would think the company would know and make the appropriate changes. |

I've used the 15 round mags and they run good.
If I already owned the 22/45 it would be a tough call on selling it for any conversion. I think the 22/45 is probably going to be more accurate. This conversion is very acuurate though and I enjoy shooting it more than my Rugers. I agree the extractor mod should be something addressed by Tactical Solutions and they may have something in the works for a fix. Tactical solutions puts out alot of quiality products and they seem to take customer input very well. For now though, for such an easy thing to fix It's a great conversion that should be given a chance. All conversions for rimfire that I have tried always have had some issue, some more than others. |
