Nelson 1911 - 22 Conversion

[trackcage]

I think the fiber optic option is on their site. That's how I found mine. You need to do a bit of digging around their product lages, however.

I'd say that if it gets your blessing to shoot matches with it, that should about sum it up to anyone looking. Shows the enormous faith you have in the product and reliability

I finally ordered one, took about a month after ordering.
My Nelson should be here tomorrow. Green FO front sight.
Hopefully I can get to the range on Saturday.
Thanks trackage for your review and pictures.

I have a Nelson, but from when he was badging them with NightHawk.

It is an excellent part- Wish I had a dedicated 1911 frame for it [I'm in California, so that isn't going to happen].

I am a bit confused though, as I've NEVER heard of anyone reloading .22lr. I didn't even think it was possible.

Or, did you just mean that the cost of .45acp rounds wasn't the driving factor?


Enjoy it!

I'm sure the OP meant the ammo cost factor wasn't the driving force to buy the 22 conversion. We can reload 45 acp pretty cheap....not much more than quality 22lr.

Correct. Comparing the cost of .45 (reloaded by me) and stating that ammo cost was not the driving factor behind my initial purchase of this conversation kit. Plus it would like a whole lot of ammo savings to make up for the cost of the kit

If any of you are interested in a NIB Nelson .22 conversion for the 1911, I have one for sale for $400. You'll be saving around $50 and you can have it now, not wait 6 weeks.

Sorry to bump this old thread... I have decided to put up my conversion for sale due to the fact that I rarely use it. Any questions, feel free to check out my listing below or PM me.
