    CZ Kadet2 conversion to 22 caliber

    I asked about this once before and cannot find any answers so forgive me if a dupe...I'm interested in a CZ Kadet 2 conversion kit to .22 caliber...I understand they may need a bit of custom filing or stoning for a proper fit...any comments? I'm not real skilled with custom fitting of hand tools and would hate to create problems..thanks

    It’s possible you may need to.

    You would have to file the Kadet on a couple points it contacts whatever CZ frame you plan to use it on.

    Mine required minor filing for my SP-01. It’s really not that invasive. Whatever you do don’t file the FRAME.

      Don't worry about the filing... it's easy and straightforward. If you don't have one, pick up a really small file (mini rasp, maybe?). I had the same hesitation, but it's pretty obvious where on the Kadet slide you need to file. The slide assembly will slide onto the frame easily, then hang up between the two little tabs on each side of the slide. File a bit, then try again, file some more, repeat until it fits.

      The Kadet on my 75B is one of the best .22s I have! Liked it so much that I picked up another 75 so I can leave the Kadet on my first.

        I've had 4 kits, and none of them ever needed filing.

          I had to file the two little nubs on the kit so that it would fit my SP01. Nothing to it. Just take your time. I recommend this needle nose file kit from Harbor freight. Cost you about 5 bucks and it will get the job done.

              I have never had to change a thing on mine, spring, slide, etc. It is the most reliable 22 I have including Buckmark.

                I bought mine used and installed it with no issues on the SP01. It did not come with the second slide release for the P01 so I contacted CZ and they are sending me one.

                It's expensive, and you can buy some 22's for less but you won't have the same fun factor. This kit makes for an accurate and reliable 22lr.

                  The best thing I ever did to my CZ75 in .40 was put a Kadet kit on it. No filing was necessary and fit right on the frame.

                    The kadet kit is highly recommended. Mine has been 100%reliable and accurate.

                      Kadet kit

                      I put about 200 rounds thru my kadet kit during my first time at the range with it, and had about 20 fail to ejects. The casing would always get stuck between the next chambered round and the frame. Will this issue resolve itself after a "break in" period or did I get a lemon?

                        What ammo brand are you using?

                              Just make sure that you file the kit and NOT the frame. If you screw up its a $400 mistake versus a $600 + Redros a new weapon.
