    Hi Power .22 Conversion?

    Anyone here buy one one of these from The Dealer Warehouse?

    Do they work well?



    $199 seems like a good price. Only prob is I don't see any spare mags for sale...

            May I ask what kind of Hi Power you used the conversion kit on? I have a Argentine Hi Power and figured this Argentinian made conversion kit might be a better fit with that than a Belgian Hi Power due to variances in manufacturing.

              Interesting, I would love to find a reliable 22 lr conversion unit for one of my P35 pistols---the 22 unit in picture is I believe an Argentine item and the reports I have read in years past were not that great---regarding the Ceiner 22 unit the reports I am aware of have not been positive either. Too bad. the Hi Power could use a GOOD 22 conversion unit. I have a 22 lr unit that fits my SIG P210 and it and its magazines are VERY expensive but at least it works with some brands of high velocity ammo and shoots like a full-on target pistol. If you get one of these units, please report your results.

                The SIG P210 is the Rolls Royce of pistols, I wouldn't expect anything less from their .22 conversion unit.

                I've heard of some problems with SIGARMS .22 conversion units with their P22x series pistols, however.

                CZ's .22 Kadet conversion is supposed to be very good but requires some fitting and Kimber's .22 conversion is hit or miss depending on your frame.

                I'm about to give up on the P35/Hi Power conversion....Ceiner has such a bad reputation for service when something goes wrong, I'm not even going to try my luck with them.
