I passed up on a .22 conversion kit many years ago for $200, back inthe days when 9mm was cheap and plentiful. I'm kicking myself in the ass now for not getting it. Now they're impossible to find or very expensive

Yeah, I just paid $565.00 for a kit and $165.00 for 5 BDM magazines for it... BDM is going to be making a .22 kit soon, I was just too worried about the current political situation (IE:the lefties have control) to wait.

I think as far as 22 kits go we'll be ok. Most conversion kits use surplus mags anyway so you can just put the 22 mag inserts in your 9mm ones

JD,
You must be the one who won the bid on Gunbroker. Was the kit sent from South Carolina?
Those guys moved their store about 4 months ago and found 2 conversion kits stashed in the back. They auctioned one, I bought the other.
I wonder how long they had them and how much they had in them?
Geeeez,,if a guy only knew back 10 years ago!

Yeah, that was me. There was another new conversion up for auction that ended 2 days after mine, so I jumped on it while everyone was thinking they had a second chance on the other one. Then the next one went for $750.00. How is your kit? I was talking to the guy there and it sounded like the better late model version from Vector. I haven't got mine yet, I'm waiting for them to send it.

Has BDM released their Uzi .22 mags yet? And I really hope they run better than my 28 rd. Vector mags.

Heck, I don't even have my UZI yet. Plus, I am out of town working and I haven't seen it. The wife opend it up for me and everything seemed to be there and was new.
I probably won't know until June or so how it works because I don't expect my paperwork to be approved by then.
