Hi folks,
Considering the cost of .45acp (roughly $0.50 / round here at the moment) I'm thinking of picking up a conversion kit for my 1911 to give me the option of shooting .22. Apart from saving a bunch of money, I reckon a .22 is a much better intro to the world of handguns than a .45 which, while very satisfying to shoot, can be a bit intimidating to new shooters.

And so I am thinking of picking up the conversion kit made by GSG. It replaces the slide, barrel, springs, and magazine, turning a .45 into a .22. Have any of you tried it or heard first-hand feedback? A dedicated .22 is out of the question budget-wise, so this looks like it might be a good solution.

Any thoughts much appreciated.
