Very finicky about ammo does not work consistently with even the ammo recommended by Advantage Arms.

This is the second advantage arms .22lr kit that I have bought and this one is just as good as the first. Very high quality, very well built and it turns my 10mm monster into a cute little trainer. I use high quality CCI 32g stingers and NEVER have a misfire or a jam. Winchester 36g(?)hollow point golden bullets are very reliable, but will jam once every 200 rounds or so. I have not had a 40g round of any brand jam yet. Perfect for getting used to quick repairs, training, triger pull, etc.

The Advantage Arms 22LR conversion kit for the Glock 30 is beautiful and flawless. It fits the Glock 30 perfectly and shoots accurately. I am well pleased with this purchase.

I purchased this a little over a year ago, and finally received it. Probably my most favorite purchase I ever made in my 10+ years of collecting. A helluva lot cheaper then 10mm rounds ]if you can even find 10mm ammo anymore[!

It took roughly 8 months to get this in, but I am VERY happy with this product. Advantage Arms takes forever, according to one of the CSR''s, but overall it was worth the wait.

Took my Advantage Arms kit to the local indoor range for the first time on my Glock 30. You can only use the ammo the range sells ]they charge $23 for a box of .45 ACP[and all they had was Blazer .22 ammo. I''ve heard the AA kit was a bit finicky on ammo type, but the conversion kit burned through 100 rounds flawlessly. I''m no pistolero but the kit shot tight groups when I took the time to hold it steady. Can''t complain about the accuracy at all. The one thing I noticed afterwards was that the barrel was HEAVILY leaded. Came right out with a dose of Hoppes No. 9 and a good brushing. I blame the leading on the Blazer ammo. I think next time I''ll smuggle in some CCI Minimag ammo, buy the required cheap stuff and drop it in the trash can. Although the local range carried Glocks, they had never seen the Advantage Arms conversion kit! Go figure. The range is also ]apparently[ unventilated and has no air-conditioning, which is a bit tough here in Florida. Looks like an opportunity to open a better indoor range!

I''ve put 200 rds thru mine so far in my Glock 30 frame. 100 rds of Blazer first ]that''s what the range carried[. Shot fine, no hiccups. Bad case of lead afterwards. Came right out with Hoppes #9 and a brush, but no more of that brand. Fired 100 rds of CCI MiniMags at another range. Other than one hung casing ]probably my fault[ the kit worked fine. Accuracy is better than I am. A few TINY slivers of lead afterwards. Nothing in comparision to the Blazer ammo. Hope to try Rem. Golden bullets next ]if I can find any[ to compare with the MiniMags. Same as shooting the Glock? No. The AA kit is much lighter. But if you want to use it to get the feel for the Glock frame minus the recoil and expense of .45 auto shells, it''s a good option.

Installation is a breeze. I put 200rds through it first time out. It is very accurate up to 15yds for me. So I shoot 200rds 22LR for the price of 50 45ACP. Only one minor functional deficiency in that I must hold down the magazine release when inserting the magazine (it ejects fine). It took 8 1/2 weeks to receive but I know that is just a function of the demand these days. Well worth the wait.

I''''ve only had this for a few weeks now, but it works superbly. Fit an finish is excellent. I switched my order to the model 30sf from the model 22 when I was told there were 89 people ahead of me for the model 22 conversion. I had already been waiting for almost 1 year. So I asked about the back log on the 30sf. I was told they just filled the last order for the 30sf and that there was no one in line for that model. I switched my year long order on the 22 to the 30sf and I received mine in about one month. You might check on other models an see whats available. Had I stuck with waiting on the model 22 kit, I might have had to leave the order to my grandkids in hope that some day they might get one... [

wow!!! what a great piece of equipment, it worked perfictly.I took it to the range and shot 200 rounds with only 1 round strike fail (cci mini mag factory 2nds) what a easy break in(unlike my ar15 kits) . made in America and it shows. The slide stays back giving you the only convertion kit (adavantage arms kits) that allows you to practice "exatly" as you will with your .45 same everything holster,mag pouches and accuracy (8" plate 93yds tink-tink-tink). IF YOU DON''T HAVE YOUR KIT YET YOUR SPENDING WAY TOO MUCH MONEY "bring it on NWO"

Excellent product--once you figure out which kind of ammo it likes. However, it is very finicky about different kinds of ammo. I used the Remington bullets suggest by Advantage Arms in their paperwork that ships with the gun and was still having a couple of jams per mag. Other kinds were even worse. HOWEVER, I then tried some 40gr Winchester Wildcats and it works perfectly. Remarkably accurate with those bullets, too. I would recommend that anyone buying this unit start with Winchester Wildcats before trying other kinds of ammo.

Great conversion kit! Would buy again and if you want to save a lot of money shooting your Glock this is the way to go! Have shot 100''s of round threw this item without any problems! I use the Remington Golden 525 round packs from Gander Mountain! They seem to be very fresh, that''s the problem some have is that some of the older lot numbers had a problem but the new production will work fine in anything. anyway buy one you will not be sorry unless nothing seems to satisfy you then you will find something wrong anyway!

I like shooting 22 lr for cost and practice. Fit was good and functons great with proper ammo. After I read some of the other comments on the length of time the people had to wait for their kits, I was a bit concerned. I got mine in a timely matter because I ordered during the Christmas holidays, I expected a longer wait. After processing it took a week to get it. I would order produsts form them again in the future. Thanks

Installed on my G29 with no problems. Fired the first round and cycled the slide. Then repeated for 49 more rounds! No ftf, fte. This top end even feeds and fires cb longs and super colibris, of course they are too weak to cycle the slide. Just awesome!

Customer service was fantastic, calling to clarify an issue with my online order and then very promptly shipping! I love the conversion unit also. It ran flawlessly for the 100 rounds of rem Golden bullet bulk ammo I have put through it so far. It also fed and fired Super colibris well, although of course they were not strong enough to cycle the action. Great way to practice much more cheaply than 10mm ammo and JUST PLAIN FUN!
