Looks like a lotta fun!

Lil pricey for the semi-auto upper I think though.

yeah it's pricey, but what the hell. If I had the money just laying around, I'd get one.

Definitely!

I have a 1911 .22 conversion that is just a blast.

Nope, it's just one of the drop in kits from Kimber. Nice and easy to switch back and forth.

If you have a 1911, I can't recommend getting one enough.

I also think there are companies that make them for Glocks and other pistols as well.

Two companies make these for Glocks:

Cienar: http://22lrconversions.com/

Advantage Arms: http://www.advantagearms.com/ (also for 1911)

I have not had the pleasure of trying a Cienar system, but did get to blast away with the Advantage Arms unit. It slid on top of my Glock 17 easily, and I had it "installed" in a matter of seconds.

The unit that I had made the Glock look different from the original factory pistol, and was listed as the "target model."

They do sell a "law enforcement model" that makes the gun resemble the original factory pistol.

All in all? A fun plinker. It's great for trigger control practice, and plenty accurate. However, I simply ended up selling mine, since I figured that the $$$ spent was better put towards getting an entirely new .22 LR pistol.

I wound up buying a Ruger 22/45. That's a story for later...

Marvel makes some of THE best 22 conversion kits for the 1911.

Back to the original topic of automatic weapons...

Y'all do know, that you're perfectly allowed to own a hand cranked gatling gun, no Class III permit required? In fact, anyone who can own a firearm, can own one.

A buddy of mine rigged up a dual mount Ruger 10/22 with a hand crank. Silly, but a really fun way to waste a lot of cheap ammo.
