Reviews & Ratings for Advantage Arms Glock Gen 5 .22 Long Rifle Conversion Kit w/10-Round Magazine — 8 reviews — Page 1

First the big question, do you want this instead of a stand alone 22 pistol? The short answer is no, you're goning to want a complete pistol. The advantage arms conversion kit with 2 mags is about 300, for 100 more you can get a decent Berreta, Ruger or Taurus 22 pistol.
But the advantage arms 22 conversion gives you something you will not get with a stand alone pistol: your own glock lower and trigger. The trigger control/ grip experience will be identical to your actual glock 19. This gives you valuable training experience you won't get with a 22 target pistol. Example: my Berreta 92/ 22 is definitely a better pistol than a converted glock, but the trigger pull is very short and feels nothing like my actual defensive sidearms. Meanwhile the advantage arms conversion is in every way identical to my actual glock except has no recoil since it's a 22.
The good: one of the best training tools you can get for your glock 19. You can double the number of shots you make at the range for not much more money. I'm paying 5 to 6 times more for 9mm than I am for 22 and that's getting worse not better. I routinely see 500 round boxes of 22 for about 8 cents a round and 9mm is actually starting to go back up with a "street price" of about 50 cents a round.
The bad: won't shoot cheap 22, especially during the 1st couple hundred round break in period. The worst Walmart ammo I can find will work ok in my stand alone 22, but won't cycle in the advantage arms. The company recommends high vel...

Fun to shoot,easy to set up.requires a little break in, but runs smoothly after. Groups look good, great for practice without the expense of full caliber pistol cartridges. On a negative note, wish they offered a few choices on magazines. I needed to order separately, Glock 17 magazines, even though I got the G19 conversion. I am using the conversion kit on a G45. Any 15rnd magazine for these will extend past the grip, if that's an issue, you will have to order the 10 round magazine for the pistol you have.

Great deal for the price! Saves money shooting when 9mm is hard to find and you don't want to run through a bunch on a range day. Would definitely recommend. Quick and easy to use. Have had some cycling issues, but overall a great product.

Great product from optics planet. I didn't Expect A soft case to come with it. Great job optics!!!! The product looks like a sold unit can't wait to get out and shoot it. Everything I have purchased from optics planet has been very good experience with great products.

Advantage will swap out the g19 mag for the 19x or g45 so the g19 kit will work for you. With 9mm being so expensive, this is a GREAT option!!! I have run many rounds through mine and been impressed! You will not be disappointed. Likely these will be sold out soon!

I ordered this kit last month and received it quicker than i expected. It has functioned great with the ammo the company recommends. This kit is very accurate and well worth the money. The kit has adjustable sights and it can be a little tricky putting back together if you dont read the instructions(which are easy to understand)

This is a good addition to your Glock to improve accuracy. It helps to improve aiming & trigger pull. The downside is that it does not represent the true weight of the weapon in its true 9mm state. The 22 mag is exceptionally light as is the barrel and its mechanism. The lack of weight takes some getting used to. Overall, a good investment in these days of high ammunition prices and lack of availability.
