Caspian_45 Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 I bought a AA L.E. 17/22 Glock 22 lr conversion upper to play with. Does anyone know if other 22 conversion mags will work with this unit? The kit came with one mag. I am looking to get a few more. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the Ceiner mags but the AA mags are dirt cheap. I think they're only $25.00 retail and cheaper if you know someone with an FFL that can order for you. I think when I talked to the guy they are proprietary. I was trying to talk him into making a high cap. But he lives in CA so that's not going to happen.

Shawn Knight Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 I have the AA 22 kit. and I have been wanting some new mags that have a little more capacity as well. As far as I can tel the other mags should work, but there is only one way to find out. Hmmmmm............. Now if I only knew someone brave enough to try it..........

Caspian_45 Posted December 28, 2006 Author Share Posted December 28, 2006 Thanks for the replies. Yes I want a higher cap mag. But the 10 rd AA mags will work ok if thats all I can get. The Ciener mags hold 15. I'm just curious if other 22 conversion mags will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sslav Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Is it a useful training tool? What can you work on using one of these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Knight Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 They lock the slide back and they are just like reloading regular Glocks so I would think everything you can with a centerfire pistol just without the cost! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to get the same recoil as even a minor load? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you going to get the same recoil as even a minor load? Some fundamentals, like reloads, trigger control, even sight acquisition can be practiced quite well with a .22lr. I've picked up conversions for my 1911 and my daughters CZ to go along with the Ruger .22s that we all have. So long as you do get plenty of range time in with your center fire rounds as well there is a lot to be gained from sending .22s down range. -ld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 300 rounds of practice with the .45 I put on the .22 conversion. It is amazing how well it picks up me mashing and not squeezing the trigger. I love it as a training aid. I too wish that they made hi caps for them, if I only wanted to shoot 10 rounds, I would have stayed in limited 10! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhgtyre Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 My Ceiner 1911 conversion has 15 round mags. I think their Glock conversion also runs 15 rounders. The CZ conversion only has 10 rounders but there are instructions online for building your own 20 rounder. -ld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caspian_45 Posted December 29, 2006 Author Share Posted December 29, 2006 sslav. Yes I will be using this as a training tool. I will be using it to help with trigger control and sight alignment. The L.E. slide is fitted with factory Glock sights. So if you want to install your favorite after market sights, just swap sights. As for the recoil......... there ain't none. I may just have to buy a Ceiner mag and try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank Leader Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 The AA mags are like less than $20.00 $25.00 from maker. For me they in my local guns and ammo store. I picked up 4 more just to shoot steels. On my G34 runs like it was made to. Billy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
