AlamoShooter Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Its my opinion that the mags have more to do with it working all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzygä Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Tactical Solution, Marvel and STI they all should work. You just have to try which one work best for your gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Amish 1 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) Tactical Solution, Marvel and STI they all should work. You just have to try which one work best for your gun. Tzygae, I'm trying to decide which one to pick since I don't want to buy all three . Do you know if one of these three works reliably with Federal Bulk ammo? I know some conversion kits call for mini mags and such, I personally like to use Federal 36grain, in the red and black 550rd box. Any idea which kit likes which ammo? Thanks!

Larry White Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Tactial Soloutions by far. Best mags, steel slide. Mine has about 2500 rds on it now, not a bobble.-----------Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CocoBolo Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 My STI 2011 conversion would not run on a para cut frame. It will run on a Nowlin cut frame. 3 out of 5 mags run with Remington Crap ammo fine. The other two don't, but if I just continue to run them a while they will probably start working. That is what happened with the first mag. If you are planning on reloading only put 9 rounds in the mag or carry a 10# sledge to knock them in the gun. Also the Dawson ICE is too long for the mags. At load and make ready I lock the slide open to insert the mag then hit slide release. I only shoot it in steel matches. My daughters love that conversion, they can burn 1000 rounds on a plate rack in an hour, that C-more makes them great shots as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougCarden Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Tactical Solutions kits work, if tuned to the frame......The kit must be loose on the slide to frame fit to be reliable, and the ejector must be tuned to the ejector on the frame. The STI tactical solution mags work great. TacSol put a lot of time and money into them. I have 5 of them that work flawlessly with CCI minimags on two different frames. The Tacsol unit works with ammo that the Marvel pukes on, period. If I had to get my friends or kids a kit, it would be the Tactical solutions kit, period.

Team Amish 1 Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Anyone know if Federal bulk ammo works ok in them? The TacSol sounds promising.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzygä Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hi Team Amish 1, I have STI conversion kit because in Europe they don't sell Tactical Solutions conversion kit. My STI conversion kit works just great with all ammo that I have tried. My friend who live in U.S.A. and have Tactical Solutions conversion kit told me that it is the best what he have ever have. I have heard and read a lot of good from Tactical Solutions conversion kits so if I have ever change to buy one of those I will. Mags are usually the weak point with conversion kits. Tactical Solutions and STI conversion kit new mags should be good ones. When I and 3 of my friends had CZ conversion kits they all liked different ammo. So get the best conversion kit for you and find the best ammo for it (accurate and reliable). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

818-DVC Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 Does anyone have pics of the TS 2211 conversion on a long dust cover? I could only find this pic of someone shooting one but it gives you a pretty good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistral404 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I had a Marvel. Every time you take it off the frame you have to re-sight when you put it back on. The guide rod tightens the unit to the frame. No such problem with the TS. I use it on my wide body and single stack frames. The zero stays the same. The ejector needs to be tuned but that is quite easy to do. The mags are great. Spend the money on TS. Look in the Classifieds I think Don Bednorz had a certificate for sale. Also you can buy an additional rail so you can use optics or iron sights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
