EAA Witness 22lr Conversion Kit REVIEW

forgive me for my brutishness but this is my opinion of the new conversion kit. i believe it is not designed well enough for retail sale. the slide if very smooth but i have a lot of issues as far as the action goes. the way that the barrel entrance is designed is just meant to jam. the mags are kinda cheap too. i use only highest quality ammo so this shouldn't even be an issue. does anyone else have these problems or is it just me?

hey what's with the one dislike ya fuckin dicks. at least i speak english and i'm coherent.

[silverworks22]

can the conversion kit .22lr be use on MAPP1 FS of tanfoglio assembled here in Philippines by Armscor?

[gtarbmx]

@silverworks22 that's a tough question, i don't think i'm qualified to answer this one. it's probably unlikely it will. the slides must be manufactured to very tight tolerances. also, i don't think it's worth it. it doesn't really work all that well. the firing pin on mine is shit, i have to hit each round twice to fire it.

[kevinb120]

@silverworks22

The Armscor tanfogs are made to small frame specs(referring to the width, not the compact grip of smaller models). EAA American versions are the large frame specs(even US 9mm models are large frame). They often call small frame conversion kits/mags the '9mm frame', the large frame are called the '45 caliber frame'. So you will need to buy the conversion kit for the SMALL frame, which is often referred to as the .22/9mm version(it says this on the .22 slide).

[gtarbmx]

@kevinb120 this doesn't hold true for the eea tangs tho. all large frames are same specs. from 9mm to 45acp. you might need a stronger hammer spring, i'm having trouble with getting more than two fires in a row. i believe it's due to a bad firing pin design.

[intercooler2]

I had good luck with mine. I just didn't care for last round slide not locking back. Okay for me but not my Fiance so we sold it.

[gtarbmx]

@intercooler2 sold the gun or the kit? cause the witness in a masterpiece nonetheless

[intercooler2]

The kit. She wasn't the best at counting the shots. I bought a S&W Limited Edition 22A and it is just amazing. Never a single issue and the 5.5" fluted Bull barrel is great.

I will never part with my Match 10mm. I tried to get info on making the Hunter top work but it won't. Out of the other 10's out there nothing compares in looks or features!

[gtarbmx]

@SpeedmanRC i get "fail to extract" nearly every 30 rds. "misfires" every 5. and once in a while an empty casing will get jammed in between the slide and the barrel. i used fiocchi and winchester ammo but i will try the CCI for sure.

[SpeedmanRC]

yeah, did not get the new wire with my kit. The only thing happening now, after about 250rds the first round will not always "strip" off. Before that I had random fail to feed, and some of the fail to fires I had I can just DA on them and was good. I was using mix of CCI mini mag and federal bulk. Was 100% on CCI mini mag.
