Description
This kit is great for the small frame Colt Pocket Model reproductions from Uberti, including the 1848 Baby Dragoon, 1849 Pocket Model, 1862 Pocket Navy, and the 1862 Pocket Police. You’ll need to open the recoil shield with a Dremel Tool (Instructions included) in order for the .22 rounds to slip in and out, but once done, you’ll have a very handy little .22 Pocket Model. You can easily switch back to a percussion Cap & Ball cylinder at any time. All .22 Conversion Kits fire standard .22LR ammo; including .22 Long and .22 Short.

I’ve bought several different Kirst conversion cylinders for different revolvers from both Pietta and Uberti and I’m happy with them. This is my first comment on any of them. I got a couple of these 22 converters and while they were a bit more finicky to get working than some of the others, in the end they worked out just fine. Accuracy at the range was acceptable for a gun with what is a 2 inch barrel. No problem ringing steel plates at 10 yards, or even longer distances. Ok, if you’re buying Kirst cylinders, you’re going to be a die-hard Cowboy Shooting enthusiast, because these things are not cheap. But now that I’ve had Kirst, I wouldn’t go back to the Taylor’s or Howell’s cylinders, even though they are less expensive. Kirst is just a better and easier to use product.
