Just got my CZ Kadet conversion kit. What a beautiful piece of hardware. A .22 pistol that feels just like your 9mm CZ pistol because it is your 9mm pistol. Same trigger and grip because it uses the 9mm frame. Same manual of arms, fits the same holsters, and it's all steel, so it weighs the same. And even though it works on a different principle (blowback rather than Browning short recoil) the disassembly procedure is the same.

I don't have a suppressor for it yet—need to take a day to get the paperwork together and go see the sheriff—so for now I've just put a Levang linear compensator. Looks like a stubby can, and weighs as much as a Gemtech Outback, so I can get used to the balance with something hanging out on the end of the barrel. And there are plenty of competition .22s with compensators on 'em, so it's not as poseurish as a fake suppressor.

Almost forgot to mention another great feature of the CZ Kadet: they moved the bore axis down. The barrel sits lower in the .22 upper than it does in the 9mm slide, a little over 1/2" below the top of the upper. You know why that's so great? Because you can put a 1" diameter suppressor on it, and the top of the can will be even with the top of the "slide". Not protruding above it to obscure your sights.

It's the little details.
