I know, there was another thread, but has unfortunately been locked.

I was wondering what is the height of the conversion slide (sights excluded) and any height difference between the older and newer version?

I may be up for one, but if it doesn't clear my c-more even when removing the sights, I will have very little use for it (I am running a 90degree mounted c-more).

We don't mind multiple threads on products in our forum. I lock out threads after they've been asked and answered.

I'll get back to you later today with the measurements. Just have to get into the shop and grab the caliper.
 
No, Sorry - STI's conversion is 5" only...but it will work on a Ranger II.

Chemo, sorry, I didn't get to the measurements this afternoon.
I'll get it done in the AM.
 
The older model 22 conversion (made by Bob Marvel for STI) is 1.740" high with the sights removed.

The Newer model 22 conversion (made by Tactical Solutions for STI) is .840" High with the sight rail removed.

:cheers:
 
Is this a typo or is the marvel version really is an inch taller than the new version?

EDIT: oh Now I see how the TacSol version can be 0,9 inch lower, the sight rail is pretty beefy

Bingo and you're very welcome!
 
so when will the 2011 version become available?
I've been checking the website and ordered couple of times, but only saw the 1911 version

thanks

Like heavenIsAlie posted, it's the same kit - only with double stack mags. We have them now. Same price as the 1911 kit - I'll update the website to show 2011 too. In the meantime, just note that you want 2011 mags in the comment field and we'll make sure you get a 2011.
 
Sean,

A follow up question on the heights - which kit with iron sights on is closest to the STI slide and rear sight?

I measure the top of my rear sight blade (40 cal Edge) as 1.3125 inches from the bottom of the slide.

As I read this thread this implies the Marvell version is quite a bit taller but what about the TacSol with iron sights on?

Thanks!!
 
Sorry for the delayed response - still reeling from the nationals.

The newer TS version sits a hair lower than the STI pistol upper, while the older version kit sits higher than the STI pistol upper.

When comparing the height difference between the STI pistol upper and the two kits, the older conversion kit is greater.
