I spent an hour today messing around with my 1377 and 2240 doing a barel swap; with the 22 barel in hand I realized I could convert one of my two vigilantes to a 22.
I pulled the original barel out, and used a cordless drill to expand the plastic muzzle and breach shrowd openings. The top rail clips were removed and I sanded a concave groove so the larger diameter barel would not push the rail up.
I drilled out a BB Magazine to accept 22 pellets and fiddled with the barrel, inserted the muzzle as the breach since there is an air port that I didn't want to mess with.
I can't say this was successful. One in three pellets made it out the barel.
I then removed the magazine and pushed the barel back, it's not a revolver now but it is a reliable single shot pistol.
Is anyone else messing around with these?

I've been working on converting a vigilante into a carbine. The conversion to .22 is in the works (slowly) and I was wondering if you've have any new results on your mod.
