This sucks
« on: March 29, 2014, 04:07:16 PM »
Does CZ not make a 22. I have found the kadet, but it is a $400.00 conversion that I would have to buy a $600 pistol for. Seriously wth you would think they would make a 22 pistol in the $3-350 range and make a freakin fortune. Big fan, but it just seems like poor business to ignore a huge market especially with such a loyal fan base.

Ok rant over.  Sorry.

They did, but it obviously didn't sell well enough so it was discontinued.

The last one I saw on Gunbroker a couple months ago was listed at $1100. Which is a crazy asking price. I don't know what it went for.

Just saw one today. Think it was on the last page or so. Around 680 now? Don't remember.

Yep, they've sure gone up in value since they were discontinued. It was ever thus.

149.99 for the Witness 22 conversion at CHeaper than dirt. Yes CZ is really sticking it to us with the Kadet.

It is an amazing kit----wish I had the spare $$$ to get one,  but that IS a lot of $$$, = two more mags + extended FP + next mod to fall into place. :-\

I had the CZ 75 first so the Kadet kit made more sense to me than another dissimilar 22 pistol....

CZ made a dedicated .22 for some time, but it was only available in Europe AFIK. I don't think they produce any longer. Here's a pic of the CZ 122 Sport in Duotone.



I think its kina ugly, but it is what it was!

Looks like there's some Jericho 941 influence in the styling of that 122!
