Will a Kadet kit work on my Compact?

Theoretically, the upper frame parts are the same..so It would work, just the mag would stick out of the grip housing?
            Let me know any success you have had with this situation...
            Shoot well

I would think if the upper works then a call to CZ for the shorter plastic grip extension of the compact mag would complete the conversion.  The mags are basically the 10 rounders with full size plastic bottoms.  I've seen compact mags that are the same with shorter bottoms. mapdude

I just bought a Kadet kit, received it on Wednesday. Yes it fits and looks beutiful on my hard chromed compact frame. The parts on the compact and fullsize frames that the kit interacts with are the same, just that the grip is shorter so my mags hang out the bottam about .75" or so.
