    Do I need any additional equipment for a Advantage Arms 22 conversion that has a threaded barrel? Will be using a Sparrow on it.

    I know most 9mm and 45 ACP need the piston adapter, but is this true for the 22LR pistol?

    Sparrow works great on rifles with standard velocity and sub sonic (970fps and 950fps).

    Q
    Does it have a fixed barrel?

    It looks like a simple blowback system due to the 22.


    Q
    It looks like a lot of people are shooting these suppressed with dedicated .22 cans so you should be good to go. Seems like there were issues with the adapters and things when there weren't threaded barrels.

    Q
    Did the conversion kit come with its own slide and spring?

    I have the TacSol version for G19 frames and it works fine without the need for a piston. Mine will not cycle CCI 710 FPS Quiets and I haven't tried it with the 970 FPS Suppressors yet, but standard velocity is no problem.

    I bought the original AA Kit with a standard barrel. I got the threaded barrel from AA recently. All equipment is Advantage Arms.

    You should do fine with just a straight suppressor.
