[QUOTE="Buzzdraw, post: 2909472, member: 385"] Years ago I had a Colt factory .22LR conversion with floating chamber. It worked fair on a .45 ACP frame. The differences between a .45 frame and a 9mm/38 Super frame include: ramp shape and ejector. Typically one needs a special 9mm/38 Super slide stop. Ejector needs to fit SOLID on the frame so not a good idea to do lots of swapping back and forth. Some .45's use the smaller .068" firing pin others use the standard .090" one. Just not a good idea IMO to do multi caliber swaps on the 1911 platform. [/QUOTE]
