hawksnest Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 If you are thinking of buying one as a shooter you should Insist on running several mags and then examine the fired cases. Also examine the extractor. The one I sold was an unsafe P.O.S. ( I made a full disclosure of all the problems I experienced, including blown cases, blown extractors, failure to feed, failure to extract, etc. etc., and had the buyer sign a disclaimer before I sold it 2 years ago for $4,000.00. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimFromFL Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 For that price, I would rather have a Thompson that shot .45 ACP, but if its a .22 you want, buy an American 180 and save a few thousand $$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Mills Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 I agree with Jim regarding the American 180. It was designed from the git-go for .22lr, and they run smooth as silk. Good clean fun with cheap ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SecondAmend Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 (edited) If I recall correctly, many if not most of the .22 cal WH 28s were converted to .45 before they were sold. That should speak of the level of machine gun the .22 cal version is. EDIT: Not converted - see PK's post below. My mistake.

hawksnest Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 The West Hurley .22 F/A I once owned had an aluminum receiver. If you can acess the "old" board there are several discusions concerning the Full Auto WH .22s. JimFromFla and Ron Mills gave the best advice. If you want a full auto .22 buy an American 180. They are dependable and loads of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye_Joe Posted August 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 Ok..let me set this straight... I'm not in the market for one.. I was just posting this as a coversation spark.. As I said.. I knew of two others for sale for much less... And as for conversion.. can you convert a .22 WH to .45??.....did all of them have aluminum receivers?

PK. Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 They were aluminum and were not “convertedâ€; their serial numbers were moved to steel 45 receivers and the aluminum scrapped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
