My buddy recently gave me his beat to hell Beretta Jetfire chambered in .25ACP to fix. THe recoil spring is broken (looks like someone tried to pry it out with a pair of wire cutters) and everywhere I have been able to find parts has been sold out of the .25ACP recoil springs. He said he would be willing to drop the money on making it a .22, if possible. Since every website with parts seems to have .22 parts in abundance, I was curious if by changing the slide, barrel, and internals over to .22 parts, I would be able to convert it over?

Here is the website I have been looking on with the most parts: http://www.midwestgunworks.com/page/mgwi/ctgy/beretta-950-jetfire-pistol-parts

Most of the parts seem to be used in both calibers, but there are also quite a few that are specific to caliber, which I would need to change out with the current .25AP parts.
 
I know this is OT, but it made me remember to ask; someone made a small .22 magnum, about this size, and most were stainless, and had a good firing pin safety. Do any remember who made these, as for the life of me, I do not?
 
Cool thanks guys I appreciate it. I figured as much but had to make sure I didn't end up losing a finger test firing the thing after replacing the necessary parts to convert it to .22 short. Will also pick up a .25 recoil spring from that website just in case he ever wants to switch it back over - thanks Kgviens.
