Interesting read on the parallel thread.
I got a Marvel conversion when I was on a .22 binge following open heart surgery. I tried it on the 3 .45 frames I have and it really only worked on one, an old Colt Series 70. Not a problem. Now when I play with .22s, I have the choice of the Marvel, a .22 Kadet conversion on a CZ-75, a S&W Model 41, a Ruger Single Six, a S&W 617, and a couple of Ruger Bearcats.

I bought Unit 2  :(

It didn`t function 100% - and the accurazy was very bad  :(

The unit 2 is, I believe, made for high speed stuff. The aluminum slide is too massive for standard speed stuff. It also isn't a target gun like the unit 1. Accuracy may not be nearly as good. You also have to try different ammo. 22s can be picky.

Did you get two test targets with the unit or just one?

The Marvel website said something about a 100 round 50 yard target, but it sounded a little confusing. 

Looks like a nice rig.
