As Walt said, the prices on new Kadet Kits are pretty outrageous. I paid $219 for mine in 2001 I believe, and I thought that was a lot of money then as my Ruger 22/45 (MK II era) was the same price new. They are now over $350, which is also the price for some of the new Rugers, so I guess that's inflation for you. While I do believe the Kadet Kits are worth it in the long run due to the satisfaction you get from shooting a full size service pistol in .22, (and less cost of ammo) I do think one has to think long and hard between the Kit and a dedicated .22 for the same money.
