And is AA's conversion better than Marvels?

Depends on what you mean when you say "Marvels". There is Marvels, and then there is Bob Marvel Customs. Bob started the Marvel company, and then sold it I believe, and started a new company, which is the latter. From what I understand, and I may be wrong, Bob actually takes the AA kits and tweaks them a little bit to sell as the Bob Marvel Custom kits. What he tweaks is unknown to me, but I would assume he makes the AA kits better. The reviews are always good for anything "Marvel" or "Bob Marvel". The thing that dissuaded me from going the Marvel route was the price (some kits over $600), and the lack of the slide lock on empty feature. I should say though, that I think some kits now have the slide lock feature, but it is not the standard in their lineup, and absent in the more accurate kit (Unit 1). They say a Marvel Unit 1 kit (the target kit) is a bullseye beast, though.
