Title: Drop-in Barrel in a Glock
Post by: Greybeard on August 26, 2014, 02:01:50 PM: I'm thinking about getting a 9mm conversion barrel for my Glock 22. I see that Lone Wolf, Stormlake and Bar-Sto make them, with the prices going up in the order that they are listed. Any recommendations from members? Secondly, will I need to buy 9mm magazines, or will my .40 mags accomodate the 9mm rounds?

Thanks in advance for your input.

Post by: Greybeard on September 02, 2014, 09:08:34 PM: I ordered the Lone Wolf conversion barrel and 3 Glock 17 magazines from Midway last week, they arrived today. I took some 9mm ammo off of RobertH's hands on last Friday. Anyone see a connection here? Linda and I will be on a range Thursday afternoon putting all that together making noise, smoke and holes in paper. After she tries out the 9mm in a full sized glock 22, I will put my .40 cal barrel and mag back in and see how well she handles that.
