Glock purchased a Glock handgun from a gun range that shot a couple Million rounds through it. Has all original parts except I think the barrel and recoil springs. I think the barrel was replaced once (while the second was still in good shape)... and the recoil springs were replaced several times. I don't recall exactly how many times, but it was on a schedule (like every 50,000 to 100,000rds or something like that).
My Gen2 G19 has WAY over 100k rounds through it and the only things that have been changed are the springs. Still shoots just fine....In fact I like it better than my Gen5 G19
@@cantsneedgaming4591 I can given the story from SPN and the history. I'm just a regular guy and it's not hard for me to spent a few grand a year on ammo. I buy 1000 rounds at a time of 9mm and I shoot my glock 26 every single time I go shoot... whether fun or match.
Glock actually purchased a handgun from a gun range that had one with over 2 or 3 million rounds through it. Was like 2.3 million or 3.3 million or something like that. Only had the barrel changed once and the recoil springs changed every so many rounds.
This is a really good concept in TH-cam videos I had a Ruger P89 stolen from me that I personally had put approx. 2000 rounds through when stolen it was recovered 20 or so odd years later by the Sheriffs department and I have it back in my possession now the barrel was slap wore out though when I got it back and it had a 30 round extended magazine that was a bonus that wasn't in the pistol when it was stolen. Thanks Walton County Georgia Sheriffs department for your excellent policing and even all those years later for returning my firearm to me I learned my lesson about making sure my firearms are secure especially if you leave them in a vehicle while traveling. OFC I have no idea about the number or rounds that were fired through that pistol but when the shooter is using 30 round mags that probably means they like to spray and prey or rapid fire the thing just by looking at the absence of the rifling and the looseness of the unlocking ring I can tell it has seen a lot of use
I had a Glock 17 that had almost as many rounds through it, it was from the first batch of 2,000 guns, serial# AB646. Those guns didn't have a serial# on the frame. The original barrels were left in the white and I'm not sure what the slide was finished with but it was something a lot more basic than the Tenifer finish. That thing had nearly an inch of bore erosion from the front of the chamber into the rifling and there were various lines of erosion going down the grooves. It still grouped reasonably well though, no keyholes, but the groups were getting quite large. Anyway, it's now a manhole cover, courtesy of HM Govt. I should have held onto one of the mags, the original magazines had a square cut for the breech face to pass over, rather than the round cut they have now. It even had the original springs from what I remember. A few years later I was talking to Robert Glock and he said: "Oh, you should have sent it to us and we could have put a serial# in the frame and you could have exported it to the US." Now you tell me. Personally, I think that was impossible, the frame had started to split at the muzzle end and you have to put on target sights to get enough points for import. And also, ATF knows the serial number range so I seriously doubt I would have gotten a permit. Anyway, no great loss. Might have had a low serial# but it was properly f---ed. I have to say it does make me laugh when I see how prolific they are now. Back in the 1980s, most people thought they were silly.
The highest round count I’ve had on a gun was my old service issue it was a gen 3 23 with about 68k on it but that was years of service I only put about 20k on it in 2.5 years. The last qualification I had with it was finally taken out of service due to the lack of reliability and accuracy. Every one that knows me knows I’m a damn good shot. So when my target looked crazy and I had 12 malfunctions out of 50 rounds they took the gun for benched testing and it could not hold a group and shot inconsistent to point of aim because the rifling was worn out. Looking forward to see your accuracy with this barrel also recommend using bore camera to make sure the inside of the barrel doesn’t show any weak points
Just by looking at it he fired a lot of lead cast rounds thru it. I would ultrasonic it and clean the hell out of the bore. And do a before and after test. When I was about 22 my dad gave me a S&W 669 that shot like crap. I took it home and literally spent hours upon hour upon hours scrubbing the lead out of the barrel, it was a nightmare but a labor of love as well. When I was done it was extremely accurate and very reliable, I still have it to this day over 37 years later. He told me that he only used lead “wad cutters” thru it because it was cheap. NONE of my firearms (and I have over 50) except that one has ever seen lead touch the barrel. I am so glad I learned that lesson at such a young age, I also never run steel cased ammo thru my firearms. My boat gun only sees nickel plated cased ammo.
Lead isn’t the issue, small bullets or soft bullets is. My Springfield XD groups tightened up considerably by casting and sizing to 0.356” instead of the normal 0.355” that plated and jacketed are sized to. Factory barrel, same barrel. Tighter groups with handloads.
@@treasureplanet9082 That was what I saw as well but you are right, heck you aren’t even supposed to run lead rounds thru a Glock due to the polygonal rifling
You can actually put over a million rounds through a Glock barrel before it has to be replaced. I'm sure the ammo selection and how it's fired can make a difference, but there are Glocks with original barrels that have fired over a million rounds and they're still nowhere near being shot out/
I believe it. I sold my 26 for a 43x. But I made it to 25k nato and home defense rounds on a g19 before the extractor started stovepiping every now and then. I replaced everything but the extractor at 34k rounds. It’s failures are for training. If I’m doing work, it’s my g34…
I remember the very first handgun I ever owned after I got my permit after I turned 21 living in New York in the mid-2000s, I bought a very cheap 32 ACP, I don't remember what brand or model it was, it was some Italian made pistol and I remember it having virtually no rifling left. I wonder how many rounds were fired through that thing LOL
Armi/Tanfoglio, Beretta, Pedersoli and Bernardelli are some popular Italian gun companies that have been around a while. I'm sure there are many others though. Just having trouble recalling them.
bro you gotta check out the HK Vp9 SK! it is a badass subcompact. They also have the VP40. and/or the P30 SK. tho people have a lot of opinions on the trigger and like LEM or not. I'd probably get the P30 in the larger size but it is cool that it is a hammer fired subcompact. They have updated the magazine follower so they hold 12 flush, 15 mid grip extension and 17 rd full grip extension. It's awesome versatility and ergonomics with like 9 grip panel options. Vp9sk can be found used sometimes but new ones are optics ready. Definitely recommend the night sights as standard sights are like weird charged by light glow in the dark but some people like them. Theyre just a really dope subcompact carry gun and i'm surprised you dont have one honestly.
I have a P2000SK that is my EDC. I prefer a hammer gun for IWB, P2000 lacks the palmswell of VP9 and P30 so it’s thinner, but admittedly the mag release paddle is dinky
The throat of the barrel is where the majority of the wear would take place. I have a Colt 38-Super barrel that was used in competition and fired probably around 12,000 jacketed rounds and the throat of the barrel looks like a plowed field.
I agree about E-Bay as long as you check the stores reviews before you purchase and don't see or feel anything sketchy I have never lost out on a E-bay order either not for firearm parts but just in general stuff.
There was a gun range that had a Glock with over 2 million rounds through it (maybe over 3 million) and I believe Glock ended up buying it from them. Only had the barrel changed out once and the recoil springs changed out on a schedule. Otherwise though it's all original parts. I think it's a Gen 3 Glock.
The Quality and longevity of Glock pistol are second to none! I hate it when videos have the title Glock killer! There are what I believe are Glock equals and they are equals because of the high standards for a pistol that made the other manufacturers step up their game! BTW I’m a Smith and Wesson M&p guy but have much respect for Glocks!
I've carried a G27 for the past 8 years. It's a bit to bulky for me as I'm a pretty slender guy. I went out and bought a Taurus GX4 Carry yesterday. Already in love with it.
I had a G3C and thought I'd give the GX4 a try......i can NOT shoot that damned GX4 worth a damn!! No idea why. The G3C is fine, no problem. GX4?? PROBLEM.....lol and it really IS a fair bit smaller/lighter than the G3C
I can second that. I buy alot of stuff from ebay. Firearm goods and loads of other stuff. My girl likes to shop and we've never had any problems. Its not to say it doesn't happened. I find as long as you check the records of whoever your buying from, you should be golden. The sellers account is valuable if they are an accomplished ebay store, they won't want to screw that up. My girl loves her 26. Its a nice reliable little pistol. I can definitely get the job done with a 26 but my hands are a little on the large size. The glock 19 is my EDC. All my guns are cleaned and maintained to a high standards. A second g19 was added to my collection so when one was down for a full cleaning id have another to take its place. I have a few other conseal carries that have proven reliable. The Sig P365 and CZ P10C are two I could pick up in place of my glock and be comfortable with them. I wouldn't want it to be a permanent switch though. They are all good options. They all have pros and cons over each other. My own personal experiences and testing makes me favor my Glock for everyday, conseal carrie.
Yeah I found a lot of parts for my older guns like my sears and roebuck (Marlin 80) for magazines and parts. Even found some stocks. Find a lot of small parts. Especially hard to find stuff like Makarov stuff.
Ebay is a goldmine. A lot of good kit on there too, especially like Crye precision plate carriers u can get delivered in 3 days vs Cryes 6 to 9 month lead time
It's probably legit. He says in one part of the video "ultralight competition loads". Guys that shoot ISPC or similar competitions can go through 5k rounds a month. Say he's had that gun for 2.5 years and that'd be about right. The only thing that seems like Glock-sucking to me was the "never cleans it" part. Let's be real, anyone who buys competition ammo, and shoots so often is going to clean their gun. Why buy ultralight loads if you won't keep your weapon cleaned well?
@@narendra7817you have no idea what you are talking about in regards to competition shooters regularly cleaning their gun. Many of us never clean our guns
Length of a bullet: The bullet is 9 mm long. Number of bullets: 121,000 bullets were fired. Total length of bullets: Multiply the length of a bullet by the number of bullets: Total length length = number of bullets × length of a bullet Total length length = number of bullets×length of a bullet Total length length = 121000 × 9 mm Total length length =121000×9 mm Conversion to meters: Since meters are a more common unit of measurement for lengths in the barrel of a gun, we divide by 1000 to get the length in meters obtained: Total length in meters = 121000 × 9 1000 m Total length in meters= 1000 121000×9 m Calculation: Total length in meters = 1089000 m Total length in meters=1089000 m Taking the round spherical shape into account: Since the round shape of the bullet does not touch the barrel and thus the effective barrel passage is smaller, only the length of the cylindrical part that actually touches the barrel is taken into account. The total length that the bullets passed through the barrel is therefore 1089,000 meters.
I won a Glock 26.5 MOS from GT Distributors yesterday. Got any suggestions on fun parts to try out? I might play around with this glock since it was free.
@@pewpew9193 I'm not sure about the performance trigger, but Timney don't recommend their triggers for concealed carry. I know how the Timney trigger works for the most part... but I'm not sure if it has a drop safety. I've never seen one disassembled, to see all the parts and how they function (what you can't see)... but if you go by what you can see, there's no visible drop safety to stop the sear from dropping if the gun is ever dropped on the magazine. Wish I knew someone that owned one to get a good look at one/both of them entirely. I'll actually never buy a gun or gun part if I don't know precisely how it works and can verify that it's safe.
@@pewpew9193 Yeah... but that still won't stop the sear from releasing the striker. Even if the gun wouldn't fire, your striker would be slammed into the safety plunger. Also, the sear being able to drop down from being dropped would completely make the trigger dongle useless. Then you're only relying on one single safety and not 3 like normal... and it's far more likely for one safety to fail than to have 3 safeties fail. That striker safety plunger is also held in place by a spring, which can be compressed from impact or kinetic energy... and also shock and vibrations can actually disable springs (not just from a straight impact like the usual kinetic energy, but in an entirely different way). I think there's a reason that Timney doesn't recommend their triggers for carry... but I can't confirm that they don't have a drop safety designed into the sear to stop if from releasing the striker if dropped. At the very least, you would go to use your gun and find out that you have a dead trigger (and would have to then rack the gun to be able to fire)... which could cause a person to be killed in a real life self defense situation. It would turn a 1.5 into a 4 or 5 second draw... and racking a firearm is the time a gun it most likely to fail/jam. Guns jam more often when people rack them than they do from being fired.
@deucedeuce1572 If you drop your gun & don't check on everything, you're clueless from the beginning. Timney dosen't recommend their trigger for carry because of the pull weight. The Glock Performance Trigger says it keeps every saftey in place. I've also put thousands of rounds with them in competition & training with no issues. They still say the trigger is for competition because of the pull weight.
Ive put 12,500 rounds through my psa dagger that i bought when they first released a few years ago, the finish on the outside of my barrel looks sooo extremely much more worn that this, i have a really hard time believing that this barrel has literally 10x the round count and has barely even has the coating worn down. I can post a video inspection if anyones actually curious what a 10k+ round "glock" barrel looks like, its way more rough than this

@user-xp5vi6oy4g I bet your a real hoot at both parties and funerals aren't you? I suspect you love to give free advice and talking to "the manager" frequently.
You should 1) soak the inside with lead remover liquid. Run a copper brush several times and again w the remover....... I got a Gen2 .40 police trade in. Plan was to only change springs.....well that POS was inaccurate ass hell. Got a new locking block, new barrel, and all springs and sights..... now it's OK'ish..... . Gen 2 19 works perfect, probably has more shots..., changed all springs....that can shoot at 10yd one inch free hand pattern. Slide finish on both is bad, but no rust.
Yeah, the old Glock coating isn't very tough at all... but the Tenifer finish beneath it is extremely tough and corrosion resistant. I'm not sure about Gen 4 and Gen 5 Glocks, but Gen 3 and older have the old Glock coating that's really easy to scratch. I thought that was the Tenifer, but the Tenifer is below that and it's clear (silver) in color. Once had an older G43 slide and an aftermarket Black Nitride G43 slide in the same hand and the Black Nitride slide easily scratched the hell out of the OEM G43 slide as if it was coated with nothing more than wax crayons. Had no idea that was possible until I saw it. Then I only later found out that the coating is just a coating and not the actual finish. I know some Gen 4 and Gen 5 slides have a different finish/coating, like the Teflon Glocks... but I don't know which are which and/or which are better (if any). I know Teflon can be extremely tough... but at the same time I've seen teflon pans have their teflon just flake off or peel off with little to no effort at all. The same is true with Cerakote. I've seen some extremely durable Cerakote guns, but at the same times I've seen Cerakote coating flake off like snow just from being shot... and in some cases I've even seen people scrape Cerakote off with their finger nails.
That just needs to be cleaned thoroughly. If I look past the accumulated powder residue I can see rifling. My G23 from at least 25 years ago had less than that. Mine actually looked like a blunderbuss with scratch rifling, and it still shot pretty good. You tell it was worn because the group size was getting bigger every year. The Glock barrels are pretty damn hard stuff, that is not a 4150-grade steel. Maybe ar500 abrasion resistant? Anyway, that barrel is still useful, it's called combat accuracy, since I dun shot you once there and it did not work so I want the next one to somewhere else, hence larger groups are actually good. I think the NYS Police have one with a documented 1 million rounds through it.
People like this guy ruin everything, they doubt anything because they could never do it or see them selves with the deviations and drive to do this. Oh well. Next.

The throat of the barrel is where the majority of the wear would take place. I have a Colt 38-Super barrel that was used in competition and fired probably around 12,000 jacketed rounds and the throat of the barrel looks like a plowed field.
crazy mine has similar wear with only 10kish rounds
What grip tape is that you have??? NICE!
I agree about E-Bay as long as you check the stores reviews before you purchase and don't see or feel anything sketchy I have never lost out on a E-bay order either not for firearm parts but just in general stuff.
Glock Perfection
Glock perfection 🎯
I visited Glock in Smyrna a few years ago. They have a G17 from their first run of manufacture. Tech said barrel had 275k thru at that point.
Bonkers!
There was a gun range that had a Glock with over 2 million rounds through it (maybe over 3 million) and I believe Glock ended up buying it from them. Only had the barrel changed out once and the recoil springs changed out on a schedule. Otherwise though it's all original parts. I think it's a Gen 3 Glock.
This is like one of my fish stories. Gets bigger every time.😂
The Quality and longevity of Glock pistol are second to none! I hate it when videos have the title Glock killer! There are what I believe are Glock equals and they are equals because of the high standards for a pistol that made the other manufacturers step up their game! BTW I’m a Smith and Wesson M&p guy but have much respect for Glocks!
Him: "Look at the bore."
Me: "I am looking but don't see any."
People laugh when I say ebay and doubt my 26 until they shoot it and love it instantly
I love my Glock more than my wife. 😂
I love my glock more then you wife 2 g Buh duh tist 😂😂🥹 kidding
😂
Well duh....who's wife is good for that many bangs with no lube?
We all do...
I love my Pistols more than I luv yur wife, as well.
That barrel u got from guy, the wear looks exactly like the wear that happens on the gen 5 barrels.
I've carried a G27 for the past 8 years. It's a bit to bulky for me as I'm a pretty slender guy. I went out and bought a Taurus GX4 Carry yesterday. Already in love with it.
I had a G3C and thought I'd give the GX4 a try......i can NOT shoot that damned GX4 worth a damn!! No idea why. The G3C is fine, no problem. GX4?? PROBLEM.....lol and it really IS a fair bit smaller/lighter than the G3C
how many recoil springs changed in between ?
This is why i laugh at the gun shop when people talk about "low round count". It's not something thar really matters on your average pistol.
The 26 is still my favorite
conservatively $24K worth of factory ammo
Here's kind of dumb question; but can that be re-bored or something like that?
I can second that. I buy alot of stuff from ebay. Firearm goods and loads of other stuff. My girl likes to shop and we've never had any problems. Its not to say it doesn't happened. I find as long as you check the records of whoever your buying from, you should be golden. The sellers account is valuable if they are an accomplished ebay store, they won't want to screw that up. My girl loves her 26. Its a nice reliable little pistol. I can definitely get the job done with a 26 but my hands are a little on the large size. The glock 19 is my EDC. All my guns are cleaned and maintained to a high standards. A second g19 was added to my collection so when one was down for a full cleaning id have another to take its place. I have a few other conseal carries that have proven reliable. The Sig P365 and CZ P10C are two I could pick up in place of my glock and be comfortable with them. I wouldn't want it to be a permanent switch though. They are all good options. They all have pros and cons over each other. My own personal experiences and testing makes me favor my Glock for everyday, conseal carrie.
Impressive
it looks really good for that many tbh
Yeah I found a lot of parts for my older guns like my sears and roebuck (Marlin 80) for magazines and parts. Even found some stocks. Find a lot of small parts. Especially hard to find stuff like Makarov stuff.
Ebay is a goldmine. A lot of good kit on there too, especially like Crye precision plate carriers u can get delivered in 3 days vs Cryes 6 to 9 month lead time
I'm more impressed he was willing to shell out the coin for 121k rounds thru a g26
Incredible. This barrel has had a little less than $50,000 worth of ammo sent through it. That alone is wild.
20-30k but agreed!
@@spnfirearms I did my math using .40 cents a round
121,600 rounds of 115 FMJ at lets say .23 per round, bro that's $28K in ammo. Damn dude life's good!
I'd make a key chain fob out of it. Easy to do and no mods needed
cool beans!
121,000 rounds, at $250 for every 1,000 rounds is over $30,000 worth of cheap 9mm rounds. Sounds like a far tale..
It's probably legit. He says in one part of the video "ultralight competition loads". Guys that shoot ISPC or similar competitions can go through 5k rounds a month. Say he's had that gun for 2.5 years and that'd be about right. The only thing that seems like Glock-sucking to me was the "never cleans it" part. Let's be real, anyone who buys competition ammo, and shoots so often is going to clean their gun. Why buy ultralight loads if you won't keep your weapon cleaned well?
If he had it a while then he could have gotten a lot of 9mm back in the day for less than $150 per thousand.
@@narendra7817you have no idea what you are talking about in regards to competition shooters regularly cleaning their gun. Many of us never clean our guns
@@narendra7817 Are you implying he used his 26 for competition? Exclusively, for years on end? Be real.
Guy might be a reloader with that level of dedication. Wouldn’t be surprised if the average was more like 18 cpr
Around $43,000 worth of ammo if I did the math correctly?
What gen is that barrel from ?
Length of a bullet: The bullet is 9 mm long.
Number of bullets: 121,000 bullets were fired.
Total length of bullets: Multiply the length of a bullet by the number of bullets:
Total length
length
=
number of bullets
×
length
of a bullet
Total length
length
=
number of bullets×length
of a bullet
Total length

=
121000

Total length

=121000×9 mm
Conversion to meters: Since meters are a more common unit of measurement for lengths in the barrel of a gun, we divide by 1000 to get the length in meters obtained:
Total length in meters
=
121000
×
9
1000
m
Total length in meters=
1000
121000×9
m
Calculation:
Total length in meters
=
1089000
m
Total length in meters=1089000 m
Taking the round spherical shape into account: Since the round shape of the bullet does not touch the barrel and thus the effective barrel passage is smaller, only the length of the cylindrical part that actually touches the barrel is taken into account.
The total length that the bullets passed through the barrel is therefore 1089,000 meters.
Except 9mm doesn't refer to its length lmao
I won a Glock 26.5 MOS from GT Distributors yesterday. Got any suggestions on fun parts to try out? I might play around with this glock since it was free.
One of the fully pre-cocked trigger systems.
Glock Performance, Timney.
Significant upgrades for not a lot of money.
@@pewpew9193 I'm not sure about the performance trigger, but Timney don't recommend their triggers for concealed carry. I know how the Timney trigger works for the most part... but I'm not sure if it has a drop safety. I've never seen one disassembled, to see all the parts and how they function (what you can't see)... but if you go by what you can see, there's no visible drop safety to stop the sear from dropping if the gun is ever dropped on the magazine. Wish I knew someone that owned one to get a good look at one/both of them entirely. I'll actually never buy a gun or gun part if I don't know precisely how it works and can verify that it's safe.
@deucedeuce1572 The striker plunger saftey is still fully intact & the inertial drop safety on the trigger is still fully intact.
@@pewpew9193 Yeah... but that still won't stop the sear from releasing the striker. Even if the gun wouldn't fire, your striker would be slammed into the safety plunger. Also, the sear being able to drop down from being dropped would completely make the trigger dongle useless. Then you're only relying on one single safety and not 3 like normal... and it's far more likely for one safety to fail than to have 3 safeties fail. That striker safety plunger is also held in place by a spring, which can be compressed from impact or kinetic energy... and also shock and vibrations can actually disable springs (not just from a straight impact like the usual kinetic energy, but in an entirely different way).
I think there's a reason that Timney doesn't recommend their triggers for carry... but I can't confirm that they don't have a drop safety designed into the sear to stop if from releasing the striker if dropped.
At the very least, you would go to use your gun and find out that you have a dead trigger (and would have to then rack the gun to be able to fire)... which could cause a person to be killed in a real life self defense situation. It would turn a 1.5 into a 4 or 5 second draw... and racking a firearm is the time a gun it most likely to fail/jam. Guns jam more often when people rack them than they do from being fired.
@deucedeuce1572 If you drop your gun & don't check on everything, you're clueless from the beginning.
Timney dosen't recommend their trigger for carry because of the pull weight.
The Glock Performance Trigger says it keeps every saftey in place.
I've also put thousands of rounds with them in competition & training with no issues.
They still say the trigger is for competition because of the pull weight.
Wish I had the 24K or so I’d build a garage!!
I cant take my eyes off your Garand Thumb ;)
Very cool story. It’s good to know that you can buy a single Glock or HK any never have worry about replacing it.
My gen 5 GMB barrel looks like shit with lots of metal missing. Nitride is flacking. Glock says normal wear 😂
You been doing some pvc piping work I see haha.
Haha yessir. New construction plumber here!
What a find!
Ive put 12,500 rounds through my psa dagger that i bought when they first released a few years ago, the finish on the outside of my barrel looks sooo extremely much more worn that this, i have a really hard time believing that this barrel has literally 10x the round count and has barely even has the coating worn down. I can post a video inspection if anyones actually curious what a 10k+ round "glock" barrel looks like, its way more rough than this
I bet it runs buttery smooth though
So at 25c'ish a round... 30,500$ Holy hell my guy 😂❤
Just a casual business expense 🤣
He shot Liberia‘s deficit though that barrel
Amazing
If the 26 is good enough for John wick, its good enough.
John Wick is not a real human. I hope you are just making a light hearted jest. I really can't imagine anything else. ... If so, I don't mean to sound insulting. ... If not, then it's as annoying than when a person says : "If It Was Good Enough For James Bond.".
@user-xp5vi6oy4g I bet your a real hoot at both parties and funerals aren't you?
I suspect you love to give free advice and talking to "the manager" frequently.
Its the Toyota of pistols.
That purple primer 🚽 🫡
Yessir, respect
If there are really that many rounds through it that is impressive, not a Glock fan here either but got to give some credit to them.
You should 1) soak the inside with lead remover liquid. Run a copper brush several times and again w the remover....... I got a Gen2 .40 police trade in. Plan was to only change springs.....well that POS was inaccurate ass hell. Got a new locking block, new barrel, and all springs and sights..... now it's OK'ish..... . Gen 2 19 works perfect, probably has more shots..., changed all springs....that can shoot at 10yd one inch free hand pattern. Slide finish on both is bad, but no rust.
Yeah, the old Glock coating isn't very tough at all... but the Tenifer finish beneath it is extremely tough and corrosion resistant. I'm not sure about Gen 4 and Gen 5 Glocks, but Gen 3 and older have the old Glock coating that's really easy to scratch. I thought that was the Tenifer, but the Tenifer is below that and it's clear (silver) in color. Once had an older G43 slide and an aftermarket Black Nitride G43 slide in the same hand and the Black Nitride slide easily scratched the hell out of the OEM G43 slide as if it was coated with nothing more than wax crayons. Had no idea that was possible until I saw it. Then I only later found out that the coating is just a coating and not the actual finish. I know some Gen 4 and Gen 5 slides have a different finish/coating, like the Teflon Glocks... but I don't know which are which and/or which are better (if any). I know Teflon can be extremely tough... but at the same time I've seen teflon pans have their teflon just flake off or peel off with little to no effort at all. The same is true with Cerakote. I've seen some extremely durable Cerakote guns, but at the same times I've seen Cerakote coating flake off like snow just from being shot... and in some cases I've even seen people scrape Cerakote off with their finger nails.
You put $20,000 down that barrel. Holy fuck.
Is that pvc primer
That just needs to be cleaned thoroughly. If I look past the accumulated powder residue I can see rifling. My G23 from at least 25 years ago had less than that. Mine actually looked like a blunderbuss with scratch rifling, and it still shot pretty good. You tell it was worn because the group size was getting bigger every year. The Glock barrels are pretty damn hard stuff, that is not a 4150-grade steel. Maybe ar500 abrasion resistant? Anyway, that barrel is still useful, it's called combat accuracy, since I dun shot you once there and it did not work so I want the next one to somewhere else, hence larger groups are actually good. I think the NYS Police have one with a documented 1 million rounds through it.
Wow! That's very impressive, but not too surprising from Glock.
121K rounds XDD YEAH SUREEE
People like this guy ruin everything, they doubt anything because they could never do it or see them selves with the deviations and drive to do this. Oh well. Next.
@@spnfirearms I mean sure but I wanna see some proof.
@@spnfirearmsnot everyone is just gonna believe outlandish statements without proof..
You know people lie on the internet right? If i claim i scaled the everest without gear and i dont show ANY proof i kinda dont have the right to say they ruin the fun because they dont believe my story.
If the guy had a 121,600 round drum mag with a happy switch, he would have need to hold the trigger down for 100 mins (assuming the barrel never melted)
It's a *smooth operator*
