    I know it was 1yr ago, but ammo selection is very important w this setup. Winchester White Box n Blazer Brass or aluminum and other 115gr cheap loads will smtimes not eject and stovepipe or just not rack back. I read that 124gr +p ammo helps the barrel marry to the gun by lining up rails and springs on break in but I think its just finicky w ammo selection. He has a SS or tungsten guide rod in like me so I would love to see him or sm1 (Paul Harrel?) fire several rounds of different loads 115gr-147gr +p and +p+ even to see failure rate. I also have a 10" 357sig match IGB barrel that i put in a standard MCK unit as a bugout experiment. Its ok but im using 40sw mags w 357sig w varying results. Wouldnt trust my life w it but a G19 or plain G22 40sw in the MCK runs smooth as butter and makes the glocks much more accurate thru recoil taming almost completely. The lone wolf 9mm threaded barrel is ammo sensitive and extractor works but the rounds fall on top of ur head in my rig.

      You can get lighter recoil springs that make it cycle easier with less hot ammo.

    It just needs a 9mm extractor & ejector so it will hook/pull the casing better. Everybody will tell you it runs fine without switching it and you can get away with it, but if you want it to actually throw brass away and not come straight back down in the chamber; change them.

      I came here to say exactly this. I’m a GLOCK Certified Armorer, and per the armorer manual, there is a stark difference between the geometry in the 9mm and .40 extractor and ejector housing. I’ve serviced a dozen botched 40 to 9mm conversions in the last six months; all of them had extraction problems that were resolved by installing the correct 9mm specific parts.

    so, what model 9mm magazine would I need for a 9mm conversion on a Glock 23? Thanks in advance.

    • @Bigblue423
      @Bigblue423 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      +Anothercivilian If you want it to fit flush in the pistol a Glock 19 magazine will be what you are looking for. You can also use a Glock 17 magazines, though it will stick out a bit and you can also get the 33 round Glock 18 magazines. You can use just about any model 9mm magazine and it will work aside from the Glock
      26 size mags as they are too short to fit properly/lock in.

      You should swap both the extractor and ejector in addition to using the 9mm barrel and mags if you're going to rely on it for self-defense. Give it a good 200-round test, too.

      Lonewolf used to make a 40-9 conversion barrel for the 27. No other change is needed for fun at the range. If you're going to keep it that way, you'll need to change to a 9mm extractor and ejector. Not expensive and you can do it yourself.

      @vladimirlopez7840 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Timothy Padilla no it won't because the outer diameter of the conversion barrel is bigger to fit the opening the the front of the slide on a 40. If you used a Glock 26 barrel it would be rattling around in that front opening

      Just shot my converted Glock 22 Gen 2 yesterday. I was shooting Magtech 115 gr. Out of a box of 50 I got hit in the face 2 or 3 times. I don't want to change out anything but the barrel so that I can still fire 40 S&W when I want. This situation is acceptable for the range but I wouldn't carry with the 9mm barrel without changing all the appropriate parts.

      I’m a GLOCK Certified Armorer, and per the armorer manual, there is a stark difference between the geometry in the 9mm and .40 extractor and ejector housing. Contrary to popular belief, and Lonewolf’s marketing, these two parts HAVE to be replaced to avoid extraction/ejection problems.

      I've heard sometimes you may need to change the ejector to a 9mm, the 9mm ejector has a dogleg bend in it. But I have the lonewolf 9mm conversion barrel in a Glock 23 gen 3 and haven't changed the ejector, and other than it ejecting brass wildly it's worked flawlessly. If it was throwing brass back in my face or on top of my head I would change it, but it doesn't. I'm very satisfied with the Lonewolf conversion barrel. The machining and rifling is done beautifully, I was truly surprised.

    • @FUBARguy107

      I bought the Lone Wolf Barrel a very short time ago and finally got to go out shooting yesterday for Gustav Glocks birthday. The ejector definitely needs to be changed because the shell casings were Landing in my shirt pocket and burning my chest. The .40 cal casings launch.

  • @dorenecristler6932

    If the rim diameter of the 9mm is 9.96 mm (0.392 in), and the rim diameter of the .40s&w is .424 in (10.8 mm), why don't you have to swap out the bolt when you change barrels?

    • @richarddevore1127
