Apparently this will be first time the gun will be shot with this barrel.
No, this isn't a SSE or anything, so I'm curious as to if it will cycle. Gun otherwise stock 3 gen.
Any tips on Bubba-dizing a front sight onto the end the barrel?
I'm thinking a hose clamp will be involved. I've got some aluminum pipe of about right diameter, so maybe just slit the pipe, clamp and bend-up appropriate tabs off the pipe, and a dot of nail polish. Maybe even bend up a 'hood' or at least a couple 'horns' on either side for protection.
Unfortunately, the sight will need to come off when barrel gets swapped back.
I suppose if I was to want to get fancy we could drill a couple tiny 'keeper' indents into the end of the barrel and have a couple matching bumps on the body of the sight so it would be re-installable to same 'zero' after barrel swaps.
Word is 3.5" of extra barrel doesn't do much for the .40 S&W because it was designed for 4" barrel from the get go.....SO.....
if anyone wants to borrow, or buy a LoneWolf .40 Glock 35 9" barrel for their Gen 4 Glock35 SSE project, send me PM.
Bubba says a 9mm conversion barrel is sounding better.
However, maybe the 9" barrel will have same effect as those tungsten extra heavy spring rods, plus a little extra "longitude" stability, and about 100fps.
PS-seems the 9" barrel has a little bit of play when installed, is that normal?
