Glock 30 to 29 Conversion, anyone have success?

[PatC415]

I've got a G20 so I'm in the 10mm game, and I've been reading up on 10mm conversions for my G30, but read nothing but reliability issues, and I'm not a big fan of conversions, although I have seen them run flawlessly, but not in 45 to 10mm.
Now I'm looking at purchasing a complete G29 10mm slide.
Glockmeister had them but no longer on their website.

Have any of you gentlemen gone this route? Any thoughts?

Thanks

Purchasing whole 29 slide? I haven't shot mine yet; I have a 30 and the only addition I thought was need was the barrel and maybe a new recoil spring.

I'd recommend buying a complete G29 upper instead of just a conversion barrel. IIRC, you can find complete uppers on Gunbroker for reasonable prices.

There's a lot of 10mm fans maybe someone will do a meet up and let you borrow a slide for a shooting session. Let you see how it runs .

You need G29 mags for sure. There’s a couple of YouTube vids by a guy who documents his trial and errors with a Storm Lake barrel + several spring changes, poor reliability: Ftf’s, Fte’s. I’m trying to find out if anyone has got a good solid combo to work flawlessly...my last resort would be a complete slide. Gunbroker has them but I might as well buy a G29 for what they are asking for just the slide!
I don’t see many come up in the marketplace, and several people looking for them.

I did the 21 to 20 conversion. Bought a 20 upper on gunbroker. Seller had mags as well. Picked up an aftermarket spring and guide rod. No problems.

Good luck

I've read good things about those, but not the 30/29.
