It was the Glock Store, OEM threaded barrels. All sold out however.Kinda curious what the link was anyway. And fir what product? The OEM's?
You just described any barrel shooting lead bullets.
ALL lead bullets cause leading. Some more than others. In ANY barrel with ANY rifling.
Glock sold primarily to police starting out. To avoid liability of a known issue among American lead projectiles (unknown bullets made from various leads), they chose to insert that bit into their manual to prevent having to warrant someone blowing up their gun because they don't understand lead bullets.
Has NOTHING to do with whether or not lead bullets work in their barrels.
What's more accurate? The toaster or the glock?My late buddies place.
Kevin gave me the barrel for my open gun project.
KKM
they are accurate and withstand major 9 loads.
I'm moving a 115gr at 1440fps

You can lead up any kind of barrel.From The High Road "As lead builds up in the (Glock) poly rifling it causes higher and higher pressure when each additional round is fired. With Glocks its really a bad deal because the lead can build up to the point where the pistol dosen't go into battery completely and the next thing you know... there is another KA BOOM"
This is why the jesus saw fit to include them with the purchase of each and every Glock.where do you guys even get your stock barrels? i dont think ive ever seen them for sale as a stand alone.
Lol. Strong opinion, i like it.KKM, Bar-Sto, Jarvis. Everything else is CRAP!
But JMB died before his Austrian son took overThis is why the jesus saw fit to include them with the purchase of each and every Glock.
Even the manufacturers don't manufacture parts like that...Any car that can run a 14" tire can run any 14' tire that fits. There are no Toyota or Ford tires.
You get tires from Les Schwab - You get CV joints from the manufacturer.
YMMV
you beat me to itGlock factory barrels shoot lead just fine.
I might get pictures next time I shoot lead to show. My gen 5 G34 does NOT do lead. One mag and it's ugly but my gen 4 G19 doesn't seem to care, nor does my gen 4 G21. I'm going to chalk it up to velocity without better proof but I think it just depends on the specific barrel and lead that goes through it. I only use glock brand glock stuff in my glocks because they work darn it.The Gen 5 is supposed to shoot it just fine. The Gen 1-4 is not supposed to but I never tried. Never had a desire to shoot the lead ones anyway.
I think lead (even soft lead) starts failing around 1800fps+ so youd REALLY have to be smoking 'em out of there.I might get pictures next time I shoot lead to show. My gen 5 G34 does NOT do lead.

Internet wins again...I've seen and read dozens of 'credible' sources saying excess buildup due the rifling in Glock factory barrels, Glock says avoid lead bullets. You're the only one I've ever heard of saying it's because Glock is afraid of unsafe lead reloads.
I think you made that up. Whether you did or didn't, I don't believe it.
Stork Lake and Wilson are decent. I haven't tried Jarvis. Forgot all about Bar-Sto; they were THE company to go to for 1911 barrels many years ago. Great stuff.KKM, Bar-Sto, Jarvis. Everything else is CRAP!
