Glock after market barrel - 10mm

I've been looking around and haven't found any that are for the 20C - the compensated model.
I was going to try some lead reloads - hence the after market barrel.
My Glock is a Gen3 which from what I have read doesn't have such a pronounced issue of the unsupported chamber at 6 o'clock. I took the barrel out and dropped a round in that had black marker around the rim in order to measure the unsupported area. With digital calipers I get around .252" when measuring from the base/bottom of the case to the area that was unsupported.
How does this compare to after market barrels?

KKM also has a ported available for the 20, bought a 6"KKM from GlockMeister some 3 yrs back for shooting lead. It is a match barrel. Glockworx has barrels, believe I seen one that was ported as well. Some dragon name brand of barrel or something rather.

Not sure if he has a barrel for the compensated Glock, but, I've got a Bar-Sto .45 acp barrel for the G21 that is fantastic!!!!!!!!
Thousands of rounds through it.
Lone Wolf is also getting GREAT reviews, across the street at another forum.

Although mine is not ported, I did put a KKM conveesion bbl in my G20 and am ecstatic with it. It shoots consistently inside of 3.5" at 50 yards and pretty much always one-hole groups at close range like 15 yards and less.

Echoing the Lone Wolf barrels comment - I've fired thousands of (handloaded) rounds through mine in a G21SF without any issues.

On some of Bar-Sto's barrels, the underside of the locking area (proper term??) is oversize.
A little (literally) stoning will get the barrel a perfect fit.
It took me about 20 to 30 minutes of fitting to get my Bar-Sto barrel to fit with an incredible lock-up.
KKM's website is apparently down...
Lone Wolf has ported aftermarket barrels for G20:

I think you'll find Lone Wolf's pricing the sharpest, and they're an excellent company to deal with!
You can put a non-ported barrel in a compensated Glock, but you should not put a ported barrel in a non-compensated Glock.
Some owners of compensated Glocks drop in an aftermarket, non-ported barrel, for self-defense use, as they don't want those upward gas jets in that application. When this is done, the gun shoots and behaves like a non-compensated model.
Drop in barrels are just that--good to go, as is.
Semi-drop in, or fitted barrels, require some filing and fitting before they're ready for use.
