I may purchase a new after market EFK Glock barrel for my 21 .45acp pistol.
I like the design but I'm not sure if it's set up for lead or reloaded bullets.

KKM, Bar-Sto, Storm Lake, Jarvis are all top brands too. Check them.

I am in the same boat, trying to decide between buying a 21 or a 41. I shoot mainly lead so the availability of a regular rifled barrel is important.

Have a Storm Lake barrel and I'm very impressed by their build quality and overall fit and finish.

I didn't see Lone Wolf Barrels on the list above. They make excellent drop in barrels and they are listing the Glock 41.

A lot of folks shoot lead bullets with their stock Glock barrels.
Are you sure you really need to go to the trouble and expense of fitting a replacement barrel?

I think the Lone wolf barrels are just under $110 and there is no fitting involved. They are drop in barrels. You will re-coup the cost fairly quickly by loading lead bullets.

Hang on to your Model 41s and remain patient.
Lead bullet safe replacement barrels should be available from several sources by early next year.

Call the better barrel makers (I am NOT talking about Lone Wolf or Storm Lake!!!!!!)

I would (DO!) pay the little bit extra for coated or plated bullets rather than buy an aftermarket barrel that made me feel safe with naked lead.

Now if I were an enthusiastic caster with a cheap source of lead...
But the answer to that is no and no.

You're right Jim, I shoot coated bullets in my Glock 19 with the stock barrel and they shoot just fine.

KKM is all I have ever used. More accurate than I can shoot. This was shot at 15 yards offhand, 200g.#68 H&G 4.3g. Bullseye.

I admit I am a Glock Fanboy. I have quite a few of them.

I shoot lead out of my stock/factory barrels whenever I want to. Even the G22 2nd gen I own. I never put over 100 at a time thru them, and always give them a good barrel cleaning when I'm done. Never any problems.

I do have aftermarket replacement barrels for some of them and switch them out occasionally. I use Lone Wolf and bought some Federal brand years ago. Never a problem out of any of them. I have a threaded Lone Wolf with their muzzle brake, that I use in a gen4 G17 in GSSF Unlimited division. With hot 124gr plated loads this setup performs well.

I've put thousands of my own cast lead alloy bullets through all my Glock OEM barrels. Been doing that since 1991. Pure lead might be a no-no, I dunno. But a properly sized and properly lubed cast bullet (sized to the individual bore) has yet to lead any of my bores ... 9mm included.

I didn't realize I had a problem with "lead" in Glocks until I read about it on the internet a few years ago. I wonder what other problems I've had all this time and don't know about.
