Oh learned ones,
I'm usually here and there on the Rifles portion, but this one is a Glock question, so I'm over hear for good advice.
A friend recently came upon a 10mm Glock. This G20 is an early one (no rail, no drop free mags - circa 1993), but has been fired little and well cared for. However, it fired some lead bullets. I would estimate several hundred AT MOST. Likely less than 250. It also had perhaps twice that number of jacketed rounds fired through it. I know that this is a roughly accurate count since the original owner was another friend.
My question is this: does anything special need to be done to remove any residual leading in order to avoid the potential overpressure problem w/Glock barrels and lead bullets?
Would just normal cleaning and only jacked bullets from here out be OK? This will likely be shot with mainly full house 10mm loads, so my friend wants to know for sure that he's in good territory.
Thanks in advance for any help.
