Glock 20 10mm with 9mm conversion from Lone Wolf

[wild cat mccane]

Hello,

Does anyone have the Lone Wolf 9mm conversion for their Glock 20 10mm?

How how has it been for you for reliability?

Thanks!

Good topic, I am interested in any replies also.

Okay...

So if you use a stock G20 mag, does it matter that the round can move horizontally?

Where can one pick up a 11lb spring for the Gen4 model?

Does it have to use +p or does a really hot round work (Lawman or S&B at 1200fps)?

I didn't know you could convert a Glock 20 to 9mm.

I've heard of their 40-9mm conversion barrel and converting a .45 to 10mm but have not heard of a 10mm-9mm conversion barrel.

not listed as of a few days ago, it's a 6" barrel. All you need is an 11lb spring.

I looked into a couple years ago when I was interested in doing a conversion to .38 Super. Lonewolf told me at the time that you had to tweak g-20 mags to hold the 9mm, and reliability was way iffy.

You can run a gen 3 stainless rod with a gen 4 adapter nut along with an 11 lb spring.

The longitudinal movement would be a bigger problem.

Any other platform that can convert between 9mm or .40 and 10mm or .45 is usually an entire slide assembly plus magazine. Barrel only between 10mm and .40 is doable, but going down to 9mm rim diameter creates a problem with extraction.

My Sig P229 in 357 (same head diameter as 10mm) is 100% reliable with a 9mm barrel and mag installed. No reason to think a Glock would behave any differently. I frequently switch between loading 9mm and 40 without changing shell plates. The difference in head diameter isn't all that big of a deal when going from 40 to 9. It might be a problem going the other way however.

How many 9mm rounds can you fit into a 15 round G20 mag?

 

[wild cat mccane]

19 rounds.

Not sure if that is reliable though
