I have a G17 and am going to buy a KKM barrel for it. I reload and shoot lead bullets. In my G40 MOS, the first thing I did was put a KKM barrel in it and it is the most accurate handgun I shoot.
So, I will order a KKM barrel for the G17 but can't decide whether to get the stock length or extended length barrel (6"). It will be used mostly at the range although it might be used occasionally hiking in a chest pack.
I'm wondering if there is any benefit of an extended barrel (I can't use a threaded barrel in my state) and how the balance might feel with the extra weight at the nose.
Any thoughts?
