Lead in a glock
I have a glock 23 that i've had for a awhile now and i also have a xd in 40 also. I've been recently thinkin about reloading lead bullets to shoot out of them with the rising cost of ammo. So i started doing some research on it and ended up on this site and read all the postings about this. So i'm new here but what i'm not new at is guns and reloading. Most manufactures are going to recommend not to shoot reloads, especially nowadays with all the lawsuits, because alot of people that try to do it basically don't know what there doing. That stands to reason. If you know what you are doing and you use the proper powder and charge, the right lead bullet and seat it at the right depth and keep a eye on the barrel from the get go for lead and clean it regular, your not gonna have any problems. Common since. But that goes with any firearm, not just a glock. So yes people that know there stuff i can see where they shoot thousands of rounds of lead through there glocks. People who don't, do what the factory tells yuh. It sounds like to me the best bet would be to buy a aftermarket barrel that fully supports the case for extra strength. What barrels do ya reccomend? Thanks for the help and look forward to the forum.
