This is still alive???? Just a few thoughts:
"I also laugh as those who like to claim the Glock is an inferior pistol because you can't shoot lead bullets out of them. Well I shoot lead bullets out of all my full sized Glocks. You buy a drop in aftermarket barrel and blaze away creating all the lead fumes you want."
Glock doesn't want you shooting lead bullet because of the polygon rifling. Polygon rifling is cheaper to cut and very accurate with jacketed bullets. All the folks who produce pistols with this type of rifling don't want you running soft lead bullet through them because lead tends to get sticky in them. You might find really hard cast bullets which will be okay but as a general rule they don't want you over pressuring your gun and causing problems due to softer cast bullets. I also don't think anyone makes a bbl that is "drop in". Anyone putting in a after market bbl should have it checked out by somone that is qualified and CERTIFIED.
Why all the Glock Hate?
Because they are either the cheapest, crappiest, non-metal framed pieces of shooting garbarge ever made or it is because they are a Divine Gift from The Lord to Mr. Glock. I tend to think they fall somewhere in between with the rest of the pack.....
