Glock Longside Build Questions

PunchinPaper · December 6, 2011, 09:04 AM

I have a few questions about assembling a Glock "Longslide" for those of you more knowledgeable on the topic than myself. I see several places offering 6" barrels for around the same prices. I have only found 2 distributors of slides,Lone Wolf and Caspian(Does Caspian sell the 6" barrel slides). I am looking into this for ideas on a 10mm LS build.
My questions are:
What slide (or combo) is best for top accuracy?
What kind of typical accuracy do the LS Glocks produce at 25yds?
Is there a comericial complete 10mm LS upper ?
How reliable do these LS Converisions feed?

This would be used on a G21SF.

I take it these arent as popular as I thought.
The main purpos of this idea is for hunting.
Then again I my just stick with the trusty 44.

My M35 can hold around 8" at 25. If it could receive a little more help from me, it could be better. My LEO buddy can tighten that up by 2-4 inches though.
I know you said 10mm, but you asked about lonslides also.

Thanks.. I always test handgun accuracy using sandbags or a rest at 25yrds to start with. If I am using optics I normally move out further once I see what the gun is capable of at 25. I think I'll put this LS idea on the back burner for now.
