Lone wolf barrels
Just got back from the range and after firing my glock 26 with a new compensated 2 slot barrel, I must say that I'm truly impressed. It does what it's supposed to. Follow up shots are quicker on target and is more accurate because of barrel length. Barrel protrudes about 1" from frame. Highly recommended. Can't wait to go to the range again. Until next time, tight groups!

I have a Lone Wolf 6" barrel in my Glock 20 currently. I have been happy with it so far.

If you didn't measure them, it's very common to "feel" that a new piece of equipment made things better when it really didn't make any difference, and in some cases actually made them worse. |

I got a Lone Wolf 40sw barrel for my Glock G29 10mm. It did well that I'm thinking of an extended 10mm barrel for it.

I have the Lone Wolf extended ported barrels and like them, reduces muzzle flip and increases velocity slightly.

In a gun with a longer slide, the normal companion to a longer barrel, the slightly greater sight radius can make it a tiny bit easier to shoot more accurately... but that's the sight radius not the barrel! (Some years back serious target shooters used extended sights that stuck out ahead of the barrel!) A longer barrel can give you a bit more velocity. I've had several Lone Wolf conversion barrels and they've all been good. A 9mm barrel LW barrel I owned for the Glock 35 seemed to function better with hotter loads. A lighter recoil spring assembly might have been the solution, but the 34 and 35 use the same recoil assembly -- and I didn't want to go with a different guide rod style (i.e. rod and separate, non-captured spring), so I just tried to find hotter ammo. (I don't roll my own...) |

I like the Lone Wolf that I put in my Glock 20. It seems to be more accurate but I swapped it out so early in ownership that I really couldn't tell you. I handload, 10mm brass is not cheap and I quickly got tired of bulged brass.
