Got a buddy who just installed a LWD drop in 9mm barrel in his G22 and it works flawlessly with ball.
I forgot to mention in my earlier post that in addition to the LWD G19 threaded barrel that I have (which runs perfectly and I have had no problems with whatsoever), I ALSO have the 9mm conversion barrel for my G22. And the LWD 9mm conversion barrel DOES occasionally have some problems... namely failing to extract spent casings. In fact, the ONLY time my G22 has EVER jammed or had remotely any issues at all was when I was running the 9mm conversion barrel in it.
But conversion barrels are always meant for training purposes only (i.e. plinking and just having cheap fun at the range), and they're not meant to be used for anything other than just that, so I don't really hold it against LWD for the G22 9mm conversion barrel having the occasional problem on the range.

A little clarification here. Someone has basically said the I am settling for mediocrity by net getting a KKM barrel. I have not committed myself to anything as of this moment. I asked for opinions and experience with G19 threaded barrels as I have never had a suppressor mounted on a pistol before and Glock does not make threaded barrels. My comment about the AWC barrel had to with it costing 3x more than an LWD barrel, but I have heard virtually nothing about them.
I have no problems dropping 300.00 on a barrel if that's what I need. But, I am hesitant to drop 300.00 on something without knowing more about it. Since I did not see threaded barrels on KKM's site, I asked if they are a special order item and the question was answered.

I have only 150rds of 9mm on a standard KKM SS barrel in the same G17. It is accurate, and the fit was perfect.
Is the suppressed G19 a "toy"? If so, the Lone Wolf will fit perfect, and most likely function perfectly. The KKM is nice, but I don't believe it's a "must have" for a suppressor host.

The KKM unit I have is a very nicely finished SS barrel. I suspect their threaded version will be top notch too.
It's hard to argue with the LWD barrel that I use though. Cost was good. Accuracy was decent. Function is good when I am not being "abusive".
Coin toss.
What made up my mind was the LWD for the G17 threaded came blackened from LWD. That would have been extra from the others.
That was it, my only deciding factor after I found out that all glock barrels were basically drop-in fits.
Well in that case, if you think that there might be even a SLIGHT possibility that you will keep the suppressor attached to you Glock and use it for home defense, than I would spend top dollar on the best barrel possible that you know without a shadow of a doubt will NOT let you down if and when (god forbid) some asshole breaks into you house during the middle of the night and you absolutely need your Glock to function perfectly and violently to dispatch the target/threat.
You can't put a price on the lives of yourself and your family, that's for damn sure bro!
