    With a tighter barrel is reliability going to suffer?

    That would make me cry a little

    Yes (assuming that you fit the barrel so that it did not move freely). I do not fit them that tight.

    I hope its a hit for the M&P shooters that want more precision. But our 8 reliable Gen 4's will all do better than 3-4".

    1.5" at 25 yds from this Gen 4 G17. FDE Gen 3 G17 just did 2" with 124 grain GDs. But it would still cost $159 to drop in a Wilson barrel (see TigerSwan write ups) or much much more for a fitted BarSto.

    This $200 package incl fitting is a terrific value.

    The gen4 are definitely more accurate. My gen4 19 is a tack driver. Most accurate glock I have ever owned.

    Put on some sights, polish up the trigger or dop in a connector and it is good to go. Still the best value out there.

    Grant, is this different than the Barsto/Apex barrel that was aimed at the early unlocking issues?

    Will you be offering threaded versions? Melonited?

    Thanks

    For the $$, they are a good gun right out of the box and worth it. Add a few $ more, and they are a GREAT gun for the $$$ and worth it.

    Yes, different as the barrel is made by Storm Lake.

    We might have them Melonited (as the facility that does S&W's barrels is right up the road from us.)

    We will offer a threaded version as well.
