What does our cast know about Lone Wolf barrels? I want to know the good, bad, and the ugly about Lone Wolf barrels Why do I ask? I ordered a Lone Wolf 357 Sig conversion barrel for my Glock 23. I am interested in seeing how it compares to the the off brand 357 Sig conversion barrel I have for my G27. The cost of the Lone Wolf barrel was $89.95 vs about $180 for a Bar-Sto barrel. Regards, Richard :D

I've plowed through 4 Lone Wolf Barrels so far, one was a lone wolf in 357 sig for my G27.
First thing to note is that the aren't exactly drop in because they have extra metal on the step in front of the chamber so you can take some off if it shoots high.. It kind of helps to have adjustable sights so you can do less work on the barrel to make it shoot where your sights are pointing.
Other than that.. no problem.. They look kind of nice in the gun.

Patrick: The barrel you have was manufactured for LWD by Storm Lake. This barrel is no longer available from LWD, is not fully supported and yes it did have some "drop in" problems. The new line of LWD barrels are drop in, fully supported and cheaper ($89.95) than the previous advertised models.

Do the Lone Wolf threaded barrels come with thread protectors?

I've got 3 LWD barrels, a 40S&W for my G27 (cuz I shoot a lot of homeloads), and 40S&W and a 357 Sig barrels for my G35. They all shoot a bit better than the OEM barrels and the machining looks really sharp and geometrically..........uh......loss for words....
.........okay...geometrically arousing, yeah, that's it. The 5" 357 Sig barrel smokes!!! I'm very pleased with them and want to get a 357 Sgig barrel for my G27 soon. Oh yeah, and there's are waaaay more chamber support too. For the price, ya' can't really go wrong.
The LWD threaded barrels do not include thread protectors however we do have them available in 1/2 x 28 for $10. We will have the other thread pitches available soon, 9/16 x 24 and .578 x 28

JR,
Is there any way of getting your Glock threaded barrels and thread protectors with a black finish to match the color of the pistol? The stainless steel really stands out too much on a black pistol IMHO.

My Lone Wolf threaded 9mm conversion for G23 dropped right in and functions flawlessly. We just had a Colorado silencer meet today without a single failure, and I'm at over 500 rounds in 2 weeks now with one FTE in the first 20 shots.

G23 and G27 conversion 9mm LWD barrels and a G17 comp
first note esp the 17 hits high compared to OEM
all these barrels transfer heat to shooter much more than OEM, though no burns yet. heat very noticeable in the holster.
spits rounds directly to my 12 o'clock top of hat occassionally.
but, most of all is extreme enjoyment shooting with all of them.
no mods made - just dropped in.
the LWD logo , JR - very nice looking compared to newer cheaper version.

I like the logo but I think the word "distributors" cheapens the look. When I see the word distributors I think of a warehouse full of people running around on fork lifts loading and unloading trucks with stuff manufactured by an out side vendor waiting to be shipped to a store. I would be more impressed if I could look at a part and get the impression that some one took the time to build that part in house and carefully packaged it just for me when I ordered it.

hey Boze -
I have had several dealings with LWD over the past 2 years and have "felt" (I'm such a feeling kinda guy) like they actually packaged it pretty personal and they always have dealt with my novice questions on products or parts per email as if I emailed my O'Reilly auto parts guy and he finds it right away and makes me "feel" good all over.
nah - no kidding - they provide an excellent service for a very fair price.
gd
I consider the LWD barrel to be equal to the Bar-Sto and KKM at half the cost. The new barrels are drop in.

Sounds like you took my post the wrong way. All I meant was that the word "DISTIBUTORS" on such a fine looking barrel cheapens the appearance to me. The picture of the wolf and the words "LONE WOLF" looks pretty cool.

I have a 3 year old 9mm barrel, extended and threaded (wrong I might add) for my G32.
I notice now that I practice outdoors much more that it shoots very high. Help me with this issue please!
It's not that there is something wrong with the threading, it's just the wrong size- it's 1/2x32 or 24tpi when my suppressor for the 92FS is 1/2x28tpi.
Is there a way to upgrade or trade in this barrel? It's got less than 500 rounds through it.

Boze: The barrel referred to in this thread is the old style. That barrel and engraving are no longer available from LWD. Our new line of barrels are superior to any previously offered and feature a different wolf on the hood.
SurveyMan; Is the barrel you are referring to a LWD barrel? Sounds like it works ok it just has the wrong threads for your application. I am sure you could move it here on GT or eBay.

JR, any way to get a LW barrel for a Glcok 30? Please :)
LittleLebowski: Yes we have some un-marked barrels that are tattooed on the underside of the barrel. If your looking for one I recommend you talk with Dan at ext 100
Skpotamus: Sorry, no plans for a G30 barrel at this time.
A good friend of mine (really!!:supergrin: ) just picked up a LW 9mm conversion for his 23 last week. He ordered it 9am the 21st, and it arived in Tn on Saturday the 23rd.....LWD HAS to have connections with the dang teamsters to get things moving that quickly. ;)
All Ive got to say on the matter is my friend is thoroughly impressed,as am I. Granted, hes only put 400 rounds through it so far....but those were 400 flawless rounds mind you..POI was right on.
I guess I pushed my friend in LWD's direction from the feedback Ive read here on GT, now Ive seen 1st hand what you get when you order from them......Im sold.

If it's what I'm thinking, I like it. I'm interested in getting one for my G34. How's the quality compare to a KKM?
Hey RC,
Send em an email and request a pic. They sent me one - Wolf's head with calibur underneath... Can't find the one they sent me...
I run both a KKM 9mm conversion, and a Lone Wolf 9mm conversion in my G35. I can't tell the difference ... really.
and the Lone Wolf is half the price...
I guess I will have to do some 10 round groups to see if there is any discernable difference.
I am pretty happy with mine. Need to test the .357sig this weekend...(grin)

Sorry for the hijack:
Hey JR, I have another 9mm conversion barrel (g23/32) on backorder, can I get one of the blued ones? When will they be available?
All our threaded barrels are available in stainless or black.
All black barrels are blind marked the way the pic of the black barrel is in the above photo. * You can custom order a stainless barrel blind marked if you want.
Standard and ported barrels can be ordered in black but you will have to wait for the next "black run" Usually black runs are every other week.
We are temporally out of stock of the G23 9mm conversion barrels stock length and expect the new shipment to arrive within 3 to 4 weeks. G23 9 ported & threaded are in stock & ready to go.

, Wolf design on the hood for my G22c in black. Threads need to fit a S&J Custom comp and the comp needs to be near flush with the slide. It's $100 bucks for Magna Port to have my KKM barrel ported, so if I can buy a Wolf barrel with these features, I might as well get a Wolf. Can it be done JR? :cheers:
Has anyone measured what kind of accuracy gains did you get with your after market barrel as compared to your stock, for a Glock 34?
I've see dramatic improvement in other Barrel/gun projects (mostly 1911, and barreta) of 2-3.25" gains, at 25 yard (different ammo), so I wondering the impact on the glock 34 and a LWD/KKM. I've measured the G34 (Ransom Rest) with a variety of ammo and averaging 2.75"-3.50" (best group with Hornady TAP 115 gr.)3 shot groups at 25 yards.
thanks.
RCKnight: Sorry, I never heard of an S&J comp. We will have our own comp line by Spring. It will fit the same barrel we offer now.
Nerves: Accuracy improvements will differ with each gun. I would love to boast that our barrels will cut your shot size down to 1". Sometimes that actually happens but accuracy has more to do with the skill of the shooter, ammunition and barrel compatibility compared to a simple barrel switch. All we promise is our barrels will deliver accuracy at least as good as you currently get from your stock barrel. Our customers post of improvements and we say you can too however we simply can not guarantee it.

I severed the eyelash off a flea at 1000 yards with my new LW barrel. Unfortunately, I have no witnesses to the event. Nevertheless, I have sold the story to the National Enquirer. While you are waiting in line to pay for your groceries, read all about it.
Hey! These are great barrels for the money, they perform just as well as JR says. Now leave him alone so he can get these new LW 3.5 connectors out the door, finally! It took less time for Columbus to sail to the New World.
So the only reason to buy/invest on these barrel (for Glocks) is to replace for wear? If the shoot the same or as good, what other reason other than wear, would you wnat to invest in a differnt non-oem barrel?
My apologies for the question, I am an old 1911 guy...

Well, I just got mine this afternoon to convert my G35 to 9mm. Some also use after market barrels to shoot lead. If you are looking to make a benchrest shooter out of a Glock, good luck. I haven't shot it yet, but it certainly passes the look test and locks up tight. The stock barrel is accurate enough for any application that the Glock was designed for. I almost bought the KKM, but went with LWD after talking with Dan at LWD.
I'll let you know in a couple of days how it goes.
GoodGlokin,
Rik

Does Lone Wolf make a ported barrel that's NOT extended or extended ports for a G34? I'm looking for a ported stock barrel design like the G24c barrel for my G34. I want to play. :)
I buy lone wolf products, they back their stuff up, no BS if youare not happy they are not happy, most of all though is JR takes the time to read glock talk and take action on what he reads, they know the product,if you email them with a question, they answer it right away, and these barrels really are great.....they could charge a lot more and be justified, thats why they have my busisness....

JR.. can you make it a little earlier. I need to convert my G22 to 9mm open gun. Your conversion barrel threading does not fit the SJC comps and re-threading cost extra and that's where KKM works. I've seen an increase on open glock users and they are all using KKM's. If you can offer variety of thread pitch on your barrel, that would do for now. Sports shooters who uses comps versus the tactical shooters who uses suppressors were greater. Get practical not tactical...

I just like the wolf :banana:
RCKnight: Yes internal porting for the 34/35 & 17L/24 will soon be available. We have a new EDM porting machine that will easily punch holes in any barrel or slide. We finally received our 5 and 6 inch barrels so we are having the electrodes made up for the machine now.
Asintaderoche: Our main purpose for the threaded barrels was to jump into the suppressor market. We will soon be introducing compensators, fake supressors and flash hiders to fit these threads for the race crowd.

I had wondered why I couldn't find a G23-9mm stock length LW barrel on your website. I own both 23 and 27. I really don't have a need for a ported or threaded barrel, so I'll wait for the stock length.
A Glock 23 OEM barrel will work in a 27. I therefore assume that your G23-9mm conversion barrels should function in a 27 as an extended barrel. Do I have this right?
Thanks,
BF
BustedFlush: Unfortunately our G23 9mm stock length barrels are back ordered 3 to 4 weeks. We removed it from the web site so our customers dont try to order it. We do have the ported & threaded models in stock and ready to go.
Yes a G23 40 S&W (4.02 inches) barrel will drop right into a G32 357 Sig (4.04 inches) pistol or G27 40 S&W (3.46 inches) pistol.
A G19 9mm (4.02 inches) barrel will drop right into a G26 9mm (3.46 inches) pistol.

Sounds like the stock length G23 9mm is just what I want - I'll happily wait. Heck, I have a G19 already, but I like the idea of having a second "19" when I take a new shooter to the range. Not to mention, I prefer the grip of my 2nd generation 23 to my 3rd gen. 19.
Thanks for the prompt response.
BF :cool:
JR,
I don't see any Lone Wolf G20 barrels on your website but I could have sworn that I read a post of yours that said you had some. Possibly caliber conversions?

Lone Wolf G20 barrels are available in stock length 4.60 inch (item
LWD-2010N).
They are also available in extended 2 port and 6". Your choice at $89.95. These barrels are fully supported.

We expect the back ordered barrels to arrive in January. My guess would be just in time for SHOT Show on the 11th

That's good timing. With Christmas, I probably wouldn't be able to afford one til then anyway. How did you do on the Elk hunt?
We had 4 cow tags and filled 2. Will most likely try to get back there the last weekend of the year.
I also had the opportunity to test out one of my new Taurus 45/410 pistols on a pack rat in our cabin. I do not know what this animals real name is but was told by an "old timer" it’s a pack rat. I had never seen one before, it weighed in at 4 to 5 lbs. I can tell you for sure it is not an American or European rat. Anyhow, it was scurrying around the cabin about 2:30 AM and woke a couple of us up. One of the guys sleeping in the loft got a light on it. It scurried up the chimney and ran across another guys bed waking him up. He jumped on the guy with the light and they both were doing the high step trying not to get bit. I climbed up the ladder to the loft and it ran back down alongside the chimney. I was hanging on the ladder with one hand and had to lean out as far as possible. I was about 12 feet away. I lined up a clean shot (there was 7 of us in the cabin). Just before I shot I announced to everyone "this is going to be loud". It was! The shot pattern from the 410 pistol was about 2 inch in diameter at that range and it took most of his head right off. Blew a nice hole out the wall too but we were able to patch 'er up quick enough. Believe it or not……one of the guys slept through the whole thing.
Aint nothing like running around in your underwear trying to get a clean shot off. I always wondered how I would fair when "things go bump in the night". We got a few pics of it, I will try to get them ASAP.

These barrels look identical in everyway to the old "Federal arms" barrels. They were manufactured in China. These are the same, arent they?
Did you have a "Professional Guide" backing you up when the rat charged? I think someone with at a .458 double would have been the bare minimum. Maybe a couple of guys with 12 ga. shotguns loaded to the gills with 00 buck. Those things can be vicious.
I shudder to think what would have happened if you had missed. This could have been you.
http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/n_polar_bear_attack4.htm
10mm4ever: We still have a few Federal Arms barrels in inventory. Their appearance is nothing like our current barrel line. You can not compare the construction benefits either. Lone Wolf barrels have an overall diamond finish, improved feed ramp, maximum support chambers and target crowns. Federal barrels lack all of these.
The only thing comparable is the price $89.95! We followed Federals lead and set up a similar pricing structure. This translates into HUGE savings to the end user. Dollar to dollar direct comparisons prove Lone Wolf barrels are the best your money can buy.
Joe D: Checked out your link, seen it before. That poor SOB got a butt kicking but he hung in there for the long haul! Fight or die, it is amazing to see what the human body can accomplish (even with pieces missing). I have personally met a couple bear attack victims. The bear may have died but the victims had pieces missing that will never grow back. (its just flat ugly and caused me down right sympathetic internal pain). I also had the privilege to run with Wayne Nordstrom the official BC (Canadian Fish Cop) responsible for collecting bear/human, wolf/human, what ever eats you/human confrontation evidence. I rummaged through a few dozen of these photo documented cases and can tell you my philosophy is simple: If it doesn't run from me….kill it and figure out everything else later. If it does run from me….let it get some distance THEN kill it and figure out everything else later.
My apology to anybody out there who picked up this thread to read about information regarding our Lone Wolf barrels. I did not mean to hijack its direction. Back to the subject: Our barrels are good because we say so. Our customers say so too and we believe them.
:banana: I was very impressed with LW and JR. I sent an inquiry on the G23-9mm barrel, stock length & black----instead of an e-mail, I got a phone call! Great customer service, and I'll be doing more with them in the future! Can't wait for the barrel to show up!:wavey:

JR, here's my story....I would like to convert my G27 (latest generation, purchased new only a few months back) to .357 Sig. What are my Lone Wolf barrel options? Do you offer a factory length conversion barrel? A ported barrel? And just so I can hear for the 90th time, my G27 mags will work with .357 Sig, correct? And what advantages does the LW barrel provide over sticking a Glock OEM G33 barrel in a G27? Thanks.
PS: Whether I get the LW ported barrel that extends an inch out or the factory length LW conversion barrel, it will not affect POI correct in the case of the G27? I do not want to have to change sights. I have been told that in the case of the G23, converting it to .357 mag, using G23 sights, you will experience a 3 inch drop in POI at 25 yards. Not so with the shorter G27.

I have 2 LW Threaded barrels... G17 and G26, both are drop in and both have been flawless in operation...
10MM where did you come up with that dribble? They do not look identical. The feed ramp is no where near the same. You obviously have never looked at either.

I have had a G22 9mm barrel from LWD for over a year now. Ran about 500 rounds through it with no problems. Their service and quality are top notch. I have zero complaints, and for the price you can't beat it. JR is the man and he stands behind his products 110%.

Just returned from SHOT Show in Orlando FL. There is going to be a slight delivery delay because we are changing our chambers from NATO to SAMMI. This change will accommodate the longer bullet profiles that some of out customers are currently using. Give it another week to 2 weeks (includes shipping to us).

JR, now that you're back from your "vacation," how about LW barrels for the Springfield XD? A lot of us here own both Glocks and XDs and there are few moderate-priced options for an after-market XD barrel. And you know how much I like to be a tester! Thanks.
On the LWD threaded to make sure- are they threaded concentric and quality for suppressor use? If I get one and it turns out to be out of spec can I return it?
Kraigster414: Yep we are working on the XD now. I spent quite a bit of time with the Springfield guys and plan to offer 4" & 5" barrels first.
Chakup: Our barrels are threaded to fit Gemtech supressors. If your not buying a Gemtech it would be in your best interest to discuss this with your manufacture. They will be able to tell you about the fit either way.
When are we going to see a LW barrel for the 10mm Glock 20 standard length.
i have 2 LW barrels that came with the last two glocks i have,i have owned several EXPENSIVE aftermarket bbls, and i must say the quality of the lone wolf bbls, is better then the EXPENSIVE ONES I HAVE..I DONT THINK YOU CAN GO WRONG WITH THIS PRODUCT REGARDLESS OF PRICE...JUST MY 2C...NOT TO MENTION THEY BACK THEIR PRODUCT..

I got one a month or 2 ago. Fine barrel. Are they out?
JR, love your hunting pictures, though I didn't need to see the kill shot. Not that I object to killing furry critters, but I do object to veiwing pictures of naked men! Looks like near where I hunt wapiti, too. And probably is. So, what's with the sniping rifle on an elk hunt? Are you being corrupted by Shawn Carlock and his long range shooting courses? LOL!
Yep, that's a pack rat. Nasty little buggers. I had one in my house once when I lived in Montana. I used a trap, not a gun. It was easier on the house that way!
JR, I'd love to see you make a Corbon 400 barrel for my G30 in a 6". Then I can sell of my heavy azz Ruger Blackhawk for my deep woods hikes in critter country.
Haze10: We have G20 barrels in stock & ready to go. Stock length, extended 2 port and 6", $89.95 your choice.
Jobob: The guy that took that pic cleaned it up. It originally showed too much of me! I agree its hard to look at but considering the situation and time in the morning & such……
Yes I have been hanging around Shawn's place a little too much. Will be attending his long range classes this spring. He built me a 7mm Ultra and responsible for lighting a fire under me to bring in the BIG 'OL 50's.
M1A65: I don’t see the 6" G30 in the near future. Sorry. You might try Kevin at KKM (775-246-5444) www.kkmprecision.com

Okay, JR, I just ordered my G23 9mm conversion barrel.
After all the feedback here and a reccomendation by Gemtech, order placed.
well just got an email that the barrel's are backordered. kinda sad that the sight doesn't reflect that, but since some reports were about "poor customer service" and no notice of a backorder I'm happy.
Chakup: Yep the LWD web site currently lacks the ability to notify our customers of actual stock on hand but I could hardly equate that to "poor customer service". I have to question what you would call poor customer service. I see that your first post timed in at 9:33 and the next post timed in at 14:38. Lets figure that at 5 hours later. I am willing to bet the actual time stamp on your order and the actual time stamp on the notice from LWD are less than that.
Why would you call that poor service? Maybe I am missunderstanding your post?
JR- you misread my post. I've seen some posts on here of people complaining about poor service from LWD. I was saying props to you guys for the quick notification of the backorder. Sorry if my post didn't read that way. :thumbsup:
Chakup: Yep my misunderstanding. That’s why I asked. You have me wondering how fast your back order notice really was? I try to fix everything that's broke but there are limitations to what can be fixed and what must be tolerated (for awhile). We really do the best we can to make sure things go as smoothly as possible.
FYI: The barrels will land here next Wednesday, should start shipping Friday.
BTW: Our new web site is a killer performer.......but its not ready to launch yet. It gives you the option to back order, ship ahead and check progress on-line. Lots more cool things to boot! We will hopefully have it rolling in the next couple weeks.
I got my order confirmation email at 9:38am and had the backorder email at 2:28pm. Good service by me.
As long as the 2 thread protectors don't go on backorder in the next week I'm good :laughabove:
Can't wait until the new sight is up.
1 The thread protectors are in stock and ready to go.
2 The BO barrels will arrive Wednesday, go through inspection and start shipping Thursday morning.
3 I double checked with our new IT guys on the web site and found they expect a launch within the next 2 weeks.
I have already enjoyed 2 double "dirty martinis" and need to retire for the weekend! I should know better than "to type while drinking". Hope you have a great weekend!
I wish the LW were not so good at dropping in. They cannot be as accurate as the KKM or Jarvis that require a little adjustments to fit, as they fit tighter.
Skeezer: There are a lot of shooters that will argue your point regarding a fitted barrel being more accurate. I too disagree. A drop in is all you need for a Glock. The LWD barrels are built around the 3rd gen guns and absolutely perform as good or better than the factory barrels.
Both KKM and Jarvis have been with LWD from the beginning (10+ years). Both these manufactures command a leading reputation in this industry. You offer us a great honor when you mention our barrels in the same breath as these two. If there was a back seat in that car, I would be honored to ride in it.

I would have to give a +1, I own a KKM and a LW. My next barrel will be a LW because when you look at Price as a function of quality, LW wins hands down.

I figured there would be a big demand for a G30 barrel. Disappointing.
Bronson7
Jr
Any plans to make a 9X25 dillion for a G20. I know of at least 10 people who would buy on. How many guaranteed order would be required for your company to retool and manufacture some of these barrels.
Skeeter: Yes we should have a Sig 226 by Summer
Q-01: Originally we had no plans to produce a G30 barrel however that has changed. We have received enough requests to warrant a sample 100 barrel order. Should be available by Summer.
Skeezer: I have discussed the 9x25 project with Mike at Double Tap Ammunition. I did not want to step into the barrel without ammo being readily available. Mike never did get back with me so this project dropped off the radar.
If I could somehow round up 100 barrel buyers at one time, would that make manufacture of this barrel feasible.
30 would be enough to peak my interest. More is always mo-gooder! What are you thinking, stock length, extended 2 port, six inch?
If you feel this is really a possibility please call me direct at 208-437-0612 ext 102. I am in the office M-F, 8 to 4 PST.

I wouldn't have pestered him, except that I got an email saying there was a new post in this thread, so I figured what the heck.
We received 1200 barrels this afternoon. We have already chamber checked the G17's and laser engraved them.
The remainder of ALL the back ordered barrels will pass through inspection and engraving by this weekend. They will ship as they make it through the hoops.
JR: I am wanting to convert my G27 to G33. Is the stock length G33 barrell all I need? I have heard the g27 mags feed .357 fine, but not the other way around (.357 mags feeding .40) Is this barrel in stock?
Thanks
Yes if you want to convert your G27 40 S&W you would install a G33 barrel. The G33 barrels are in stock and ready to go.
Yes you can reliably use a G27 magazine to feed 357 ammunition however we recommend you pick up the correct magazine because this will help you avoid any confusion as to what round is in what mag. We wouldn’t want you accidentally firing the 357 Sig ammo out of your 40 S&W barrel.
$20 for a mag is pretty cheap insurance.

I ordered my ported G17 barrel on Saturday. I'm looking forward to getting it. So far I have had nothing but good response and communication out of Lone Wolf Dist.
I had the backorder information first thing Monday morning. When I called them I was told they should hit the shop on Wednesday and ship by Friday. That's good enough service for me.
Keep up the good work JR.

i may be daft...cause "I" didn't see any, but...
JR - does Lone Wolf make a threaded .578x28" black barrel for a Glock 21 .45 Auto...
What is the avail and cost?
JR- do you know if an email will go out when back orders ship? Just curious, and impatient, and trying to set up some time to meet with a local manufacturer to try out his 9mm can.
Mephisto: As a matter of fact we do have a LWD Barrel M/21 45 ACP Threaded .578 x 28 Black. Your looking for item number LWD-2145THBLK. They are in stock & ready to go, sell at $104.95
Chakup: Yep, an email is sent when your back order rolls out if it goes UPS or FedEx. If it ships postal the email is not automatically sent. Maybe if you email me your personal info I could respond with a ship date?
JR- sent you an email through here. Just want to say thanks for your help and fast replies to questions.

Some people have reported that it worked just fine as is, while others have said they had to change the ejector and/or extractor. You won't know how your individual gun will do til you try it.

My G-17 barrel came in the mail today. It was ordered for me as a Christmas gift. I am also a little worried about it being designed for the generation 3's. Mine is a gen. 2. It seemed to fit the slide as well as the factory barrel. Hopefully it will feed and function well. I'll get to try it out Friday.
Sonny_G17: Yes we can get you a black G17 barrel that is blind marked. There is a $25 up-charge for the service. Call me and I will arrange it.
10mm4ever: Sorry bro, no plans. KKM already offers one. We have them in stock and ready to go should you decide to get it.
Mprimo: NO you can not drop a 17L barrel in your G24. The barrel hood is smaller, the barrel OD is smaller, it simply does not work. Yes we do have a G24 9mm conversion barrel available. It is a drop in unit that is specially made to do exactly what your asking. Call me and I will hook you up.
Halojumper: I think these guys have you confused? There is a big difference between the standard 9mm barrels and our "9mm conversion barrels". A standard 9mm barrel does not work in a 40 S&W or 357 Sig gun. Our 9mm conversion barrels do not require any other part modifications, they run just fine right out of the box. You will see this is true as soon as you take yours out and run it. BTW: Thanks for the order!
Bigtinva: Some early 2nd gen guns have larger barrel hoods. Our barrels are designed around 3rd gen guns and work quite well in the majority of 2nd gen guns. I have not had a 2nd gen failure to date but expect one to come up some time. Pretty good odds if you ask me. All our threaded barrels are available in black. You can special order any barrel in black, just call in the order.
Codecowboy/HenrySCTN: Holy cow! This is how rumors get started. If the barrel drops in and fits ok it will run just fine. Trust me. If the barrel was sloppy and did not fit this would be a good sign that you possess a early 2nd gen gun. The barrel would still run in the gun but it simply would not group worth a dang. If this happens to you (or anyone else) simply return the barrel for a refund.
JR- I just ordered a G26 threaded black and thread protecter today. Any plans to add some toys to stick on this bbl? (flash hider, compensator, super cheap fake supressor? don't laugh) do you suggest just getting AR flash hider for instance and drilling her out a bit?
Also, any plans to show some love to the G36 slimline? No little figner extensions like for the G26? No barrels? (any plans?)

JR, Thanks for the reply. When you say that the barrel hood is larger in some early models, do you mean the width of the hood, length of the hood...both??? Are there any dimensions available that I can use to measure my barrel hood to confirm that one of your barrels will work in my 2nd gen G17 before ordering? Thanks for any info.

Taking it to the range tomorrow to try it out.

Carver: Yep, working on the fake suppressor now. I have proto types on my desk. Also looking at AR/AK style flash supressors and comps. No plans for the 36, sorry.
Bigtinva: I don’t have the measurements. I know there is a difference because Jarvis used to run into the problem and I was warned about it. We are already beyond the 2,500 mark and no failure to fit yet so I really cant be too concerned.
Codecowboy: If you ever have a problem we will fix it or refund your money. That goes for any product we offer, anyone who purchases from us.
10mm4ever: KKM is the only game in town for that barrel.
Viffer1: our current production 9mm conversion barrels are the best we have ever offered. I am sure you will love it.
JR,
Thanks for the earlier reply. I will be calling to order a 9mm G24 barrel very soon. You are a saint for thoroughly answering everyone's questions in great detail.

I want to thank the rest of you guys for all your support.
My 9mm conversion barrel is on the way! I ordered it back in October and at the time I gave them my MasterCard #. However my MasterCard expired at the end of October and my new cards were issues AFTER I placed my order with LW. I received and email this afternoon that my card was expired and after a quick phone call everything was straightened out and my barrel is on the way.

My previous post about being worried about the fit of your barrel to my gen 2 G-17 was for naught. The new barrel fit great and the accuracy and function were perfect. I wanted this barrel so that I could save some money by shooting some lead bullets, but since I haven't reloaded any yet I decided to try it with Winchester 115 gr "white box". I was hoping for somewhere around a 3" group at 25 yards. Imagine my surprise with four out of five holes touching, we'll call the other "flier" the nut behind the triggers fault. Thanks for a great product at a value price. R+

JR, do you have a 6 inch, G21 barrel? It's listed in the catalog I received with my last order(LWD-21456, POR). I'm setting this G21 up for hunting and I'm more tempted to just go with hotter .45acp or even .45 Super, as opposed to a 10mm conversion. If you have one, I'll take it, as opposed to getting a Stormlake through TG. Thanks

Excellent fit, finish and overall quality. This thing looks like it should have no problems handling the .45 Super. Well done JR.
I've got a chance to pick up a second-hand Lone Wolf G34 barrel and I was giving it some serious thought. I shoot jacketed exclusively so the ability to shoot lead unfortunately is not much benefit for me. Do you think the improved accuracy potential of the barrel enough of a reason? Thanks in advance!

JR, I got a Barsto for my G23 but am dissappointed with all the failure to chamber issues I am having. A tighter chamber helps save the brass. A fully supported barrel means the ramp angle must be greater. Can you tell us the technical differences between your LW barrel and say the Barsto of KKM, and why yours is not as fussy about the ammo. Is your chamber slightly larger than the Barsto/KKM and do you relieve some support at the 6 o'clock position to improve feeding? I missed the answer about a barrel without the engraving logo, is that also possible. Guess I am a bit old fashioned.

Does lonewolf or any other glock barrel manufacturer sell a threaded .357sig barrel for the glock 23/32 ?
How can the wolf logo be removed? Is it ingraved into the mettal or can it be polished off?

How can the wolf logo be removed? Is it ingraved into the mettal or can it be polished off? It's engraved deep enough that polishing it out would be futile. I think if it really bothers you, you'd have to get one manufactured without the logo.
Just ordered my Lone Wolf barrel yesterday for the G22. I hope it works as well for me as it seems to have for others.

Hey guys the Lone Wolf barrel came today for the G22. Got a chance to run fifty through it.
At fifteen yards it was no problem putting them in the nine spot.
I am very impressed to say the least, thanks for all the info on these barrels, I believe they are worth every penny. Now on to learning how to reload. I'm a happy boy.

looking at a couple of conversion barrels (9mm for both a G22 and G27)...but have a couple LW specific questions, and some generic barrel questions:
I don't own either gun, yet...but have been researching and shopping around for a couple weeks...
1. Gun shop today said putting in some type of aftermarket conversion barrel voids the Glock warranty...any truth to that?
2. what's the point of extended ported barrels? pros/cons? i.e. still fit in holsters? chance of damaging?
3. what's the point of threaded barrels? is it just for the suppressors/fake suppressors/compensators/flash hiders I've seen discussed in this thread? (and it seems you can buy a screw-in plug for them, I guess to use when stored?)
4. LW price the same on barrels, whether stock/ported/threaded, and no matter the color/logo/no logo?
Sorry for the beginner questions...just haven't found all the answers, yet...
Thanks.
Greg
So any hope of LWD making a threaded barrel for the G34??
Yes any Lone wolf barrel can be ordered blacked and blind marked. There is a $25 up charge for blacked barrels.
No news on G20 long slides. We have had 3 shops take on the project only to abandon it later. Still looking.
We will have G30 barrels in hand hopefully by the end of the month. Also have G20 40 S&W, 357 Sig and 9x25.
BigWaylon: Glock Inc will void your warrantee if you talk to us. Anything they void we pick up on because we know it bothers them. Don’t worry about it.
Everybody has different likes/wants. The extended 2 port barrels are very popular because they help reduce muzzle climb and look good too.
The threaded barrels are intended for use with Gemtech supressors. We built them to their specifications. We are now in the process of building accessories for them too. Screw on compensators, fake supressors, flash hiders.
Lone Wolf barrels are available in stock length, extended 2 port and threaded. Your choice at $89.95. We also offer 4 port +$25 and 6 port + $30 for the G17L,24,34,35. You can have any barrel blacked for $25. You can have any barrel blind marked for $5.
Chakup: I get a few requests for a G34 threaded barrel however not enough to have me build 25 pieces. We recommend you pick up a 17L barrel and have it threaded locally.
that was the next step- but then paying the $$ to cut thread just adds on. What is minimium order for a run?
I dont know how I missed this thread, well actually I do, I spend most of my time on GT in the BR and IN HT forum.
Anyway, I am very pleased with the LWD threaded barrel on my G17, I bought it several months ago for use with my SWR Trident9 suppressor. Me and JR exchanged some e-mails and a couple of phone calls, his CS skills should be the benchmark in the firearms industry.
For your enjoyment: G17 w/Trident9

when the time comes, I'll just give you a call and discuss some of the options, rather than screwing something up online...:supergrin:
on another note...do some people buy LW barrels in the same caliber to give them the ability to shoot lead rounds? as in replace a perfectly fine stock barrel just for this reason (or maybe another reason?)

JR,I have a question for you. I bought a 9mm conversion barrel for my G23 for the specific purpose of shooting reloads and I suspect that is largely the reason many people here do it. Since Then I have bought one for my 27 and was planning on getting one for my 35 at some point (the gun hasn't even arrived yet!). When I was looking at the description at your site, it specifically says that using reloads voids your warranty. What is up with that? Is that just lawyerese to CYA? I was under the impression that you were in favor of reloads in your barrels. If not, why do you emphasize how supported the chambers are?

That suppressor is scary long - you should get an EVO-9 for the glock and move the Trident to a subgun without the LID. I went with the EVO-9 for my G19 and love it.

It depends. So far I have gotten by with just the barrel and magazine. Some people have reported that they had the change the extractor (and spring loaded bearing) and ejector. I have acquired the parts in case that becomes necessary. Try out the barrel first then get the other stuff if you need them.

I ordered an unmarked barrel today for my G19 because I'm not into "cutesy" engraving either. I thought it was a little odd that the "unblemished" barrel was $5 more than the barrel that took less time to make. Maybe that's their way of getting even for not getting the free advertising.
I ordered a couple of items from them the other day. One was out of stock and backordered. The saleman called me to tell me about the BO and when I asked about shipping I was told I would have to also pay shipping for that item also. I kinda complained about it and he said he couldn't do anything about that, but if I asked or him the next time I ordered he would make me some kind of special deal on something or other. I don't even remember what it was and I don't remember who the guy was, so I just wrote it off. It was a connector that I wanted so I went along with it. Vendors that I deal with for my business don't do that on backorders. I'm not very happy about it..
Guess I'll stick with Brownells..
Chakup: I would consider G34 threaded barrels if we could move 50 a year or about 1 a week.
Biggl35: Thanks for the complement! You made me blush…….
Bigwaylon: There are many reasons to purchase our barrels. The added chamber support makes them safer, stainless provides a dual tone look, ability to shoot any ammunition. Many of our barrel customers actual report a reduction in group size.
Halojumper: The reloading disclaimer is CYA for us but relevant to every barrel manufacture alive today. If they don’t have it openly printed I would ask why? The disclaimer is because we do not have any control over your reloading practices we openly proclaim we will not be help responsible for your stupidly. Example: If you double charge the case, work up a go faster high pressure load, shoot oversized projectiles (you get the point) its your baby not ours. We 100% guarantee safety if they are used within SAMMI specifications.
Kimberguy2004: We still get the advertising in its simply on the bottom of the barrel. The $5 charge covers the extra time it takes to pull the barrel from inventory and make 2 more burns on the laser.
Our company policy is to ship all back ordered items free of charge. Please by all means provide the name of the salesperson who tried to screw you and I will hand you his head on a platter. Everybody here knows this policy and I don’t need that kind of person working for me.
JR- sent you a PM about the backorder thing.
and FWIW- buy a black barrel and there's no visible logo. At least there wasn't on mine.

Question goes to anybody that is not affiliated with LW:
How many of you have bought an LW barrel to replace your stock barrel (i.e. same caliber) even though there was nothing wrong with your stock barrel...if so, what was the reasoning? Anybody make an LW barrel your first purchase with each new Glock? (not sure if there's a decent market for brand new factory barrels)...
Thanks.

my factory barrel had <1k rounds through it. I bought one for use with a suppressor. I did alot of research and found time and again them be recomended. They are also a barrel gemtech recommends/sales.

I bought a LW barrel (stainless, 2 ports, in 9mm for a G17) for a couple of reasons.
1. I wanted to shoot reloads and lead. Its cheaper.
2. I wanted a tighter barrel than the stock Glock offers
3. It looks awesome.
So far I am beyond pleased. I'm toying with buying a G26 and a LWD barrel will be my first aftermarket purchase. Best bang for the buck in my opinion.
Acoustic: Yep, we will have G30 barrels available in stock length, extended 2 port, threaded and 107mm (Canadian)
Kimberguy2004: Yes the threaded barrels are available in stainless or black. You can also get any barrel we offer added to the black run for an additional $25

03-08-2007, 22:18
JR,
OK! When will it be ready? So that I can order it as soon as it becomes available. Or can I pre-order? Unless, it's going to be a year or something, in which case I'll order something else and wait for you to send out the news saying that it's on sale.
Kimberguy2004: You will find most businesses charge $25 for refinishing barrels. You are absolutely correct about the Guncoat, Duracoat, Ceracoat or others. If you plan to do more than one gun/barrel you may as well step up and purchase the sprayer and components and do it all yourself. Why do you think there are so many garage refinishers out there today?
Acoustic: I expect G30 barrels by the end of the month. When I get confirmation they will ship to me I will add them to inventory. We do not pre sell anything anymore, causes too many problems. I am not worried about selling these I have been beat to death for not including them in the first place. I may even bring in the G36 by Summers end.
acoustic
03-10-2007, 19:59
OK. I'll get in line for the G30 extended ported barrel.:sad:
I'm also going to check your web site everyday towards the end of the month. Now when do you consider to be towards end of the month? :supergrin:
JR
Is there no call for threaded .357 Sig barrels? Also can you tell me about your upcoming compensators for the 9mm? Problem I am having is that all the compensators I can find for a 9mm, are not 1/2-28 to fit all the threaded barrels made to fit a 9mm silencer.
acoustic: I am told the end of the month. I suspect it could be further out than that because I will be at the Tulsa show 4/1 and then NRA 4/12. if the barrels arrive 4/1 they will not be available until I return that following week because of the inspection/process time. If they arrive a week late it will put them out 2 more weeks because 1/2 my crew will be involved with NRA. Bottom line is be patient…..it will happen.
kengps: I am sure we will offer threaded barrels for all barrels once the compensators are proven and available. Right now we will only focus on suppressed threaded barrels
I am a bit disappointed with Lone Wolf's Customer Service. On their website they have a "Contact-Us-With-Questions" link. I was interested in buying 3 barrels for my G22, 23, and 27 and emailed them via their webpage requesting information on availibility, shipping costs, and prices nearly 2 weeks ago. I have not received any reply from them yet. Guess they either don't have the time to respond to consumer questions or they are selling enough barrels to ignore inquiries. I am glad to hear that others are getting good service from them.
Texagun: I personally respond to 100+ emails a day. If you did not receive an answer to your questions, don’t take it personal, take it as a clue there is a problem. Problems with our uplink, down load, satellite in general: like storms or clouds or heavy fog. Could also be on your end like spam control or your provider doing whatever it is they do. I receive several bounce notices from my responses every day. You have my word I do not duck emails.
Its probably too late now but a phone call would have cut to the chase immediately.

No unfortunately we will not be exploring that option. If there had been a greater success with the 45/10mm conversions we would naturally proceed in that direction. A 45 GAP/40 S&W would be a great conversion……just not practical at this time.

An exotic thread? Not really if you know that SIG factory threaded bbls come only in M13.5 X 1 LH. So my Evo 9, sitting at the dealer awaiting the BATFE would be great on my 226 and G17.
Take care.

You would order the M23 9mm conversion barrel. I just got one of the barrels to convert my G32 to 9mm. I ordered the black, threaded version so I can experiment with compensators and also run a silencer later on. Barrel looks really good. $115.00.
JR Can you tell me if you have any plans to offer a G32 barrel extended to +4.5"? (Basically an LWD-32357-P2 without the ports)
A 4.65" threaded barrel like the ones you have for the .40 (LWD-2340THBLK) would work also. I would like to experiment with compensators later on anyway.

Thanks for the info. I'm new the glock scene and learning as I go. I'm going to love the versatility of this gun.
They should add it under the G32 listing for those that don't know the .357 and .40 cal Glocks have interchangable barrels.

UNfortunantly the slide is being refinished and I can not even enjoy the beauty of it installed yet:burn: I can't wait to put it in and run some rounds through it. I do like the logo but I had mine placed on the bottom for the cleaner appearance. Thanks LWD for awesome customer service and lighting fast turn-around.
Could I get some feed back on the LWD 2 port barrels, please. I've read some negative stuff about them concerning the front sight getting crud on it from the gases from the ports. True or false? If true how bad is it? I have 6 stock lenght LWD barrels, thought I'd like to give the ported barrel a try in my G22 or 27. Thanks...

The two ports should be ok, since the ports are out in front of the sights. I had a 6 port (not LWD) that had 4 of the ports in the cut in the slide and gunked up the front sight pretty well.

Thanks y'all. I've been curious about them, just read that stuff. Now I need to decide which one to try first. I was thinking of doing one on a G22 or G27, but I have a G20C that fouls the slide like the dickens so may try one on it first. Thanks again. ;)

Try the 20 six inch and get the most outta the cartridge. Just got mine about a week ago, the fit and finish is impressive for the money, don't really see how it could be any better.
uz2busmc, Thanks for the input. However, I just placed an order for the 10mm ported LWD barrel. Reason is I want to try a ported LWD barrel, keep the 20C a ported gun, and not have to put up with the crud from the OEM barrel.
What kind of velocity are you getting out of your 6 incher? I'll run a few over the Chrony from the LWD 2 port as soon as I get it and see what I get and compare that to what you're getting.

Roger that USMC. Right now all I have on hand as far as factory ammo goes is some Corbon JHP's and Remington FMJ's. I'll run some of each of those over the Chrony and tell you what I get. Barrel should be here next week.

FYI, I asked Lone Wolf and you can get the barrels without their silly logo.
Yeah, I'd heard that. But don't you have to pay extra?

They didn't mention paying extra to me.
I think it's a $5.00 charge to have the logo on the bottom of the barrel. Don't know why it should cost extra?? I would think most people would want it out of sight.
I don't mind the logo, people I've shown one of my LWD barrels really liked it too. For 5 bucks extra, you don't get the logo? In that case you don't get what you pay for. Hmmm...
They're a bargain either way, IMHO.

Its because the barrel must be taken off the normal manufacturing line and have the info burned into the bottem.
Yup, I'd imagine you are right about that joe. I've also read they offer custom engraving for a fee?
My 'you don't get what you pay for' remark was my feeble attempt at humor. :animlol:

They offer a cool "pimp my barrel" option which is pretty neat.

I just happened onto this particular thread. It made for good reading and it is very informative, to say the least. Now, I have a few options, which I can think about. Thanks to everyone for contributing.

That's slang for fancy stuff. Go to their website and ck it out.

No unfortunately we will not be exploring that option. If there had been a greater success with the 45/10mm conversions we would naturally proceed in that direction. A 45 GAP/40 S&W would be a great conversion……just not practical at this time.
Hmm... Did they not sell well for KKM? Just curious, since I've been itching to do this for a while now. Next on my list, actually, now that I picked up a G-27 and have an M-1 Carbine on the way from CMP. Then the G-21/10mm project, then an AR-15 project, then the M-1A... {sigh} I need a job that pays better! :embarassed:

JR...
Please check your PM..
Hi Jr, Do you offer a Corbon 400 conversion barrel for a G30? thanks Frank
Sorry about the delay in answering. I have been on the road to the Tulsa gun show, NRA and a week on the WA coast catching oysters & clams. I am a computer retard who lacks the ability to do much of anything electronically while on the road. I am working to fix that problem, please be patient.
Anyplainjoe: The XD barrels have not hit the drawing room yet but plans are being made for their production late this Summer.
F.2: I am working with a local gunsmith that may fire up a custom threading operation. Please check back with me the end of May
Pilotimb: A G32 9mm conversion barrel is a G23 9mm conversion barrel. Item number LWD-239**
Kengps: If the custom threading takes off yes we will start offering all barrels that are 1 to 1.5 longer than stock
Llathem: The Lone Wolf extended 2 port barrels do not effect the front sight. This is because the ports are beyond the muzzle.
M1a65: I am sorry, we do not offer a 400CB chambering at this time. If there was more cooperation between Corbon and Lone Wolf it possibly could happen.
FYI: Our G30 barrels hit the floor this week. We have them in stock length, extended 2 port, threaded and 107mm for the Canadians.
Our G20 barrels in 40 S&W and 357 Sig chambering are available now.
Our G20 barrels in 9x25 chambering will be shipped to us next week. I expect to start shipping them out the following week.
