I recently recieved a standard lone wolf barrel for my G19. My first problem was I think I was confused and assumed the logo was on the bottom part, completely my fault. The barrel looks really good but I decided to install it last night to see how it will fit. The problem is when I install this barrel the slide seems to wobble alot, almost as if this barrel might be too big or something. The wobble is most noticable at the rear of the slide. Any one else experience this ?

I will attempt to call them on monday and try to get these two problems fixed. I assume they do returns/exchanges on parts that have not been used/defective parts ? Other than that my experience with this company has been awesome.

1 Yes you can order any Lone Wolf barrel "blind marked". The wolf will be on the barrel lug. You can also have any barrel black oxide for $24.95

2 For the life of me I can not envision what you are trying to explain. If the barrel & slide lock up (flush at the top) there is not a problem. Go run some ammo through it. FYI: All Glock pistols exhibit slide wobble to one degree or another. Is the wobble so excessive that you think it is dangerous? I have never see a situation like this but what the heck, ya never know?
If the slide will not go into battery the barrel needs to be fitted. This is a 1 minute job that is easily performed. If you are not comfortable filing on the barrel we will do it for you.

Hey thanks for the response. I apologize for not being to explain the wobble problem more clearly. Simply put when I use the standard glock barrel the slide doesn't move at all. When I use my brand new Lone Wolf barrel I get a wobble. Do you think if I put a few rounds through the barrel it would tighten up and form to my gun ?? Thanks again.

BTW every thing else I got from you guys rocks.

Unload the gun and cycle the action a few times. Now hold the slide only using your fingers and palm of one hand and wiggle the frame with the other hand. Your going to feel slide wobble. Its no big deal, all Glock pistols do it.
If this is what your trying to describe then there is no worries. I can not explain why it seems to wobble more with the LWD barrel but I know it will shoot just as good as the factory barrel.
