Re: who knows about glock 27 conversion to a 9mm

I had a black 27; bought all the parts to convert
(barrel, ejector, extractor, spring loaded bearing, magazines) so it would basically be a 26.
Then someone wanted a 26, and he bought a green 26 at a gun show, so we traded and I like green.
If you don't replace ejector, you get beaned in the head/eye by hot brass ... ok for "fun" but distracting if needed during EDC
9mm Extractor/spring loaded bearing are reliability things you probably want if using every day carry
I never finished converting the 27, so I couldn't tell you, but for total reliability for every day carry, I'd just get a 26 if you want 9mm
but "just for fun" all you "need" is the conversion barrel .... and eye protection ... and scalp protection if you are bald (hot brass isn't fun)
I get Lone Wolf BLIND MARKED (no visible engraving or wolf pictures) barrels. Others are comparable.
Just my opinion, like I said, I never finished the conversion on that 27 ... I love my green 26 though.
