What model Glock did you happen to get the Storm Lake barrel for Lefty O? Did you buy it direct from Storm Lake or else where?

On another note, I went to the Storm Lake website and in the order area it specifies it is drop in, but under the FAQ section and it says this for the question; What is the difference between drop-in and over-sized?

Answer
). "A drop-in barrel can typically be installed by the user with little to no fitting. Glock part tolerances are generally held quite well, and as a result will almost always allow for an easy drop-in. Some firearm tolerances are not held as well. As a result, the barrels we sell for these models must be designated as semi drop-in barrel and may occasionally require the aid of a gunsmith. All drop-in and semi drop-in Storm Lake Barrels are manufactured with the intent to provide the closest tolerance lock up for best accuracy while allowing for the least amount of required fitting. If your purchased barrel does not drop in, we recommend that you take the product to an experienced gunsmith to fit it. Please note that we cannot accept returns on barrels which have been modified."

As much as I'd love to see the difference a ported would or might make, I may have to wait for the time being. My stock barrel is still in great shape. Not a think wrong with it. Just wanted to see if anyone had bought one for their Glock and if it dropped right in or not without having to take it to a gunsmith.

I'll have to think about this one for a while.
