Glock 32 Conversion

Love my Glock 32, love the size, capacity, and the .357 sig round. I just am not a big fan of paying double for .357 ammo that I would for 9mm. So I picked up a Storm Lake G32 9mm conversion barrel and a factory G19 magazine.

Took it to the range today and put about 200 rounds through it with not a single malfunction. It shot nice tight groups, and the lack of recoil (compared to the .357 rounds) was a nice bonus.

If anyone was on the fence about a conversion barrel I'd say go for it. I've heard good things about Bar-Sto and others, but haven't tried them... so far, so good with the Storm Lake.

Now you can practice with the 9mm barrel and carry with the 357sig barrel, if you carry. I have a G32C and I love it and carry it often.

That's what I've been doing, and it's worked great so far. I've been doing the bulk of my practice with 9mm ammo, and finishing up with a couple mags of .357 to stay used to the added recoil.

Saving me some $$ at the range, and still get to use what I consider to be a phenomenal round the rest of the day in my carry weapon.

f.y.i. I had read mixed reviews about the conversion barrels in general... so far with a G19 mag and G32 9mm conversion barrel in my G32, about 1,000 rounds through it without problems.
