Question for you Glock guys . . .

Can a G19 function with a G17 barrel? I like the 19 better than the 17 but I've always wondered if I could put a 17 barrel in it. I've seen some with the threaded barrels (completely different thing, I understand) and I like how it looks when it extends from the front of the slide. This would be mostly for looks. Maybe I get a bit more velocity, maybe it's more accurate but I'll be looking at it a lot more than I'm shooting it so those two things are less important.

No the 17 barrel is slightly different. The G19 barrel will work in the G26 however. If you want a longer extended length barrel for your G19 just get an aftermarket barrel like a KKM or Storm Lake. I prefer keeping the Glock barrel for carry though.

Lone wolf also makes longer barrels for the g19, in threaded, ported, and unthreaded and unported. I find my g19 to be very accurate, probably more so than I am.

I wouldn't buy a Lone Wolf if they were the only company making barrels.

Too tight of a chamber, short throated, to get most lead loads to work properly you have to pay to have the throat opened up or seat the bullet super short, stupid logo, have to pay to have stupid logo blind marked, quality not on par with other barrels, made in Korea, owners don't care if you have issues and arrogant. Sure I missed a few.

I will disagree with you. I have shot loads of lead 147gr Roger's out of a LW 9mm barrel and have had no issues what-so-ever. I also feel their quality is top notch and accurate and their threads are cut perfectly.

Do you have any proof that their barrels are made in Korea?

Their barrels are endorsed by many suppressor manufacturers for what that is worth.

Yes, the logo is stupid.
