thebuns1 4,323 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 this coming tax time, im going to be using my return to aquire a suppressor for my glock 23. im pretty excited about the idea. im looking at picking up a silencerco osprey 40. my only issue is the barrel selection. should i go lone wolf or storm lake? anyone use either? or is there any others that you guys can recommend, and for what reasons? i like the customizing options in the storm lake, but its a bit more than the lone wolf. or does glock offer any factory threaded barrels? thanks guys.

Shandlanos 1,470 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 I don't know anything about storm lake barrels, but I've seen plenty of lone wolf barrels, and have a threaded Glock 19 barrel made by them that works just fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thebuns1 4,323 Posted December 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 well after some searching, i found a few sites that sell factory threaded glock barrels, but they are only in .45 and 9mm. and from what i could gather, they are relativley new to the US. the storm lake barrles look pretty nice, but i dont know if they are any better over the lone wolf for thier higher price. i just noticed that they are in lenoir city, Tn, i just may swing by there and check them out in person. only about 25 mins. from me.

sunnybean 939 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 I'm like Shandlanos. No experience with the Storm Lake barrels but I have a few Lone Wolf threaded and threaded conversion barrels (.40 to 9mm) that work well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thebuns1 4,323 Posted December 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 cool. silencerco sent me an email and said they recommend the lone wolf, so ill prolly pick up one of theirs. appreciate it fellas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MCASgt New River 10,036 Posted December 4, 2011 Report Share Posted December 4, 2011 +1 Lone Wolf. I used to have one on my G19 that I used and looks better IMHO being stainless too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kevin.rose0@gmail.com 62 Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 I've seen reports that the newer Lone Wolf stuff isn't nearly as good as what they used to sell. But that's all second hand, I've never replaced the factory barrel in a Glock. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zimmthumps 2 Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 I just got my first threaded barrel for my G17 and it was a lone wolf. I compared the specs and couldn't find any negative reviews to make me spend 50% more on the storm lake. I don't like the wolf logo - but that still wasn't quite enough to make me spend that much more for just asthetics... CTD had the best price when I was looking last month. ($110) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

($110) Annoying as hell that they charge extra, but you can have them place the logo on the underside of the barrel. Not sure how much extra, I think $10-$25. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thebuns1 4,323 Posted December 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 well the logo really doesnt bother me, as i was going to prolly go with the black model anyways. but havent decided just yet. i may go stainless just for something to change up the look of the pistol. thanks for the input guys.
