Glock 17 outer barrel issue..

[matt491]

Okay, posted this in the wrong section before. Hopefully I can get some help here..


Alright, I need your input people. I bought a new outer barrel for my KSC Glock 17, one with an adapter for a silencer (cause silenced glocks are sex) But it wont fit into the slide. The barrel is slightly bigger than the old one (in diameter) and doesn't fit through the hole in the slide.
My question is this. Better to sand down the outer barrel itself or the hole in the front of the slide?

I was thinking sand the barrel cause if I sand the hole in the slide, my stock outer barrel will have serious wobble to it (cause it fits fine right now, slides smoothly through).

Input!?

Hmm I had the same problem when I use to have a Hi-capa metal slide

Seems like sometimes the manufaturers make it too tight

I'd only suggest to sanding the slide IF you are going to forever use that outer barre

...too late, sanded the barrel. Seems to be working great now. Gotta love the dremel..

Aw well as long as it shoots

Better get it ready for Defcon, we'll have some more Pistoleros

Got the mac11 now too from Pusangani, as well as my shotty still. so I'm good for pistol and shotties only.
