| This maybe a total newbie question, though I just want to be sure. I own 2 glocks (G20 and G35). Now if I was to buy replacement slides for different calibers (all the internals), say a 21 slide complete to put on the G20 receiver that would be perfectly fine correct? Would work without a hitch? As long as the slides are the same dimension, etc.... A G34 for the G35 frame, etc...? Thanks |
| The g-20 and 21 slides will fit on each other and if he's changing them as complete slides they will function with the proper mags the extractor stays with the slide change over,but again after all is said and done really for a few extra bucks buy the whole gun and dont waste time swaping. |
| Well that's the thing, I am getting a slide for a really good deal, under $120, barely used. I figure once I add all the parts and barrel it will still be quite less than a complete upper (new), so that is my thinking. The extractor will be for the 45acp not the 10mm, so this will work? Thanks |

The ejectors are where you will have issues, if any. The ejectors all start from the same point on the receiver and then either: come straight out-med size bend in(right)- smaller calibers or out (left) to accomodate the large calibers. Like the above have said. By the time you purchase an upper 300+ used or 400-ish new, you could almost buy the whole pistol. scottMO |

I'd have to say that some armorers need to do a little remedial work. he There are aftermarket barrels available from around $70 to over $200. Check out the gun parts listings on Glocktalk. Sometimes you can find really good deals on Glock factory replacement barrels. |
