Was it a build up of the finish or to much material?

a gen 5 17 aftermarket guid rod will likely come with an adapter, just use it without the adapter to fit gen3.
I'll look into that

Any particular reason you want to build this vs buying?
I wanted this configuration and bought a SS MR920L.
Just a bunch of random parts I had sitting around.

...or you could just buy a Glock 49. Larry Vickers leaked pics of this a year ago.
The only reason I'm trying this is because I have everything other than the barrel and guide rod (just ordered both)

Found online:
This keeps coming up alot lately, so I figured I’d give a quick explanation, and hopefully this clears it up for people.
Yes, a Gen 3 17/34 slide will work on a Gen 3 19 compatible frame, with some changes.
Three, to be exact.
The only issues that stop this from happening naturally are the locking block/barrel lug mating, the guide rod length change from alleviating the barrel issue, and the gap between the end of the slide and the frame (that covers the recoil spring/guide rod). These can be accounted for.
Issue #1: The Barrel
You can alleviate the barrel issue by either:
A) Getting a Lone Wolf Distributors barrel (19l for the 17, 19xl for the 34)
Getting the Brownell’s 19 Long barrel (and their 19 long slide... only 17 length, no 34 available), or
C) Getting a Gen 5 17/34 barrel (the lug pattern on the Gen 5 matches the locking block of the 19, and does fit properly inside a gen 3 17/34 slide).
Issue #2: The Guide Rod
Due to changing the lug spacing, you will need the extended guide rod from Lone Wolf (example here)... with the lug pattern shift on the barrel, the standard guide rod will come up a little short. (Shout out to u/PopPopSun and u/gammaRay-Ray for pointing this out)
Issue #3: The Slide-To-Frame Gap
To solve, get the Lone Wolf Distributors slide adapter (link).
Those are the only changes you need to make. Otherwise it’s just getting the appropriate parts (gen 3, with upper parts matching the slide, and lower parts matching the frame).
Hope that sorts things out for everybody. Have fun building.
I found all that....lone wolf doesn't offer that guide rod any longer.
My thinking is if a gen 5 19 and 17 have the same length guide rod, and a gen 3 19 slide fits a gen 5 19 frame why wouldn't the gen 3 19 guide rod work?
At work we have gen 5 47s and 19s. The slides are interchangeable. Those frames also take a gen 3 19 slide with no modification.

Starting a new build and trying to see if I'm thinking this out properly.
Build would be:
Gen 3 19 lower
Gen 3 17 slide
Gen 5 17 barrel
Gen 3 19 guide rod (this is where I'm not sure what part to use)
So basically a 19L. If anybody knows if this will work, I'd be grateful! If these parts don't work together and you know what I could use I'd also be grateful for that!

Would an aluminum spacer work the same? Or would a different material work better?

The shroud goes all the way back to the barrel extension. If you want to add something to the end of a 10inch barrel it would be more like a muzzle break.
You could put a shroud over the entire 10inch, all the way back.

What are you looking for?

Did you fill the mags then loosen the mag clamp in the middle and then tighten it back up?
I thought mine came with instructions to do that to align to two halves of the mag body.
-
The els clip isn't attached to the mag, it's attached to a piece of kydex that's attached at the junction point on the 19 round mags.
-
Maybe a little under gassed? Or the gas block misaligned?

They have an all tin coated bolt that is out of stock. They seem to get stock in every few weeks.
