jcshelto Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 (edited) I wanted to turn my Glock 34 into a suppressor host and several factors led my to a threaded 17L barrel from Lone Wolf (The 34 Threaded was sold out), longer is generally better with suppress and then the small, but present ballistic advantage.My biggest concern was how it would look. How would a Lone Wolf Threaded 17L barrel look in a 34? I figured it would protrude 1.24 inches. And I collected as many pics as I could and measured their protrusion. What do y'all think? Maybe some one actually has a specific image of a threaded 17L barrel ij a 34. I am imagining it will look the most like the last pic in this thread.I know there is a lot of frivolity in this thread, but I am on staff duty (You military guys will understand)What do you thihk? Threaded 17L Barrel in a 34? I am excited, but there is some trepidation.Slide1 by MAJU Photography, on FlickrSlide2 by MAJU Photography, on FlickrSlide3 by MAJU Photography, on FlickrSlide4 by MAJU Photography, on FlickrSlide5 by MAJU Photography, on FlickrSlide6 by MAJU Photography, on FlickrSlide7 by MAJU Photography, on Flickr Edited November 23, 2013 by jcshelto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G17 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 (edited) With it already being extended that far and then adding a can on top of that it just seems so long. I'm wondering if the barrel would have any trouble unlocking considering how far the weight is going to be out on the front of it. I'm no expert on suppressors so i can't tell you whether it will work or not, but i can tell you that i think that gap will look silly and i think you may regret it if you do. Try finding a used 34 threaded or look into storm lake or kkm. Good luck, i want to see pics when you get it all sorted out.

I didn't think about the length and barrel lockup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcshelto Posted November 24, 2013 Author Share Posted November 24, 2013 I have decided to stay the course -- Lonewolf says the barrels are .70 different. Besides, I still want a 17L. Pics and range reports with be forthcomigng. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polymerfeelsweirdman Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 could always look at kkm/storm lake/bar sto/other when I read the title I thought you were going to have a stock 17L barrel threaded for a 34. that could be another way to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G17 Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 What model of suppressor do you plan on using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcshelto Posted November 24, 2013 Author Share Posted November 24, 2013 (edited) What model of suppressor do you plan on using? Osprey 9mm. It should clear the .245 Warren sight just enough to be usaboe. Edited November 24, 2013 by jcshelto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcshelto Posted November 24, 2013 Author Share Posted November 24, 2013 The thing is -- this can't be a dedicated suppressor gun. It has to remain my production gun, which is going to be very difficult. I am gonna have to strip some parts off and transform it from a super 'tacticool' gun to a production competition gun. I even ordered a flash hider until I get the suppressor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
