KSwift Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) My Google-Fu has failed me thus far. I can't figure out this supposedly factory Glock barrel/slide combo, it's like a sight tracker without the benefit of a sight tracker. Why? It doesn't look like the KKM/Caspian/AroTek ported barrel slide combos, and the barrel has the factory Glock stamp and the serial number matches the slide. The whole idea plus the little bit of black left on the front lip of the barrel hood next to "Auto" makes me think it isn't factory, but who does this porting?

Kraj Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 These are just guesses. Could it be 45 acp and a slide cut up to go with a ported barrel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 just a rib added to the factory barrel then ported, and the slide cut up. similiar to what aerotek did , but aerotek was cleaner looking with just holes above the ports, not a big cutout.

KSwift Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Sounds good, wanted to triple check since the guy was adamant that it's factory. Edited February 24, 2015 by KSwift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braxton1 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Back when Wil Schuemann was getting his start (late-80s/early-90s), he marketed a Hybrid Rib. You took his rib and welded it onto your barrel, then drilled out the bottom of his cone-shaped ports into the bore. Back then, if you were 30th A at the USPSA Nationals (and probably every other placing in every other class), you got a rib in a bag. I gave mine away to a 45 shooter who still owns the gun that he installed it on. The above-pictured gun appears to be a modified Schuemann Hybrid. The rib appears to be cut down so that it doesn't stick out of that cutout and doesn't require a narrow channel to be cut where the front sight is located to clear the rib during cycling.

mwc Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Looks like something Aro-Tek was doing years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
