Reliability of Glock 33 9mm Conversion Barrel?

I've decided to try a 9mm conversion barrel in my Glock 33 Gen3. Has anyone made this conversion and is there any feed, extraction or accuracy problems? Since I have the G33, I can't justify buying a G26 or another 9mm subcompact until I try this conversion. Comments please.

I have NOT run that setup personally.
I do know of a few people that have ran a 9mm barrel in the G27.
They had no issues other than one guy, who had brass that would eject in an odd pattern.
Other than that they seemed to run fine. If you really want to make it (right) you could buy a 9mm Ejector and a 9mm extractor.
Which I say would cure the odd ejection course of the brass. Both the people I know used a Storm Lake Barrel.

My experience has been converting a Glock 27 to a 9mm using the stainless Lone Wolf conversion barrel. Only used for range not for carry!

No issues have developed. In fact it seems to "lock up tighter" and produce tighter groups than a 26 I tried with a stock barrel. I like the little extra forward weight of the thicker conversion barrel vs the stock .40 barrel.

My experience convinced me to move from .40 sub-compact to 9mm sub-compact i.e. better double tap results for me.
